Summary - Preston Street BN1 2HE
2 bed 2 bath Retail Property (high street)
Prime Brighton location near seafront with rising rental income.
Freehold mixed-use building with ground-floor retail and upper maisonette
A rare freehold, mixed-use opportunity in central Brighton offering immediate income and clear upside. The ground-floor retail unit benefits from a prominent high-footfall frontage and a contracted rent increase from £14,000 to £16,400 pa, supporting a strong current yield.
Above the shop is a well-presented, self-contained two-bedroom maisonette arranged over the first and second floors. The flat is ready for continued letting or owner occupation, with bright rooms, high ceilings and traditional Victorian features that appeal to students and young professionals.
This property is chain-free and centrally located, a short stroll from the seafront, restaurants and public transport links—qualities that underpin long-term rental demand. Note the immediate neighbourhood records very high crime levels and is classified as deprived, and the plot is very small; these are material considerations for some operators.
Overall this is a straightforward buy-and-hold investment with rising commercial income, strong rental demand potential in a cosmopolitan student and professional area, and sensible refurbishment or re-letting options to increase value.
