Description
This freehold mixed-use property combines a ground-floor commercial unit with an independently accessed one-bedroom flat above. The commercial space is currently arranged as a café, with an open trading area, commercial kitchen and preparation space, storage, customer WC facilities and rear servicing access. The business is not included in the sale, leaving the purchaser to consider occupation, letting or another use, subject to any required consents.
The flat has a lounge, fitted galley kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom. It is currently let at £600 per calendar month inclusive of utility bills, and the listing says the tenant may remain or the flat may be available with vacant possession. The property also has a glazed shopfront, electric roller shutters, solar panels, a front customer seating area and a gated rear yard with secure storage. On-street parking is available. The listing gives the floor area as 1,120 sq ft and the EPC rating as C.

Grade CPotential opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £170,000, this freehold mixed-use property is priced around 16.6% below the local average per square foot, making the entry price a clear strength. It combines a prominent, glazed café premises with a separate one-bedroom flat above, currently let at £600 per month, so there is scope to improve the property while retaining distinct commercial and residential uses. The flat’s lounge, bedroom and kitchen appear generally usable, and the commercial space has an existing café fit-out; check the kitchen equipment and services, which have not been tested.
The work looks light: the flat bathroom ceiling needs making good, and clearing and tidying the rear yard could improve its presentation. The asking price plus the stated renovation midpoint is £172,750, compared with an implied local-average value of £203,896; this is a comparison with the local average, not a renovated GDV, and excludes fees and stamp duty. Overall, this is a C-grade potential opportunity, with the strongest appeal in its below-average entry price and mixed-use setup.
Key opportunities
- Acquire the mixed-use freehold below the local average price per square foot, with the one-bedroom flat already let at £600 per month.
- Make good the peeling bathroom ceiling and tidy the enclosed rear yard to improve the flat and outdoor presentation.
- Build on the glazed, prominent café frontage and existing commercial preparation fit-out, subject to checking the equipment and services.
