Mixed-Use Freehold in Popular St Marychurch Precinct. Comprises Retail Unit & a Two Bedroom Maisonette.
Situated in the heart of St Marychurch’s shopping precinct, a thriving area of Torquay. 56 Fore Street benefits from a prominent position within an independent and well-supported retail parade. The location enjoys strong year-round footfall and is surrounded by independent occupiers, including shops, cafés, and services, appealing to a strong local customer base. St Marychurch is also a sought-after residential area with excellent transport links, making this property ideal for those seeking a home and income, an investment opportunity, or a small business base with living accommodation above.
56 Fore Street is a mid-terraced mixed-use property comprising a ground floor retail unit and a self-contained two-bedroom maisonette above. The retail unit is currently occupied by a homewares business and provides approximately 32m² (344 sq ft) of trading space. It is let on a 3-year lease expiring in September 2026 at £550 per calendar month.
The residential accommodation, accessed via a separate entrance, is currently vacant. It comprises two bedrooms, separate living room and kitchen and benefits from a private, lawned rear garden bordered by mature trees and stone walls. While the flat is in a tidy condition, it offers scope for refurbishment to create a high-quality residential unit.
This property presents a rare opportunity for investors, owner occupiers, or those seeking a live-work arrangement in a desirable part of Torquay.
