A closed down supermarket with an "unattractive appearance" could be turned into new flats. The old Co-op food shop on Carter Lane, Mansfield could be turned into apartments, if new plans are approved.
The property consists of a ground floor shop and first floor level previously used for storage and ancillary office space. The fresh proposal would split the ground floor and first floor into six self-contained apartments.
A planning document has said Co-operative retail received no interest in the building’s purchase at the time of sale or lease, with them putting it to auction three years after moving to new premises. The applicants have argued the most viable scheme for the building to be brought back into use would be to convert it into a residential space.
