Description

This detached two-storey commercial building in central Lydney was previously used as a beauty and nail salon and is offered with vacant possession. The accommodation is arranged around several ground-floor salon or reception rooms, staff facilities, two separate WCs and a first floor with seven treatment or office rooms and storage. Two allocated parking spaces are included. The property requires comprehensive modernisation and renovation. A replacement roof is stated to have been installed, providing a starting point for further work. The existing layout reflects its former commercial use and could be adapted to suit a new business or other proposal, subject to the necessary planning permissions and building regulations. Residential conversion or mixed-use redevelopment has been considered by the current owners, but no consent is stated. The town-centre position provides access to local shops and services, with rail and road connections described by the agent.

40out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This detached, stone-fronted building has a prominent town-centre position in Lydney, two allocated parking spaces and a replacement roof, giving a substantial project a useful starting point. The former salon layout spans two floors and could be reworked for a new commercial use or, subject to the necessary consents, a residential or mixed-use scheme. Visible damage, staining, open ceilings and debris across several areas make this a heavy, full-interior programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; the upper-floor damage warrants investigation. At £150,000, the missing floor area means value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the former salon’s two-floor layout to suit a new commercial operation or, subject to consents, a residential or mixed-use scheme.
  • Make use of the prominent stone frontage, town-centre position and two allocated parking spaces.
  • The stated replacement roof provides a useful starting point for a substantial interior transformation.

Key risks

  • Stripped and damaged interiors, open ceiling sections and debris across several areas mean a full interior rebuild programme; allow for substantial time and coordination rather than a cosmetic refresh.
  • Visible upper-floor staining and damage around the exposed roof structure require investigation, despite the listing stating that a replacement roof has been installed.
  • The exposed electrical distribution area and visible wiring need assessment.
