An interesting freehold investment opportunity in an area of town which is currently undergoing some redevelopment and regeneration, positioned between the ring road (from which there is direct access to the property) and the Staffs-Worcs Canal which separates Park Lane from the smart Weavers Wharf retail park, riverside cafe bars & restaurants, college, bus station and other town centre amenities.

This Grade II listed property - essentially comprising three adjoining and interconnected three storey buildings - includes five flats arranged over three floors (two flats are duplex units) plus two ground floor commercial units, with a total of 9 marked parking spaces to the forecourt. All flats/ units feature wooden framed double glazing and gas-fired central heating with own boilers.

Four of the five flats are currently let to long term tenants and one flat has recently become vacant, with the property expected to provide a potential fully let rental income of circa £40,000 - £45,000pa (approx 8-9% illustrative yield).

One of the two currently vacant ground floor commercial premises was successfully operated for over 30 years as a launderette business until moving to bigger premises. Demand exists locally to restart a launderette business here, whilst the other premises were operated as a dry cleaners business in recent years and previously a hairdressing salon.

The former salon is in well presented order, while the former launderette would need refitting to suit requirements.

The Forest Complex site is offered for sale as a single lot, however the seller would also consider splitting the site and is prepared to consider offers for the launderette premises + Flat 5 alone (these two units comprising the right hand building).
