Description

Freehold Investment Opportunity | Central Wollaston. An exceptional opportunity to acquire the freehold of a characterful Victorian building in the heart of central Wollaston, comprising two well-presented flats. Being sold via the Modern Method of Auction, this investment currently generates an immediate rental income of £1,100 PCM (£13,200 PA) with tenants already in situ. The property offers a diverse portfolio profile with a strong, demonstrable history of appeal to the local lettings market.

Flat A is a one-bedroom ground floor flat (in need of improvement) held on a Rent Act tenancy, while Flat B is an impressive two-bedroom first-floor flat that was thoughtfully refurbished in 2024 to provide contemporary styled living.

With Flat B currently held on an Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST), there is clear scope for a savvy investor to increase the rental yield further to meet current market levels. Located just moments from the popular village amenities of Wollaston, this freehold sale represents a rare chance to secure a high-yielding asset with both immediate returns and significant long-term growth potential in a highly sought-after residential area.
