Investment property for sale in Hertford

Sidney Phillips has brought to market an exciting opportunity to purchase a sizeable investment property with residential units above.

The Old Cross Tavern is a prominent and eye catching three-storey property commanding a central position along St Andrew Street in the heart of Hertford. Hertford is the county town of Hertfordshire and houses a large population in the region of 27,000 residents. Being only 20 miles north of central London, and connected to it by two railway lines, Hertford continues to grow as one of the region’s most desirable commuter hotspots and employment hubs. The town, fortified after the Norman conquest, still boasts a medieval layout with many character buildings, particularly along St Andrew Street on which the Old Cross Tavern sits. The town retains an affluent country-town feel yet houses a diverse range of national and local businesses.

The property includes a ground floor and basement public house, which is let to a third-party and generating a rental income of £20,000 per annum. The upper floors house two residential units presented to shell condition, with Listed Building Consent for refurbishment and refitting.

The Old Cross Tavern is a great opportunity for a developer or passive investor to acquire a sizeable property in a prime area of the Home Counties.

The freehold interest is available off an asking price of £650,000.
