A substantial Grade II listed freehold commercial building in Leominster, arranged over four floors plus a cellar and multiple outbuildings. The property extends to about 5,580–5,607 sqft including outbuildings and benefits from private rear gardens and side access. Long-term tenant (antique shop) is currently in situ, providing immediate rental income and continuity of occupation.
This is a strong acquisition for an investor seeking a large, central high-street asset with conversion or rental upside. The building’s period features—high ceilings, sash windows and exposed historic fabric—are attractive for character-led commercial uses but also mean any alterations will be constrained by Grade II listing and require listed-building consents.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the listed status can limit refurbishment options and increase costs; the basement shows signs of low ceilings and potential damp/mould; and the surrounding area records high crime and very high deprivation, which may affect tenant mix and yields. Mobile signal and broadband are excellent; flood risk is none.
Offered freehold at £210,000, this property suits investors prepared to manage a listed asset with remedial work and to engage with planning/listed-building processes, or an owner-occupier looking for a prominent, historic high-street presence with garden and storage space.
