Summary - 187, FAIRMILE ROAD BH23 2LE
1 bed 1 bath Retail Property (out of town)
Mixed-use freehold with parking and potential subject to planning.
Prominent corner position on busy Fairmile Road and main bus route
A prominent corner mixed-use freehold on Fairmile Road, offering good roadside visibility on a busy main route into Christchurch. The ground floor provides a return-frontage retail unit (circa 226 sq ft) with a short forecourt and separate store, while a self-contained maisonette above offers ground-floor living, kitchen and three first-floor rooms. Forecourt parking and an established long rear garden (approx. 125 ft x 35 ft) add practical value and redevelopment interest (S.T.P.P.).
The shop is currently producing a modest income (£6,600 pax) but the lease has expired and the tenant is holding over with no right to renew, so income is not guaranteed. The residential accommodation is serviceable with UPVC double glazing but is dated and will need modernisation; the maisonette EPC is Band G and the property may require energy upgrades. Council tax is noted as quite expensive for the residential element.
This freehold will suit investors wanting a town-centre retail let with a flat above, or an owner-occupier seeking combined shop/flat. There is potential for redevelopment or change of use subject to planning permission; any buyer should obtain professional planning and building advice. Overall plot depth is generous for the area but the internal footprint is modest, so refurbishing or reconfiguring space is a realistic value-add route.
