A rare mixed-use opportunity on Welwyn Village High Street, this Grade II listed freehold combines a street-facing retail unit (Use Class E) with a self-contained two-bedroom flat above. The building has strong village-centre visibility, three off-street parking spaces and vacant possession, making it suitable for an owner-operator or an investor seeking immediate flexibility. VAT is not payable.
The ground-floor retail area offers an open plan layout, full-width glazed frontage and period character (sash window, wood flooring) ideal for boutique retail or alternative Class E uses, subject to planning. The first-floor domestic accommodation is presented in good order and ready for occupation, supporting on-site living or independent rental income.
Buyers should note the property’s Grade II listing: any external or internal alterations will require listed-building consents and may limit development potential. External amenity is limited to a small private garden/landscaped frontage and the overall plot is compact, typical of a high-street corner unit. Broadband speeds are average and the building sits in a very affluent, low-crime area with excellent mobile signal.
Overall this is a prominent, characterful high-street investment with clear income or owner-occupier appeal, but with listed-status constraints and modest external space that will influence refurbishment or expansion plans.
