The Accommodation
Currently arranged as a commercial premises, the accommodation extends to a series of well-proportioned office spaces, with four rooms at ground floor level alongside a kitchen and ancillary facilities, and two further generous rooms above. The layout, together with the building’s inherent character and proportions, lends itself exceptionally well to conversion into an elegant private residence, subject to the necessary consents.
Planning has been submitted to facilitate a full change of use to residential, together with the addition of a detached garage (Ref: UTT/24/3029/FUL), unlocking the potential to create a thoughtfully designed home combining modern living with a central yet peaceful setting. The position offers an appealing balance of privacy and accessibility, with the town centre, The Common, well-regarded schools and everyday amenities all within a short walk.
From an investment perspective, the property is currently let on a lease expiring in April 2029, producing an income of £22,000 per annum, with a tenant break option in 2027. This provides both immediate income and a clear pathway for future development or owner occupation.
