West Midlands Commercial Property Agents, Shepherd Commercial bring 22 Watford Road to the open leasehold market this week.

Shepherd Commercial is proud to bring to market an exciting new commercial property opportunity in the heart of Cotteridge, just a stone’s throw from Bournville. Located at 22 Watford Road, Birmingham, B30 1JA, this highly visible ground floor lock-up retail unit offers 1,080 sq ft of versatile space in one of South Birmingham’s most established local parades.

Positioned on the busy Watford Road—immediately off Pershore Road—this stretch benefits from high footfall, strong local amenities, and excellent transport links. It’s an area long favoured by independent traders, service-led operators, and regional brands looking for solid visibility and community access.

This commercial property in Bournville/Cotteridge is a ground floor unit within a traditional two-storey brick terrace. It features a modern, aluminium-framed plate glass shopfront, open plan retail space, and a small rear warehouse/store area. Internally, the shop benefits from solid flooring with thermoplastic tiles, a suspended ceiling, and fluorescent lighting—making it quick to fit out for a wide range of uses.

Whether you’re a retailer, service provider, health or beauty business, café, or startup brand, this flexible space provides a blank canvas in a thriving neighbourhood. It’s particularly suited to businesses looking to embed themselves within the community while benefiting from significant daily passing traffic.

The property is available on a new lease with terms to be agreed, ideally in multiples of 3 years, and is offered at a rent of £20,000 per annum. All mains services are connected, and the premises hold a Rateable Value of £14,250 with an EPC Rating of C (64).
