Description A fantastic opportunity to acquire a well-presented semi-commercial property offering both a flexible retail space and a spacious residential element above - viewing is highly advised to take in the space and potential this property has to offer.

To the rear, a conservatory-style extension provides further working space, currently fitted with multiple stations and hair wash basins, enhancing the property’s commercial appeal.
The first floor comprises a self-contained flat with a generous bedroom, kitchen and shower room, offering comfortable living accommodation.
A further loft room provides additional usable space, ideal as a bedroom, office or storage depending on requirements.
Externally, the property benefits from a secure gated yard providing valuable off-street parking.
This is an ideal purchase for investors seeking dual-income potential or business owners looking for the convenience of living above their premises, with excellent scope to maximise rental yield.
