Churcher Estates are delighted to offer for auction this exciting mixed-use investment opportunity in the popular market town of Ormskirk, comprising a substantially extended two-bedroom detached bungalow together with a substantial adjoining commercial unit. Offered with vacant possession and no onward chain, the property provides investors with a rare opportunity to acquire both residential and commercial accommodation within a single purchase.

The combination of a well-presented residential dwelling and versatile commercial premises creates a number of potential options for an incoming purchaser. Subject to the necessary permissions and consents, the property could appeal to investors looking to generate income across both elements, business owners seeking premises alongside residential accommodation, or purchasers exploring longer-term redevelopment or alternative-use potential.

The residential accommodation is immaculately presented throughout and offers spacious, modern single-storey living. A welcoming entrance hall leads through to a generous rear lounge, featuring a large bay window, timber-panelled feature wall and recessed television area.

The modern kitchen/diner is fitted with a range of high-gloss wall and base units, contrasting worktops and integrated cooking appliances, with ample space for dining and direct access to the enclosed rear garden.

There are two generously proportioned double bedrooms positioned to the front of the property, alongside a contemporary bathroom fitted with a modern white suite. A pull-down ladder also provides access to a substantial loft room, offering valuable additional space and further potential, subject to any necessary consents.

Externally, the residential element benefits from an enclosed rear garden with lawn and patio areas, newly installed timber fencing and a paved seating area. Generous off-road parking is also available to the front, providing practical parking for multiple vehicles.

A major attraction from an investment perspective is the adjoining commercial unit, which occupies a prominent roadside position and provides substantial, flexible business accommodation. The unit comprises two large interconnected workshop areas with roller shutter access, a separate pedestrian entrance and WC facilities.

Internally, the commercial space benefits from an adaptable open-plan configuration together with suspended ceilings, fluorescent lighting, electric wall heaters, multiple power points and concrete flooring. Its size, accessibility and prominent position could make it suitable for a variety of commercial, workshop, storage or business uses, subject to the appropriate permissions.

Situated within easy reach of Ormskirk town centre, local amenities and established transport connections, this is a particularly interesting proposition for investors seeking an asset with both residential and commercial elements under one ownership.

With vacant possession providing flexibility from completion, the property offers considerable scope for an investor to establish their preferred letting or occupational strategy from the outset.

A rare mixed-use auction opportunity combining residential accommodation, substantial commercial space, generous parking and future investment potential in a sought-after Ormskirk location

Early viewing is highly recommended.
