A mixed-use commercial property situated on Folly Lane in Petersfield, just off the High Street. The property comprises two ground floor commercial units with residential accommodation above. We understand, from historical documents, that this property was part of a network of stables and carriage repair yards serving the old London Road. Carriage wheel marks are still visible on the South West corner wall. The commercial element is fully let to two separate tenants: Cantina Rosita, in occupation since 2022, and Fire Hermit, in occupation since 2024. Both leases are held outside the security of tenure provisions of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 and one lease is secured by a personal guarantee. Cantina Rosita benefits from an outdoor dining area that seats around twenty-five people, enhancing its trading position. The café has had substantial expenditure on new fitted kitchen equipment and front of house fitted furniture. Deliveries for both units come via Bowen Lane. The upper parts comprise two self-contained residential flats, both of which have been sold off on long leaseholds. The leases have approximately 55 years and 145 years unexpired respectively. A zoned fire alarm with fire doors have been fitted.
