Cranbrook Road, Ilford

A rare opportunity to acquire a freehold mixed-use investment comprising a ground floor commercial retail unit, two self-contained one-bedroom flats above, and a substantial rear section with ample parking and garage space, all located in a prominent and highly accessible Ilford position.

The commercial element occupies the ground floor and offers a sizeable retail trading area with kitchen / staff facilities to the rear, making it suitable for a range of occupiers or continued commercial use. Above, the property includes two one-bedroom flats, each offering practical residential layouts and separate living accommodation.

A major feature of the site is the significant rear area, which provides parking, garage space, and further development potential. Importantly, the property benefits from planning permission already granted for two additional two-bedroom flats to be built above the rear garage, together with approval to create an additional bedroom to turn 92A into a two-bedroom flat. Further information and plans can be made available upon request.

This makes the property particularly attractive to investors and developers seeking a ready-made asset with income potential, asset management scope, and future development upside.
