This vacant mid-terraced property has been used as ancillary offices for a large care home located on Sunny Bank. The sale now provides an opportunity to investors and renovators to convert the property back into a residential dwelling or apartments (subject to planning consent). Following a manageable renovation and conversion, the 1,724 sq ft (160 sq m) of nicely proportioned accommodation over two floors could provide two reception rooms, a dining kitchen, four bedrooms and a bathroom.

Planning
Planning permission was granted in July 2004 for a change of use from a single dwelling to a nursing home, together with a rear extension. Since that time the property has been used for ancillary office accommodation in connection with the adjoining care home. Interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries with the local planning authority regarding any proposals to revert the property to residential use.
VAT
The property is not registered for VAT.
Business Rates
