A versatile freehold mixed-use property on a busy Burton Stone Lane parade, offered with a ground-floor lock-up shop and a self-contained 2/3-bedroom apartment above. The shop has two large display windows, rear store and W.C., while the apartment has its own entrance, kitchen/diner, living room/bedroom and two further bedrooms — suitable for rental income or owner-occupier use with on-site accommodation.
Key strengths are proximity to the city centre and local amenities, plus mains gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and a small rear courtyard. The building’s mid-20th century brick construction provides a robust, conventional layout that will suit straightforward commercial or residential conversion and ongoing mixed-use occupation.
Notable considerations: the property sits in a high-crime area and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, which may mean improvement costs for insulation and energy efficiency. Glazing predates 2002 and some updating is likely. The plot is small and internal accommodation is modest, so growth relies on rental optimisation or targeted refurbishment rather than expansion.
This is a pragmatic opportunity for an investor seeking immediate rental potential or a business owner wanting private accommodation above premises. The freehold tenure and city-centre access are practical advantages, but factor in refurbishment and security improvements when assessing return on investment.
