INCREASE RENTS

There is scope to increase the rental income in a variety of ways

1 BED FLAT = 2 BED

If the rear elevated section of the shop were partitioned off and incorporated within the rear flat this would create a 2nd large en suite bedroom.
Likewise the current bedroom could be Incorporated into the rear office to create a large en suite bedroom.
Finally the 3 separate small courtyards could now be combined into a single generous rear garden for use of the flat.
This would result in a self contained flat with two large en suite bedrooms, living space and garden.

NB - Whilst this will reduce the rental income of the retail unit the uplift in rental income from the above scheme will mitigate this. There is also scope to create the ancillary / bathroom space required for the shop under the stairs.
