FREEHOLD INVESTMENT-MIXED RETAIL SHOPS AND RESIDENTIAL GROUND RENT INVESTMENTS

This impressive and substantial period property is located in a prime trading position in Southside Street, in the very heart of Plymouth's historic harbourside Barbican area. The Barbican is the city's most popular tourist area, famous for its narrow cobbled streets and history, tourist style shops, art galleries, restaurants, public houses, clubs, wine bars etc. The harbourside itself has a large number of boat moorings and marinas, and the city's famous Plymouth Hoe and main sea-front area are all within easy walking distance.

Plymouth, with a population of over 250,000 is the largest city in the West Country.  Largely rebuilt since World War II it is now a thriving industrial and commercial centre and is still one of the Royal Navy's principal base and warship repair dockyards.  The city has excellent educational, recreational and entertainment facilities and access to the rest of the country is gained by road via the A38/M5 motorway and by rail.  Europe is also accessible by the car/passenger ferry which is operated from its terminal at Millbay Docks.

The premises are terraced, with the original part of the property at least 150 years old and of traditional style construction with rendered elevations extending over three floors to the front, together with a large two storey property to the rear. 

In brief, it comprises 3 self-contained shop units at ground floor level fronting on to Southside Street, together with 8 self-contained flat units located to the upper floors and rear, all of which have been sold off on long leasehold interests and generate a ground rent.
