This is a mixed-use, primarily residential investment property, being sold with vacant possession upon completion (see Tenure Section for details). The property is now ready for a programme of updating and redecoration but offers a fantastic opportunity for investors to create a high-yield multi-let unit.  The ground floor comprises a lock-up shop unit let for £60 pw and a one-bedroom self-contained flat that is let, but the tenant is being rehoused by the council due to a disability. On the first floor is another one-bedroom flat, and the top floor is a two-bedroom flat.  All flats have uPVC double glazing and individual gas boilers for the central heating.  There is also a cellar, which is useful for storage. The upper-floor flats would now benefit from replacing the kitchen and bathroom fittings, redecoration, and new floor coverings. Before becoming vacant, the fully let property produced a gross income of £16,500 p.a with rents not having been increased for many years.
