A Great Investment Property
Torquay, Devon
A great investment property offering a stable return all year round. Comprising a ground floor retail unit, which has been occupied for many years by its current tenant, and a first-floor, two-bedroom self-contained apartment, which has just been upgraded. This is available for owner occupation or to be rented, depending on the purchaser’s requirements. The location is desirable for both trade and living and is only a short walk to the city centre, harbour, and beach. This vibrant commercial/residential area of Torquay, Devon, is always in demand, and early viewings are highly recommended.
The premises are situated on Walnut Road, Torquay, which is a densely populated, desirable residential area. This road is occupied by a couple of dozen retail units, together with a supermarket. All units are let, with short-term free hours parking available outside all shops. The area is nearly level and is within short walking distance to the city centre, sea front, and train and bus stations.
