Land for sale in Wiltshire
This is a rare opportunity for a town centre development with planning permission for 10 new apartments as well as 2 existing commercial units on the ground floor, currently providing over £30,000 of annual income. The property offers a wonderful chance for a superb rental return or for selling individually once developed.
Arranged over three floors, the ground floor is set out as two commercial units. One offers an impressive high street frontage onto Fore Street whilst the second is accessed via Narrow Wine Street. Unit one is currently let on a "tenancy at will" basis with three month’s notice either way, providing £1,700 per month including insurance contributions. Unit 2 is on a 5 year internal repairing and insuring lease, generating £1050 per month including insurance contributions. Combined, the commercial units are currently generating a net income of £33,000.
The vast upper floors are ripe for conversion with the planning permission including extending the top floor rearward. A separate entrance via Narrow Wine Street would provide access to the apartments which would include impressive roof top views of the town centre. The new apartments would range in size from a studio at 37.5sqm to 97sqm for a two bedroom duplex. As part of the plans, many of the properties would have their own terrace space whilst the remaining ones would have access to a shared terrace.
The property is within the Trowbridge conservation area, set amongst the hustle and bustle of the town centre, ideally situated from both the perspective of retail and residential conversion. Planning permission was granted in 2021 and since then, a good amount of work has been done. This includes but is not limited to dividing the two commercial units, removal of asbestos, electrical and water connections, entrance and stairwell for the apartments. Planning documents are available via the Wiltshire Planning Portal with the reference: 20/11327/FUL.
