Floats Mill, Trawden, Colne

Set within a quiet pocket of the ever-popular village of Trawden, this first floor apartment presents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a project, offering well-proportioned accommodation with clear potential for repair and refurbishment throughout. The property enjoys a pleasant position with allocated parking and communal access, and with the right vision, could be transformed into a superb home or investment.

We will be conducting an Open House event at the property on Thursday 21st May between 10:00am and 11:30am. This will provide prospective purchasers with the opportunity to view the property at their convenience within the allocated time slot, whilst also allowing our team to answer any questions regarding the accommodation, setting and potential on offer. Due to the anticipated level of interest, we would strongly advise registering your attendance with our office in advance.

The property is to be sold via Modern Method of Auction with all bids to be submitted to by Friday 5th June 2026 at 12:00 noon. For further information, please contact our Whalley office.

A buyer’s protection fee of 3% including VAT of the purchase price (subject to a minimum of £4,000 including VAT) is payable on offer acceptance, with 56 a day completion deadline to exclusively reserve the property. This fee is in addition to the purchase price.

Accessed via a communal entrance with staircase rising to the upper levels, the apartment itself opens into a central hallway with useful built-in storage and loft access. The heart of the home is an open plan living and kitchen space, a generous room with dual aspect windows allowing for plenty of natural light and ample scope to reconfigure and modernise to suit individual tastes. The kitchen area is fitted with a range of units and integrated appliances, though now ready for updating.

There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, the principal benefitting from an en-suite shower room, while a separate bathroom serves the second bedroom. Both bath and shower facilities are in place, however the apartment would now benefit from a programme of improvement to fully realise its potential.

Externally, the property benefits from allocated parking within a communal car park. The apartment is leasehold and falls within Council Tax Band B, with a service charge of approximately £110 per month.
