Description
We are appointed as sole agents to dispose of a mixed-use freehold investment in Alton, Hampshire. The building appears to be of original design and is of brick elevations under a pitched and tiled roof.
It comprises two ground floor retail units, both of which front Lenten Street and enjoy good visibility. One is occupied by the Alton Clock Shop who have been in occupation for many years, while the second unit will be occupied from 1st January 2026 by a retailer on an initial 12-month licence. Also owned within the freehold title are two apartments on the first floor of the main building (a 1-bed plus a 2-bed), along with the Old Forge to the rear, which is a detached 1-bed conversion property and currently on the market for rent.
We believe there may be scope to improve the rental income on the residential element in the future, based on the existing rent levels and strength of tenant demand.
