Description

This property presents a unique opportunity for investment with its established history as Morningside Kennels and training centre. It features a 3-bedroom semi-detached cottage alongside approximately 0.88 acres of land, currently accommodating multiple outbuildings used for commercial purposes. Notably, outline planning consent has been granted for the construction of up to four detached dwellings, though the previous kennel block consent has lapsed, offering flexibility for future development once the existing structures are removed. The site is predominantly flat and bordered by trees and hedges, enhancing its appeal for residential conversion or redevelopment. The semi-detached dwelling benefits from mains water and electricity connections, although it relies on a septic tank located within the yard area. With an EPC rating of C and potential for improvement to B, the dwelling invites renovation to elevate its energy efficiency further. Additionally, the property holds strategic access via Drumacre East near Longton Bypass, making it well-positioned between local amenities in Walmer Bridge and New Longton. Given its designation within the South Ribble Local Plan Core Strategy as Green Belt land, any development would be subject to conditions stipulated by planning authorities, creating potential value and return on investment for discerning buyers looking to enhance this property’s future prospects.
