Investment analysis


At the asking price of £380,000 and the current combined rental income of £28,800 per annum, the property provides an attractive gross initial yield of approximately 7.58%. This equates to an annual rental return of approximately £28,800 before property ownership costs, representing a diversified income stream from two commercial occupiers and one residential tenant. The mixed-use nature of the investment provides an additional element of diversification, with income derived from both the commercial and residential sectors rather than relying upon a single tenant or property use.

The commercial units are currently occupied by professional businesses on long leases with 10-year rights to renew, whilst the residential apartment is also producing an established rental income. For an investor looking for an income-producing freehold asset in a prominent village location, the combination of three rental streams, mixed-use accommodation and an attractive headline yield makes this a compelling opportunity.

The quoted yield is calculated before acquisition costs, financing costs, management expenses, repairs, insurance, taxation, voids and other property-related expenditure. Purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the applicable costs and underlying tenancy arrangements.

Tenany and income The property is offered subject to the existing occupational arrangements.
Further details of the individual leases, tenancy agreements, expiry dates, renewal provisions, rent review arrangements and tenant covenants are available from the selling agent upon request.
This is an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a freehold mixed-use investment in a prominent village-centre position, combining established commercial occupation with a desirable three-bedroom residential apartment.

Early inspection is strongly recommended.

All figures are believed to be correct at the time of preparation but should be verified by prospective purchasers and their professional advisers. The property is offered subject to contract and availability.

Location The property occupies a prominent position within Exminster village centre, surrounded by an established mix of local shops, services and businesses. The village provides a convenient range of day-to-day amenities, including a local Tesco, cafés, hair and beauty services and other independent businesses. The central retail area is an established focal point for the local community.

Exminster benefits from its proximity to Exeter, whilst retaining the character and convenience of a well-established village community. The village's central facilities and walkable retail offering provide an excellent setting for both the commercial occupiers and the residential apartment.
