Summary - 12, OXFORD STREET, SCARBOROUGH YO12 7PJ
1 bed 1 bath Retail Property (high street)
Victorian freehold shop with duplex flat — auction sale, chain‑free, investment potential.
Freehold mixed‑use: ground floor shop, one‑bed duplex above
A rare freehold mixed‑use opportunity on Oxford Street, Scarborough: a ground‑floor commercial shop with a spacious one‑bed duplex above. The property is Victorian mid‑terrace stock (c.1900–1929) and offers circa 1,280 sq ft across multiple levels—suitable for an investor seeking a town‑centre asset sold chain‑free at auction.
The shop and flat are offered with vacant possession and no onward chain, simplifying a quick acquisition. The location is central with excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and immediate access to high‑street amenities, shops and public transport — factors that support both retail and rental demand, especially from local students and city workers.
Buyers should note several material considerations: the building dates from the early 20th century, walls are likely uninsulated, glazing install date is unknown and the interior condition has not been inspected. The area shows high crime and very high deprivation indicators, and the neighbourhood profile is a transitional, cosmopolitan student area — these affect tenant mix, rental levels and refurbishment needs.
For investors willing to refurbish, the property offers clear upside: central location, mixed‑use income potential and vacant possession for immediate works. However, budget realistically for upgrades, potential security measures and ongoing management given local socio‑economic and crime statistics. Sale via online auction; terms apply.
