Description
Connells Wolverhampton is marketing this chain-free detached former public house in Willenhall, close to local shopping facilities and with road links to the Black Country Route and M6. The two-storey building is offered with planning permission, as described by the seller, for conversion into two HMO units with six bedrooms in each, shared facilities and parking to the rear. Buyers should verify the permission and its conditions directly with Walsall Council and take independent legal, surveying and planning advice before proceeding.
The property requires viewing to assess its layout and scope. The agent states that there is no lighting and warns that access is at viewers' own risk because of hazards. Nearby amenities mentioned include shops, schools, healthcare services, eateries, Wednesfield shopping centre, Bentley Bridge retail park and New Cross Hospital. The sale is chain free.

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
40out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This substantial former pub offers a clear conversion project: the listing says permission was granted for two six-bedroom HMO units, with gated parking to the rear. The brick exterior and pitched tiled roof provide a starting point, while the large stripped commercial spaces leave scope to shape the interiors around the proposed layout. The permission, conditions and approved drawings should be checked before relying on them.
At 40/100, this is a low-opportunity result overall: the fundamentals and location score well, but the visible condition is severe and the available information is not enough to assess the economics. Floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged; no renovation range is available to size the works. The interiors show extensive damage, debris and dark staining in several areas, and the listing warns that there is no lighting and hazards are present.
Key opportunities
- The large former commercial rooms give scope to rework the interior around the stated two-unit, 12-bedroom HMO proposal, subject to verifying the permission and approved plans.
- The substantial two-storey brick building and pitched tiled roof offer a solid-looking exterior framework for a full conversion.
- Rear hardstanding and a covered parking structure provide a base for improving the parking and clearing and tidying the outdoor area.
Key risks
- Stripped interiors, exposed ceiling structure, damaged surfaces, debris and staining across several areas make this a full conversion programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; the works budget and timescale need careful assessment.
- The building is secured and unused, with several external openings boarded; inspect the property and check its condition and safety before committing.
