A CHUNK of Wisbech High Street – including one shop that’s closed and another that may close- has been put up for sale.

Savills confirmed today they have been asked by a private buyer to sell neighbouring units, one formerly occupied by M&Co and the other which is currently open and run by QS.

The agents said the guide price for both properties is �700,000 or alternatively they are each available to rent for �35,000 per annum.

Ben Rudd of the Peterborough office of Savills said that QS could “quite possibly close” if a buyer was found.

He said the two adjacent retail units in Wisbech provide approximately 8,335 sq ft (774 sq m) over ground and first floor, with a gross frontage of 66 ft (20m).

Mr Rudd said: “These two units offer huge potential for developers and owner-occupiers alike with the possibility, subject to planning, of combining the units and expanding to the rear and to the side of the property.”
