Description

A freehold mixed-use property in central Burgess Hill, comprising a ground-floor commercial unit and a two-bedroom split-level maisonette above. The commercial space is let on an FRI lease, with two years remaining, and the tenant has indicated a wish to stay. The maisonette is let on an assured shorthold tenancy. The combined current rental income is stated as £40,800 per annum.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

58out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a mixed-use investment with income already in place: the salon is fitted out and operational, while the maisonette is let and has had energy-efficiency upgrades including an air-source heat pump and insulation. At £402/sq ft, the asking price is 6.2% below the local average, which supports the value case. The overall score is still a weaker 58/100: the estimated all-in cost using the renovation midpoint leaves only a 3.9% margin against the implied current local average value, so the economics offer limited headroom rather than a clear bargain.

The residential areas provide a light improvement project, with scope to refresh dated finishes and flooring and improve the paved rear service area and weathered timber storage. The listing also notes previous, now-lapsed consent to reconfigure and extend the maisonette into two units, subject to planning. The stated renovation range is £5,500–£18,000.

Key opportunities

  • Existing combined rental income of £40,800 per annum from the commercial unit and maisonette.
  • Refresh the dated residential finishes and flooring, and tidy or improve the enclosed rear service area.
  • Explore the potential for reconfiguring the maisonette into two units, subject to obtaining planning consent.
