11 Ramsden Street occupies the ground floor and basement of an attractive three-storey stone building on Ramsden Street. It is uniquely positioned as the only available established premises with a frontage looking onto Huddersfield's new public square.
The square forms the centrepiece of Our Cultural Heart, Kirklees Council's £262 million town centre regeneration programme. Phase 1, which comprises a new food hall, community library hub and public square, is due to open summer 2026. Phase 2 will bring a new museum and art gallery to the adjacent building on Princess Alexandra Walk, openings in 2029. Regular events and markets are planned for the square throughout the year.
This is an exceptional opportunity for an operator looking to establish a business in what will become one of Yorkshire's most visited town centre destinations, at an entry price point that reflects the current moment rather than the location's future value.
The ground floor extends to 97.2 sqm (1,046 sqft) with a substantial basement of 90.4 sqm (973 sqft) in good, clean condition, well suited to operators needing preparation, storage or ancillary space requirements. Previously occupied by Skipton Building Society, the premises are in good repair throughout.
Huddersfield is a thriving university town with approximately 20,000 students at the University of Huddersfield, whose main Queensgate campus is five minutes' walk away. The town benefits from excellent connectivity, Huddersfield railway station (TransPennine Express, Leeds-Manchester) is an 8 minute walk, the bus station is 5 minutes away, and the M62 (Junctions 23 & 24) is easily accessible by road. A £27 million transformation of the bus station is also underway, further improving the pedestrian environment between the station and the new square - a route which passes directly in front of this property.
Incentives are available subject to tenant covenant strength.
