Summary - 159, OLD ROAD CO15 3AU
1 bed 1 bath Commercial Property
Freehold takeaway and 1-bed flat in busy Clacton secondary parade, two parking spaces.
Freehold retail with self-contained 1‑bed flat above
A compact mixed-use freehold in central Clacton-on-Sea, offered with a ground-floor takeaway/retail unit and a self-contained one-bedroom flat above. The ground floor is already extensively fitted as a takeaway, producing strong roadside visibility and regular passing trade in a busy secondary shopping location about 0.6 miles from the pier.
The property includes a small rear yard providing space for approximately two off-street parking spaces and benefits from gas central heating to the flat, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — practical features for lettings or owner-occupation. The building footprint is modest (circa 575 sq ft) and suits investors seeking an income-producing asset or a buyer prepared to run a small retail business with living accommodation above.
Important considerations: the area is classified as very deprived with high local crime and constrained renting demographics, which can affect rental values and tenant demand. The existing takeaway fit-out may limit alternative uses without reconfiguration or licensing changes. The flat and shop are mid‑20th century construction and will likely need routine maintenance or targeted refurbishment to maximise rent or resale value.
This freehold presents clear value for buyers targeting seaside town investments or owner-operators wanting an immediate trading location. Buyers should budget for maintenance, consider licensing implications tied to the takeaway fit-out, and factor local demand dynamics when assessing rental projections.
