This property presents a unique investment opportunity by combining established commercial premises with approved residential conversion potential. Located in the historic heart of Bideford, 12 Chingswell Street currently consists of spacious offices spread over two levels but comes with Prior Approval for transformation into a charming three-bedroom townhouse. The property stands out due to its private enclosed rear garden, along with an impressive double garage and off-road parking - amenities that are hard to find in town centre locations.
Beyond the existing layout, there is also full planning permission to replace the garage with a detached two-bedroom dwelling, expanding future accommodation options for family or guests. This flexibility makes it suitable for various uses, from continued professional office space to creating a distinct residential home or even generating rental income.
With modest internal alterations required for the conversion—mainly adapting the first-floor office into a bathroom and enhancing other spaces—the potential to enhance value is significant. Bideford's vibrant town centre offers an excellent array of shops and services, coupled with easy access to key transport routes and the stunning North Devon coastline. Given its rarity and versatility, this property is an exceptional find that could meet diverse lifestyle or investment needs.
