A multi-purpose freehold property in Swindon town centre, offering a ground-floor commercial unit and a fully refurbished one-bedroom flat above. The shop extends to approximately 62 sqm and the first-floor apartment currently lets for £800 pcm, providing immediate rental income for an investor or owner-operator.
There is clear upside: a double-storey store-room at the rear could be converted into an additional one-bedroom house, subject to planning, increasing rental or sale value. Off-street parking and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity suit modern tenants and small businesses.
Be realistic about the drawbacks. The site sits in a high-crime ward and the rear outbuilding is derelict and will need repair or demolition. Any conversion depends on planning approval and the small plot limits extensive expansion. These factors should be considered when assessing yield and refurbishment budgets.
Overall this is a straightforward income-producing asset with short-term rental return and medium-term development potential — suitable for buy-to-let investors or businesses seeking a street-facing shop with living accommodation above.
