Lot 11 Freehold InvestmentAuction Date:
7th May 2026
5 North Street, Wareham, Dorset, BH20 4AB
Located in the heart of the attractive town centre of Wareham, a popular Dorset market town, this three storey property is currently let under the terms of a commercial lease and producing a healthy income. The existing lease runs until December 2028 at which point any new owner may wish to consider negotiations with Age UK to perhaps gain control of the upper parts, whilst continuing to let the ground floor to them under fresh commercial terms, or perhaps using the ground floor for their own use. This would open up the possibility of development of the upper two floors, subject to all necessary consents being obtainable. The property benefits from rear access from Mill Lane, which will be particularly useful when considering options to develop the upper parts or perhaps the land to the rear of the property.
