This distinctive mixed-use property offers a unique opportunity for both residential and commercial investment in a charming village setting. The Grade II listed building includes a spacious three-bedroom apartment on the first floor, which is accessed independently from the side, along with an established village shop occupying the ground floor, secured by a 10-year lease that generates consistent rental income. In addition to these features, the property boasts a sizeable rear garden that presents potential for future development, pending the necessary planning approvals.
Notably, there is an area of ground-floor space that is currently unused; this could be transformed into a self-contained one-bedroom unit or ancillary living space, enhancing rental prospects further. An independent planning appraisal has already been commissioned by the current owners, indicating possibilities for residential development in the garden area. However, it is advised that prospective buyers conduct thorough enquiries regarding planning suitability.
Situated in Mersham, just two miles from Junction 10A of the M20, this property benefits from excellent transport links and community amenities including local shops, pubs, and schools. Ashford International Station is nearby and provides rapid services to London St Pancras.
This property is particularly suitable for cash buyers or those with specialized financing arrangements due to its mixed-use nature.
