No 5 Leigh Road is a two-storey building of brick and slate construction with a flat roof rear extension and a recently resurfaced rear car park with space for 4 vehicles. It is currently let to Univilla Ltd trading as Consol Tanning Studio (with over 40 branches in the UK) who are holding over on a lease of 5 years from 17/10/2015. They have indicated they wish to stay and may surrender the first floor if the new owner wished to redevelop this as residential, thereby giving considerable scope for an increase in income. The current rent for the whole is £18000 pa ex rates.
No 7 is immediately next door and is also for sale so a disposal of the two properties as a package will be considered. If sold separately, part of the first floor of No 5 extends over land held by No 7 and will be treated as a flying freehold.
