Description

A UNIQUE RESIDENTIAL & COMMERCIAL OPPORTUNITY WITH POTENTIAL. This unusual and highly versatile property offers a rare combination of residential accommodation, substantial commercial/workshop space and potential for future redevelopment, subject to the necessary planning consents. Originally arranged as a three-bedroom residential house, the property has in recent years been utilised by a business and now presents an excellent opportunity for a purchaser looking to restore the residential element, continue a commercial use, or explore alternative uses and redevelopment potential. To the rear is a particularly substantial workshop, which has historically been operated as a car repair business. The size and nature of this space provide considerable flexibility and could appeal to a variety of commercial users, subject to any necessary consents. The property also benefits from a large rear yard, currently providing useful external space but offering the potential to be transformed into an attractive private garden or landscaped amenity area. The combination of the existing building, substantial rear workshop and generous outside space makes this a property with considerable scope for improvement and reconfiguration. This is an opportunity likely to appeal to developers, investors, owner-occupiers and commercial operators seeking a property with genuine scope to add value and create something tailored to their individual requirements.
