North Street, Havant PO9 1PT

TO BE SOLD PRIOR TO AUCTION (date to be confirmed).
GUIDE PRICE:  £180,000-£200,000.
Of interest to investors and end-users in particular: we invite IMMEDIATE CASH OFFERS (on strict Auction terms) for these speculative VACANT FREEHOLD OFFICE PREMISES, now requiring general refurbishment and holding considerable potential. Within Havant Town Centre's St Faith's Conservation Area, North Street is convenient to a wide range of public amenities, with No. 42 positioned on the east side close to the junction with Prince George Street and just a few yards from Havant Station. Part of a short terrace, this Victorian character property has brick elevations under a modern tiled roof, its facade incorporating double splay bay window. To the rear is a generous garden with return frontage to a public car park. PLANNING: Built originally as a domestic dwelling, the property was granted Change of Use to offices in 1987. A recent planning application (April 2022, reference APP/22/00337) for conversion to two flats was REFUSED, this decision being upheld on a subsequent Appeal, the principal objection being the unacceptable loss of a town centre business use. Quoted at the time, the local ward councillor stated "I have no objection to a flat on the first floor". It is felt, therefore, that scope exists now for mixed commercial/residential use of the building. However, it is now offered "as is", with interested parties required to satisfy themselves as to their own intentions. Full particulars are given as follows:
