Retail Property (high Street)Description
A three-storey town-centre retail property comprising a ground-floor shop of approximately 436 sq ft, with two stores of around 125 sq ft and 56 sq ft. Ancillary office and storage areas occupy the first and second floors, with a separate staircase accessed from the front porch. Brick-built stores are also located to the rear. The premises require refurbishment. The upper-floor areas may offer scope for residential conversion, subject to the necessary consents and confirmation of feasibility. Energy rating is to be confirmed.

Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a substantial town-centre project rather than a straightforward house renovation: the listing describes three storeys of retail and ancillary space, with a separate staircase to the upper floors and potential for residential conversion subject to consents and feasibility. The photographed shop areas have dated fittings and finishes, with ceiling staining and damaged finish visible in places; the brick frontage gives the project a clear starting point, while the roof and rear condition are not established by the photos.
The asking price is £180,000, or about £413/sq ft against a local average of £283/sq ft, so it looks expensive on the available price-per-area comparison. The score is therefore a low-opportunity E overall: the separate access and scope to reshape the upper-floor space are interesting, but the price and uncertainty around the works make the numbers difficult to support.
Key opportunities
- Explore reconfiguring the first- and second-floor ancillary areas for residential use, subject to consents and feasibility.
- Use the separate staircase off the front porch to create independent access to the upper floors.
- Refresh the dated shopfront and retail interiors while making a broader plan for the three-storey brick-fronted premises.
Key risks
- Three storeys of retail and ancillary space, with visible damaged finishes and ceiling staining, make this a substantial scope and programme to assess rather than a cosmetic refresh.
- The roof, rear elevation and upper-floor fabric are not established by the available photos.
