This substantial period property, prominently located at a corner position with views of the scenic People’s Park, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and redevelopment. Previously functioning as a children's care facility, the residence boasts an array of original features such as sash windows, period fireplaces, and detailed woodwork. These characteristics provide an excellent foundation for any restoration project that aims to preserve its historical charm while modernizing its functionality.
Spanning several floors, the internal layout is extensive and adaptable. The ground floor comprises multiple spacious reception rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, and a kitchen; all areas that can be reimagined for residential or commercial use. The first floor continues this theme with additional bedrooms and living spaces that lend themselves to reconfiguration into self-contained units or communal living arrangements. On the second floor, further bedroom accommodation is available along with a communal bathroom and an extra kitchen—ideal for conversion into apartments or supported living environments.
Externally, the property benefits from side access via Abbey Park Road alongside off-street parking facilities. The block-paved patio and front lawn area are complemented by existing mature shrubbery, enhancing the overall appeal of the site. Its advantageous location opposite People’s Park enhances desirability in this well-established residential neighbourhood.
With its ample space and elegant character, this property is well-positioned for conversion back into a grand family home or for transformation into multiple flats or an HMO (subject to requisite planning approvals). This rare offering is an exceptional prospect for developers or investors looking to add significant value through thoughtful refurbishment.
