Buy To Let Is Dead! It really isn’t…but it isn’t getting any easier. That’s why savvy investors are buying mixed use properties like this. An immaculate retail unit with a superb, spacious tenanted flat above, just round the corner from Washington Square.
When it comes to mixed use investments, location is key - and this tidy two-for-one sits in one of Workington’s most characterful spots - where the cobbled streets meet the buzz of the town centre.
It’s a smart investment that gives you flexibility, an instant rental income and proper profit potential.
Downstairs, the retail space is ready to go. A big street-facing window offers the perfect canvas for display, while the interior layout suits everything from shops to studios.
There’s a small utility and W/C out the back - plus no business rates to pay thanks to its compact size.
Upstairs, you’ve got a superb, spacious one-bed flat that can be sold tenanted if you’d prefer (and unless you were going to move in yourself, why wouldn’t you?).
The first floor has a bright lounge and a stylish fitted kitchen / diner, while the top floor has a large double bedroom with eaves storage and a roomy four-piece bathroom to match.
There’s even a private rear yard giving your tenants a breath of fresh air and extra flexibility.
The flat’s in great condition and being already tenanted means your investment can be cashflowing from day one. But if you’re looking to live above the shop (or keep your options open), that works too.
Best of all, you’re just around the corner from Washington Square - so the location keeps both lifestyle and lettings appeal high.
Mixed use might just be the smarter future of buy to let - and this affordable 2for1 deal could be the perfect way to get in
