A well-positioned mixed-use property in the heart of Ellacombe, Torquay, comprising a substantial vacant commercial premises, three self-contained flats, workshop/storage accommodation, a large three-door garage, gardens and extensive private parking. The existing property provides three residential units alongside significant vacant commercial space, offering scope to create a larger residential scheme.
Potential redevelopment, subject to planning and all necessary consents, includes:
Retention of the existing 3 self-contained flats
Conversion of the vacant commercial premises and storage/workshop accommodation to provide up to 4 additional residential units
Potential end scheme of 7 flats/apartments
Existing private parking, gardens
Prominent road frontage and an established residential setting
The property offers flexibility for a developer or investor to pursue a conversion-led residential scheme, subject to planning, or retain and improve the existing accommodation as a multi-unit investment. The combination of existing residential income-producing accommodation, substantial vacant space and private parking provides a clear opportunity to increase the residential accommodation and potentially enhance both rental income and capital value.
