Large L-shaped plot circa 0.212 acres with flexible layout potential
An exceptionally flexible town-centre commercial property on St John Street, Newport Pagnell, offering circa 79 sqm ground-floor space with loft storage and a large L-shaped plot (c.0.212 acres). The ground floor is Class E and was formerly a well-regarded restaurant, giving immediate scope for retail, food & beverage, health & beauty or office use. The site benefits from private off-street parking for the unit plus customer parking directly outside and a free car park nearby.
The building can be adapted: there is potential to split the accommodation into up to four separate units, combine neighbouring units, or create a separate residential flat above (subject to planning). That flexibility creates multiple income or owner-occupier strategies — operate from the ground floor and let the upper floors, or redevelop and re-let individual units to diversify rental income.
Buyers should note material issues plainly: the property has been vacant for some years and internal condition varies from fair to derelict in parts; façade and roof require remedial works. The site has a medium flooding risk and the local area records above-average crime levels — both factors for operational planning and insurance. EPC rating D. Tenure options include freehold sale or a new 10–20 year lease with new titles.
This is a practical opportunity for investors or owner-occupiers seeking a centrally located, flexible commercial asset in a historic market town with strong local amenities and good motorway links. Allow budget for refurbishment and consider planning advice for residential conversion or unit subdivision to maximise value.
