Summary - 161, BLACKPOOL OLD ROAD FY6 7RS
1 bed 1 bath Mixed Use
Two tenanted units plus rear garage offering immediate income and uplift potential.
Prominent glazed retail frontage with high pedestrian passers-by
A compact, income-producing mixed-use asset on a busy Poulton-le-Fylde parade, appealing to investors seeking immediate yield and hands-on management potential. The ground-floor commercial unit benefits from prominent glazed frontage and steady footfall; a separately accessed one-bedroom apartment above is independently let, providing two distinct income streams. A rear garage and forecourt parking add letting flexibility and separate value.
The brochure states combined rental potential of approximately £18,720 pa (exclusive), equivalent to around a 10% gross return at the asking price. The property sits in a densely residential, affluent suburb with very low crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — factors that support ongoing rental demand.
Buyers should note practical limitations: external amenity is minimal (no garden), the building will likely need periodic modernisation to maximise rents, and tenure details are unknown. Both ground-floor and first-floor units are currently tenanted; sale will be subject to existing tenancies and any assignment terms. The garage is owner-occupied but can be vacated on completion if required.
This is a straightforward, city-edge investment where value can be increased through active management, minor refurbishment and letting the garage. Ideal for a buyer wanting immediate income with modest refurbishment upside in a sought-after local parade.
