First shop of its kind is coming to Plymouth city centre

Cannabis

In a former life, it’s been a coffee shop, milkshake bar, a streetwear fashion retailer and even Plymouth’s first shop specializing in selling products derived from cannabis plants – but now Plymouth city center’s quirkiest building is about to start anew as a high-tech estate agents’.

The tiny octagonal building, which sits just outside Drake Circus mall and belongs to the nearby Methodist Central Hall, has been rented by ambitious Plymouth property firm SW4 Group Ltd.

The company is giving the structure a complete overhaul and turning it into a sales office, complete with glowing green LED lighting and the latest in touch screen technology, which will allow property browsers to use the window like it is a giant iPad.

It is getting a white and green paint job too, which means it’s goodbye to the large mural of reggae star Bob Marley which had adorned the building.

SW4 will station one or two staff in the new office throughout a six-day week and are keen for it to attract students from the University of Plymouth, just opposite, who are looking for rental properties.

But company director James Deacon stressed the “accommodation station”, as it is being termed, is not just for student lettings.

SW4 Group covers a wide range of property interests involving property from construction to sales and letting. This includes development, maintenance, building management, servicing, lettings and sales, across a variety of markets including finding homes for families, workers, visitors, holidaymakers, and students.
