6,400 sq ft former museum is up for sale

A buyer is being sought for the former Yorkshire Waterways Museum, in Goole.

Located on Dutch Riverside, accessed from Bridge Street, the property is close to Goole marina and a number of other canal and riverside businesses.

While it functioned as a museum the 6,400 sq ft building was also home to a café, hosted school visits and was used as a starting point for boat trips around the town’s docks and canal.

PPH Commercial is marketing the long leasehold interest to include the buildings for £100,000, on behalf of liquidators representing The Sobriety Project.

The business notes that the premises are environmentally-friendly, with heating provided by a biomass system and photovoltaic roof panels, which would produce an annual net surplus for the future occupier.

Matt Penrose, speaking on behalf of PPH Commercial, said: “The complex was originally erected around 1999 and has been subsequently extended into an attractive and modern museum, which was very popular until its recent closure in May.

“The property benefits from a canal-side mooring of approximately 118 metres and a large visitors’ car park.

“Externally, there is also a landscaped area together with some additional open-sided storage buildings and workshop units – a total site area of approximately 1.4 acres.

“Depending on the proposed use of the building, it could be a superb ready-made business opportunity on a wonderful waterside setting.”
