An opportunity to acquire a restaurant/leisure space in the centre of Newport is on the market with specialist property adviser Christie + Co.

The site, in the city’s Clarence Place, was formerly Italian brasserie Rossini’s and according to Christie + Co’s Sophia Sangchi the premises could lend itself to a variety of different offerings.

She said: “The restaurant space occupied the ground floor of Clarence House, a ten-storey mixed office development on the banks of the River Usk, which includes the offices of the blue chip companies and Welsh Assembly ministers.

"As such, the space offers a new tenant the opportunity to establish an excellent coffee, breakfast, lunch and dinner proposition with a ready-made catchment — and with very limited competition nearby.”

A new lease for the unit, which offers around 1,700 square feet of floor space, is available at an initial rent of £18,000 per annum.
