The scheme also benefits from 24 car parking spaces and a low service charge at £1.76 per sq. ft. It generates gross income of £647,000 annually, with a net operating income of £519,731 per annum. The scheme has a WAULT of 3.05 years to lease expiry and 1.64 years to break option.
BidX1 has listed the Princess of Wales with a guide price of £3,750,000, equating to a gross initial yield of 13.85% and a capital value of £45 per sq. ft.
Bidding is due to open at 10am on 30 June, unless the property is sold prior to the auction date.
John Connolly, the BidX1 agent handling the sale, said: “A strong mix of national covenants and local retailers – along with the potential for further asset management – makes this an exciting opportunity to acquire a vibrant community scheme in a thriving market town.”
