This rare freehold on Broad Street combines a licensed restaurant and two fully refurbished flats, offering immediate trading and rental income potential in central Swindon. The ground-floor restaurant is set up for late trading (licensed until 2am) with a large open-plan dining area, sizeable rear kitchen, storage and direct access to a garage providing off-road parking.
Upstairs are two self-contained apartments — a three-bedroom and a two-bedroom — refurbished and estimated to produce about £2,050 per month combined. The property’s overall size (approximately 2,136 sq ft) and multi-story layout give flexibility for continued hospitality use, letting as staff accommodation, or a mixed commercial/residential strategy.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly: the area records higher-than-average crime and the shopfront/street-facing elevation shows some wear that may need ongoing maintenance. The plot is small, so external expansion potential is limited and on-site parking is confined to the single garage. Despite a newly refurbished interior in key areas, some external repairs and routine upkeep are likely in a busy city-centre location.
For an investor or operator seeking a ready-to-run business with immediate rental income, this property presents a strong, versatile opportunity. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern business needs, while cheap local council tax and proximity to multiple schools and local amenities add practical advantages for residential lettings or staff housing.
