Projected 10.3% ROI after refurbishment and conversion works.
Vacant ground-floor commercial unit with conversion potential (subject to planning)
A compact block of four apartments positioned on St. Sepulchre Gate West, within Doncaster city centre, offering a hands-on value play for investors. The ground floor commercial unit is vacant and may be converted to a one‑bed flat subject to planning consent; above is a three‑bed flat requiring full renovation. The whole property totals about 883 sq ft and is chain free, ready to sell at auction.
Projected combined rental income is approximately £1,700 pcm, giving a reported gross yield around 10.3% post‑refurbishment. The property is offered with a buyer’s premium (1% + VAT, minimums apply and 25% of the fee is payable to secure the lot) — factor this into acquisition costs. Tenure is not stated and the sale will be by auction, so purchasers should carry out pre‑purchase legal and survey checks.
Condition is a material consideration: the upper flat needs renovation and the ground floor conversion will require planning approval and building works. The building dates from c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated) and double glazing of unknown age; heating is via a mains gas community scheme. The local area faces high deprivation and very high recorded crime rates — both affect rental demand, tenant mix and insurance costs.
This is a clear opportunity for an experienced investor or developer comfortable with conversion work, planning processes and operating in challenged urban markets. If refurbished and let as projected, the asset offers strong income potential, but buyers must budget for refurbishment, professional fees, auction costs and the wider area risk profile.
