Summary - B4144 Villa Rd, near British Star, 66-68 Villa Rd B19 1BL
1 bed 1 bath Commercial Property
Spacious development opportunity near major roads and strong local footfall.
Freehold commercial retail premises, approximately 2,800 sqft
A substantial freehold retail building of approximately 2,800 sq ft on Villa Road, offered with vacant possession and broad scope for redevelopment. The ground floor is largely open-plan with ancillary WC and first-floor offices; a side/rear yard provides separate access from the road. The property currently holds A1 use class and could be split into smaller retail units or repurposed for alternative commercial uses, subject to obtaining necessary consents.
Good practical advantages include a main-arterial location close to Soho Road and quick access to the motorway network, strong local footfall in a busy neighbourhood, and services nearby. The site’s size and layout will appeal to investors or owner-occupiers seeking rental income, sub-division opportunities, or a conversion project (STP).
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the building requires modernization, has low ceiling heights across much of the space, and an EPC rating of F. There is no step-free access and heating is electric room heaters. The area is in a very deprived ward with very high recorded crime levels, which may affect tenant demand and insurance costs. Any conversion or change of use will need formal planning and building regulation approvals.
