Business Information

This highly attractive property offers an exceptional investment opportunity in the heart of Norwich. Recently converted and extended from a former public house in 2020, the property has been designed and fitted to a modern standard, providing 12 high-quality en-suite letting rooms. With strong existing income from professional tenants, and the potential for increased revenue through short-term letting opportunities, this is a versatile and well-positioned investment.

THE BUSINESS

The business currently generates an impressive gross yearly income of around £98,640, with each room let on a monthly basis to professional individuals. With 12 en-suite letting rooms, including 7 with kitchen facilities, this property offers the flexibility to cater to long-term tenants or adapt for short-term rentals such as B&B or Airbnb. The property is in excellent condition throughout, featuring modern fittings, multi-jet shower cubicles, and Wi-Fi coverage. The location, less than 15 minutes from Norwich Station, adds further appeal for both tenants and potential future guests.

The property also has potential for further growth, particularly for a buyer interested in maximizing occupancy through nightly or weekly rentals, boosting the already healthy gross yield of 10.0%.

PREMISES

The premises were thoughtfully converted from a former public house in 2020, offering contemporary and well-appointed accommodation throughout. All 12 rooms are ensuite, with 7 featuring kitchen facilities, and 5 equipped with sinks. One room has been specifically designed for disabled access, featuring a wet room. The property is gas centrally heated, with the benefit of a backup boiler, ensuring consistent comfort for tenants.

Communal areas include a kitchen and dining space, providing additional convenience for tenants. The premises are presented in excellent order, with modern fixtures, multi-jet shower cubicles, and stylish fittings throughout.
