This rare investment opportunity offers immense flexibility. The upper two floors of the main building are ideally suited for conversion into two generous two-bedroom apartments, while retaining the ground floor and basement for commercial/retail use.
Currently, a flat-roof extension expands the shop floor and connects through to the detached, two-storey Bothy. Removing this extension presents an exciting opportunity to create valuable off-street parking and/or private garden space to serve the proposed residential dwellings.
The Bothy would make an excellent detached two storey one bed house.

The Bothy would make an excellent detached two storey one bed house. The Bothy is currently attached to the shop with the flat roof extension, with the ground floor consisting of a washroom and two store rooms. Stairs lead up to a good size open plan space.

The main building is believed to date back to c18 and there is evidence that it was originally a house. The property is grade ll listed and any interested parties will require listed planning permission for any proposed redevelopment.

The tenant is currently on a rolling contract, paying £19,000 pa and is looking to continue the tenancy until any planning for redevelopment has been granted.
