Another substantial commercial property has been put onto the market in Penrith this week, with the former Vasey’s furniture store on Great Dockray now being offered for sale.
The prominent town centre building, long known locally as Vasey’s, is being marketed with offers in the region of £175,000 for the freehold premises with vacant possession, which extend to around 5,102 square feet. Arranged over three floors, the property includes ground and first floor retail space with additional storage on the second floor.
Vasey’s furniture store closed in early 2025 after 80 years of trading in the town, bringing to an end a long-standing presence on Great Dockray and a business familiar to generations of local residents.
The properties location on Great Dockray, means the building benefits from a strong roadside frontage with time-limited on-street parking and public car park directly opposite.
Although the property sits within the Penrith Town Centre Conservation Area, and surrounding buildings on either side are listed building the vases store is NOT listed. The property is described as requiring updating and modernisation, with agents indicating it may suit a range of uses subject to planning consent.
A number of substantial town centre properties are currently for sale and others are expected to be put up for sale in the next few months following closures.
The property is being Carlisle based Walton Goodland.
