A substantial town-centre retail investment arranged over ground and first floors, entirely occupied by a long-standing Lloyds Bank tenant since 1986. The unit extends to about 3,322 sq ft with a wide 39ft frontage on Wellfield Road, benefitting from strong local retail neighbours and frequent pedestrian traffic in a busy student and cosmopolitan neighbourhood.
This is offered as a long leasehold interest — a 999-year term from 3 September 2002 at a peppercorn rent — and is VAT-elected. The vendor expects the sale to be treated as a Transfer of a Going Concern (TOGC), so the sale is presented as an income-producing asset with an established covenant and operational continuity.
Investors should note material location factors: the area is classified as very deprived with a high recorded crime level and a strong student population, which can drive footfall but also creates seasonal and demographic trading patterns. There are no flood risks recorded; mobile and broadband connectivity are strong.
This property suits a purchaser seeking secure rental income from a national bank with potential long-term active value through location-led demand or future reconfiguration, but it is not a hands-off rural or low-risk suburban asset given local social and crime statistics.
