This freehold mixed-use building on Stanley High Street offers a clear investor opportunity: a ground-floor former café plus two sizeable flats above, sold as one title. The property includes an integral single garage, enclosed rear yard, cellar storage and separate entrances for the flats, creating multiple income streams and straightforward tenancy layout.
The flats and retail unit are currently vacant and will require refurbishment; EPCs range from E (39) to D (87). The retail unit and Flat A share an electricity supply and Flat A and the retail space lack gas heating — Flat B has gas central heating. Estimated potential income is reported between £20,400 and £24,000 per year once let.
Key benefits are the prominent high-street frontage, rear delivery access via yard, useful cellar storage and a single-car garage. Known drawbacks include the need for refurbishment, shared electrical supply for two units, mixed EPC ratings, and the property’s location in a high crime and deprived area, which may affect tenant demand and rents.
This is best suited to a hands-on investor or landlord prepared to carry out works and actively manage lettings. With renovation and proper separation of utilities, the building could deliver stable rental return and increase capital value within the local market.
