torquay - Wilkinson Williams

Wren Retail Park was constructed in 1994 and comprises
four well-configured modern retail warehouse units providing
accommodation totalling 47,968 sq ft of ground floor gross
internal area. The units are arranged in a single terrace with
Units 3 and 4 being set further back than Units 1 and 2.
The units present well and are of steel portal frame construction
with masonry clad elevations up to an eaves height, which
internally is 5.50 metres. Each unit benefits from an attractive
entrance feature of two stanchions enclosed in brickwork
supporting a pitched roof incorporating the tenant’s signage.
Unit 4 was extended by 5,005 sq ft in 2003.
The scheme benefits from flexible accommodation which has
the potential to be subdivided in the future. Internally, the units
are regular in shape and have been fitted out to the tenants’
specifications. The Next unit benefits from a full cover mezzanine.
There is a small mezzanine area in the Boots unit and the
Carpetright unit has a full cover protected mezzanine area of
10,200 sq ft.
The customer car park, located at the front of the units, provides
spaces for 203 cars, giving a car parking ratio of 1:236 sq ft.
The service yard is located to the rear of the units.
Access to the park is via Browns Bridge Road off Riviera
Way, which also provides access to ‘The Willows’. The shared
access helps to integrate the two schemes, providing a modern
shopping destination. The retail offer is typical of a shopping
park, albeit on a smaller scale; there are two dominant anchors
providing a combination of fashion and foodstore retail floor
space.
The total site area of Wren Retail Park is circa 5.4 acres,
providing a total site cover of 20%.
