Description
The sale is of the freehold interest in the entire building, comprising the ground floor commercial premises and the residential flat above. The freehold is being sold subject to and with the benefit of a short-term tenancy of the commercial unit and a long residential lease of the upper floors. The buyer will therefore become the freeholder for the residential flat as well as landlord for the commercial premises.
The ground floor unit is currently let to long-standing tenant Village Sports, which has traded from this address for over 25 years and has expressed a clear desire to remain in occupation. While the current lease term has expired, negotiations for renewal are ongoing.
The residential flat above is owned separately on a long leasehold title and is not included in the sale. The buyer will acquire the freehold reversion to this flat and will therefore become the freeholder for it. We understand the lease has approximately 62 years unexpired and a current ground rent of £400 per annum, but these details must be verified independently.
We are advised that the commercial unit currently produces £41,500 per annum in rental income. Buyers are encouraged to review the legal pack and rely on their own legal enquiries to confirm income, tenancy status, and lease terms.
Raynes Park is a thriving commuter hub with fast and frequent trains to London Waterloo, and strong local footfall from a mix of residents, office workers, and passing trade. The high street offers a range of independent shops, national retailers, cafés, and restaurants, while nearby Wimbledon adds further footfall and connectivity.
This property presents an excellent opportunity for investors seeking a secure and established income in a prime South West London location, with long-term value and future asset management potential.
