Property description

LOCATION
Situated in a prominent corner location with triple aspect windows, the shop faces the Western approach to Ilfracombe seafront, not far from the renowned Tunnels Beach. It is also close to Southern Slopes Pleasure Garden and Runnymede Gardens, within a level walking distance of Wildersmouth Beach, and approximately three-quarters of a mile from the harbour. This prime positioning ensures excellent visibility and passing trade.

Ilfracombe, often referred to as the "Jewel in the Crown" of this majestic coastline, boasts stunning clifftop walks and numerous beaches. The town has recently gained additional attention with the installation of the large Verity statue by the famous artist Damien Hirst on the Pier, which attracts many day visitors. With a population of around 11,000 residents, the town sees a significant increase in numbers during the holiday season. This property is in a conservation area.

THE PROPERTY
With separate access from the side to the upper floors the property provides a centrally heated 1 bedroom apartment on the first floor and a 2 bedroom apartment above. Fine views are enjoyed from the flats to the Torrs walk in the west and over the seafront pleasure gardens to the east. The ground floor shop offers about 764 sq ft of space and is now split into three therapy rooms and a reception area plus cloakroom and small store. The whole now operates as a Wellness Centre. Adjoining the shop the property has a valuable brick paved parking area for two cars back to back, with a fenced boundary.

TENURE
We are offering the building for sale as a freehold, with the ground floor lock-up currently set with a 5 year lease which commenced in 2025. At a monthly rent of £525 (£6,300 per annum).

AGENTS NOTE
The current owners will be offering the upper floors with vacant possession and may provide furnishing at an extra cost if required. The apartments are currently being used as self-contained holiday accommodation to guests visiting the area or attending nearby wedding venues. Alternatively, the apartments could be let on a residential shorthold tenancy agreement, subject to statutory obligations. This is a great investment opportunity with guaranteed rental income from the shop below and potential high earning rentals from the two apartments over.
