A former car dealership in a Wiltshire town has been put on the market.

The former Ford dealership, on the junction between Leigh Road and Laverton Road in Westbury Leigh, just off the A350, has been listed as for sale or for rent on Rightmove.

The site is being marketed by Carter Jonas, who state that the price of the property is available on application.

According to the listing, the dealership is comprised of a purpose-built vehicle showroom and workshops.

Alongside the main showroom, there is another showroom off to the side, and offices and facilities on the floor above.

The workshops’ total area stands at just over 411 square metres and come fully equipped with access via loading doors to the front and side, as well as a welfare area.

In a brochure advertising the property, the agents state that the site is available to rent, but the freehold of the property is also available for purchase.

The brochure adds that the property had recently obtained consent for the demolition of the garage and replacement of nine homes, although this has “recently lapsed”.

Discussing the site, Alison Williams, partner at Carter Jonas, said: “Westbury Leigh offers a practical turnkey opportunity, with showroom space, fitted-out workshops, generous forecourt and yard areas, and the latest MOT facilities.

"This combination also makes it a highly versatile property, offering flexibility for a wide range of occupiers, from self-storage and destination retail to businesses seeking a well-located roadside showroom, while the workshops offer scope for storage or manufacturing.

"The property is available to rent as a whole on in part, or for sale as a whole with vacant possession.”
