Repurposing Potential
Although Superdrug have an overriding lease on the ground and first floor, they do not fully utilise the first floor which totals in excess of 4,300 sq ft. We believe there is an opportunity to take back a large section of this accommodation in the future and seek change of use to residential, subject to obtaining the necessary consents and agreeing a surrender of this space with the tenant.
VAT
The property has been registered for VAT. It is anticipated that the sale will be treated as a Transfer of a Going Concern (TOGC) subject to compliance with the provisions in the sale contract.
Proposal
We are instructed to seek offers in excess of £825,000, (Eight Hundred and Twenty Five Thousand Pounds) subject to contract, reflecting a net initial yield of 8.5% assuming purchaser’s costs of 5.53%.
