The East Street Meeting Room is situate behind East Street and just off King Street within a commercial and residential area a short distance from Queen Street one of the main shopping streets of the town close to the central amenities. The town of Newton Abbot advanced in the 19th Century due to the number of roads which connected it to other towns in the area and with the coming of the railway, it became a large junction and yard with branch lines to the Teign Valley, Moretonhampstead, Torbay and Kingswear. The residential area encircling the town has and is growing so the modernisation of the site could be of the benefit to the locality. Newton Abbot is within close proximity of Teignmouth and Shaldon and the mouth of the Teign Estuary, Torbay town, Ashburton and Bovey Tracey. There are dual carriageway roads to Torbay and Exeter linking to the A38 and the M5. The property has been used for storage and a workshop for a number of years however the first floor has been unoccupied in recent years. The property would be ideally suited for conversion to residential or refurbished and continued as a commercial unit.
