Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £165,000, this mixed-use property is notably cheap against the local rate: around £151 per sq ft compared with £227, making the asking price a strong entry point. The first- and second-floor apartment has characterful exposed beams, large windows and tidy, serviceable finishes, while the separate commercial space offers scope to adapt its current clinical layout for another suitable use, subject to consents.

The visible accommodation looks broadly usable, so this is a light project focused on making-good and refreshing plainer, more worn areas rather than a major overhaul. The lower-ground commercial space is utilitarian and its condition is less clear, so it is worth assessing that area and the building fabric in person.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire at a strong discount to the local £/sq ft benchmark.
  • Refresh the plainer, worn commercial and lower-ground finishes while retaining the usable apartment accommodation.
  • Explore alternative commercial uses for the ground-floor space, subject to necessary consents.
