A Once-in-a-Generation Cowes Main Street Opportunity! | TWO LEASED SHOPS + FLEXIBLE UPPER-LEVEL SPACE

Combining two established businesses, immediate rental income and a versatile upper level with water views, this property offers an outstanding opportunity for investors and owner-occupiers alike.
The ground floor comprises two established tenancies, currently occupied by Sunni Rae and Anerie, providing diversified rental income from two well-established local businesses. Anerie, a popular French bistro, benefits from its prominent Thompson Avenue position and the newly upgraded streetscape, which provides a fantastic outdoor setting with stunning views. Provision has been made for outdoor dining extending from the tenancy into this area. Sunni Rae, an established fashion and homewares retailer, further complements the tenancy mix.
The upper level is currently vacant and offers exceptional flexibility. Subject to the relevant approvals, the substantial three-bedroom space could be utilised as a commercial office, permanent residential rental, holiday accommodation or retained for private use.
Featuring a generous open-plan kitchen and living area, views towards Western Port Bay, a private balcony and a rare grassed rear yard, the upper level provides scope to add further income or value while offering flexibility for the new owner.
With established income from two quality tenants and a flexible upper level offering significant future potential, this is a rare opportunity to secure a substantial freehold asset in the heart of Cowes.
Positioned within easy walking distance of Cowes Beach, cafés, restaurants, retail and the ferry terminal, the property combines a highly sought-after location with immediate income and multiple future options.
A rare combination of established income, flexibility and future upside in the heart of Cowes.
All proposed uses are subject to planning, building, licensing and other relevant approvals.
