Mixed Use Commercial/Residential Development Opportunity

New to auction is this exciting mixed use/residential development opportunity enjoying a prime location in central Galashiels. Extending to an overall floor area of approximately 924 sq. Metres (9,945 sq. Feet) over two levels, the property comprises a tenanted/trading retail unit on the ground floor, with planning permission approved for the first and roof levels to be developed into six residential units. The ground floor is currently occupied by the national chain, Savers, on a rolling annual lease (the tenant has occupied since August 2011) producing a current annual rental in the amount of £16,535pa. We understand the tenant is keen to continue their tenancy, and would be open to discussions regarding a new longer term lease agreement. The first floor and roof section of the property have had planning permission approved under Borders Council Ref. 22/00896/ful to create 6 residential units, comprising 1 x three bed, 4 x two bed and 1 x one bed apartments. No access to the upper floor is currently available, with the trading unit available for viewing during normal trading hours. The benefit of ongoing rental income from day one, along with the added value potential of completing the residential development element, is sure to attract strong levels of demand from investors/developers. Early expression of interest is essential.
