Lot 28 Landmark Freehold Commercial Building Over Four Floors With Rear Vehicular AccessAuction Date:
7th May 2026
4 High Street, Ventnor, Isle Of Wight, PO38 1RY
Key Features
Situated in the very heart of Ventnor's pretty Victorian town centre, this landmark commercial building has served as an ironmongers and hardware store for many years until its recent closure. The building has accommodation over four floors including a basement. There is the significant advantage of pedestrian and vehicular access from the rear of the building via Pound Lane.
The whole building offers significant scope and potential for a number of future uses, subject to all the necessary consents being obtainable. The upper floors in particular, would appear to be ripe for residential conversion and it would appear that a residential dwelling has, in the past, previously existed at first floor level.

Storage area.
Ground Floor
