This double-fronted freehold shop on Princes Drive offers a straightforward investment with immediate income and flexible commercial potential. The ground-floor retail area of about 1,153 sq ft includes basement storage, staff facilities and large display windows that suit a variety of uses. It currently produces approximately £7,800 per annum in rent.
The property sits in the town centre, within easy walking distance of the train station, A55 and local amenities — footfall and accessibility are genuine strengths. Upper floors are reported to contain three self-contained flats, providing further long-term asset potential (buyers should verify titles and occupancy).
Important practical issues: the building is single glazed throughout, lies in a very deprived area with a high local crime rate, and will likely require some refurbishment to modernise heating and insulation. These factors suppress capital value but also create scope for value-add refurbishment or repositioning for alternative commercial uses.
Suitable for an investor seeking a low-management income stream and redevelopment upside. Confirm tenancy details, service arrangements, and any planning or licensing constraints before purchase.
