Property details

For Sale by Public Auction

An excellent opportunity to acquire a freehold commercial investment property. The property holds significant potential for future residential development, subject to planning permission.

The unit is currently let to the Works Stores Limited at a passing rent of £10,000 per annum, under a 3 year lease commencing on 1st April 2025. The lease includes mutual break options in April 2026 and April 2027, providing flexibility for both landlord and tenant. It is important to note that the lease has been granted outside the security of tenure provisions of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, meaning the tenant does not have an automatic right to renew the lease upon expiry.

The upper floor offers potential for residential accommodation (STP).

The property occupies a prominent High Street position in the centre of the vibrant market town of Evesham, which offers a wide range of amenities including shops, supermarkets, a cinema and excellent transport links.

The sale will take place on the stated auction date by way of a live, in-room auction and the property is being sold on an unconditional basis with a fixed fee. Some sellers may consider a pre-auction offer and the lot may be sold or withdrawn before the auction.
