An exciting opportunity to acquire the freehold of a prominent mixed-use property situated in the heart of the popular village of Exminster, on the outskirts of Exeter. Occupying an enviable position amongst the village's established amenities and local businesses, the property provides a particularly attractive combination of commercial and residential income, offering investors diversification from three separate rental streams.

The ground floor comprises two commercial units, currently occupied as offices by professional businesses and let on long leases with 10-year rights to renew on a Full Repairing basis.

Above the commercial accommodation is a well-presented three-bedroom apartment, providing generous and versatile living accommodation throughout together with the highly desirable addition of a private roof terrace garden. The apartment also has its own separate entrance on Deepway Lane.

The apartment is currently let, providing a further established income stream.

The property therefore offers an appealing combination of secure existing income, a diverse tenant profile and freehold ownership, making it an attractive proposition for private investors, property companies, pension investors and owner-occupiers seeking an investment with residential and commercial components. The building comprises three separately income-producing elements:

Tenancies

Unit 1 - Commercial. A ground floor commercial office unit currently occupied by a professional business.

Unit 2 - Commercial. A further ground floor commercial office unit, also occupied by a professional business.

First Floor - Three-Bedroom Apartment. A spacious and beautifully presented three-bedroom residential apartment occupying the upper floor. The apartment is in excellent condition and offers well-proportioned accommodation throughout, providing a comfortable and desirable residential environment. A particular feature is the private roof terrace garden; an unusual and highly attractive outdoor space which adds significant appeal to the accommodation. The apartment is currently let.

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.
