Freehold shop with tenant, steady income and walking distance to Rayleigh station — ideal long-term investor pick..
Long-established shop producing £11,000 pa rent
A well-located freehold shop on London Road, Rayleigh, offered with an income-producing tenant on a 4+ year commercial lease. The unit produces £11,000 per year and sits within a busy parade close to the new Wolsley Park development and a short walk to Rayleigh Station — convenient for commuters and passing trade.
The accommodation is substantial for a shop in the town centre: the ground floor (including the outside WC) measures about 973 sq ft (gross internal) within a total property size around 1,100 sq ft. The layout includes a front trading area, back preparation and storage rooms, a service/kitchen area and multiple cold rooms/freezers. The freehold is included in the sale, giving the buyer full control of the property and future income streams.
Important practical notes: several walk-in freezers/chiller cabinets were inaccessible to inspection and any buyer should carry out full due diligence on refrigeration equipment and services. The property is a post‑war, mixed-use terrace on a small plot, so conversion or extension options may be limited. Tenants, lease terms and service arrangements should be checked carefully before purchase.
This is a straightforward investment buy for someone seeking a hands-on commercial freehold in a very affluent, low-crime suburb with good local amenities and transport links. There is obvious potential to review the rent at lease breaks or to re-let (subject to lease status), but purchasers should budget for maintenance or equipment replacement if required.
