Excellent opportunity
Busy Southsea location
Attractive to investors and owner-occupiers
Rare opportunity to purchase a vacant freehold shop and first-floor 1-bedroom flat in a busy Southsea location - please phone us to arrange a viewing.
Description
The subject mixed-use property comprises a spacious ground floor retail unit with an independently-accessed first floor flat above. It is a two-storey period building of brick elevations beneath a pitched and tiled roof, set within a terraced parade of similar properties. The shop, currently a very well-presented hairdressing salon with high ceiling, spotlighting and wood effect flooring, consists of open-plan retail space leading into a lobby/hall space (stairs to first floor closed off), cloakroom with WC, kitchen and lean-to type store to the rear with a door to a small enclosed yard/garden. From the rear, steps lead up into the very well-apportioned first-floor apartment which comprises a living/dining area to the front, bedroom, shower room/WC and kitchen to rear. We feel the property could suit an owner-occupier looking to run a business or it will no doubt attract tenants and provide an attractive return/yield as a freehold investment asset.
Situation
The building is situated within a well-established mixed-use commercial and residential parade in the Central Southsea area of Portsmouth. Winter Road forms a recognised secondary retail pitch serving the densely populated Southsea catchment, linking residential neighbourhoods with the wider Albert Road and Milton commercial districts. The immediate locality is characterised by a strong independent retail and service-led occupier profile, including convenience retail, takeaway food operators, cafés, salons, local professional services and residential accommodation above ground-floor commercial units. The area benefits from consistent pedestrian activity generated by surrounding terraced housing, student accommodation and nearby university populations, supporting day-to-day local trade. Winter Road itself provides long-established retail frontage and relatively high occupancy levels. The property sits approximately 1.5 miles east of Portsmouth city centre and close to Albert Road, one of Southsea’s principal leisure and independent retail destinations. The surrounding demographic profile is relatively young, with a notably high proportion of single occupants and students compared with national averages, reflecting the influence of the nearby university and rental market.
Accommodation
A measured survey identified a ground floor of 696 sq ft and first floor of 580 sq ft, totalling an area of 1,276 sq ft / 118.5 sq m.
Tenure
We are instructed to market this freehold building at a guide price of £300,000 subject to contract and vacant possession. Existing fixtures and fittings in the salon may be available by separate negotiation.
Rateable value
From 1st April 2026 the rateable value of the shop is £5,400, suggesting that eligible occupiers will benefit from 100% small business rates relief. The flat is in Council Tax Band A.
Legal costs and VAT
Each party is expected to bear their own legal costs in any transaction. The property is not elected for VAT purposes.
EPC rating
We have identified current and valid assessments for the shop (D – 86) and flat (E – 50).
