Description

This striking and extensive period residence occupies a prominent corner position overlooking the picturesque People’s Park, offering an impressive and highly versatile opportunity for a range of future uses. Formerly operated as a children’s care facility, the property still retains a wealth of charming original features including sash windows, fireplaces, decorative woodwork and generous bay frontages. Its scale, layout and character all lend themselves perfectly to sympathetic conversion.

Internally, the accommodation is arranged over several floors and provides a substantial footprint throughout. The ground floor offers multiple well-proportioned reception rooms, several bedrooms, wash rooms, WC facilities, access to the lift, and a kitchen. The first floor continues with an extensive range of bedrooms, ensuite bath and shower rooms, additional living spaces and storage areas, providing excellent flexibility for alternative layouts. The second floor provides further generous bedroom accommodation together with a communal bathroom and an additional self-contained kitchen, making the upper level suitable for a variety of residential or supported-living uses.

Externally, the building benefits from side access via Abbey Park Road, off-street parking, and a block-paved patio that wraps around to a lawned front garden with mature shrubbery. Its setting directly opposite People’s Park provides an attractive outlook and positions the property within a desirable and established residential environment.

Given its size, elegance and commanding position, the property is ripe for conversion back into a substantial family home, or alternatively into self-contained flats, an HMO, or continued commercial use (subject to the necessary planning consents). Few properties of this scale and character come to the market, and this represents a rare opportunity for developers, investors or owner-occupiers to shape this striking building to their own requirements.
