This freehold mixed-use property on Amersham High Street combines period character with clear commercial potential. The ground-floor shop has a glazed frontage, high ceilings and rear storage with a customer bathroom — ideal for a small café, retail unit or conversion (subject to council approval). Old Amersham’s steady visitor stream supports independent businesses and provides good footfall for commercial tenants or owner-occupier ventures.
The first- and second-floor flat is bright and spacious with high ceilings, sash windows and exposed beams across three bedrooms and principal reception rooms. The accommodation feels characterful and generous across approximately 1,195 sq ft, making it attractive to families, sharers or rental portfolios seeking a town-centre asset.
Practical considerations are straightforward but material. The building is solid-brick and likely lacks cavity insulation; upgrading thermal performance may be required. The property has one residential bathroom only, council tax band E is above average, and business rates are stated at £18,000 pa. Any ground-floor conversion to additional living space requires planning permission.
For buyers seeking an income-producing or hybrid live/work opportunity in a very affluent town, this property offers scope and location. Budget for refurbishment and statutory applications to unlock conversion potential and energy-efficiency improvements.
