Mixed Use

Property Description:

This is a rare and exciting opportunity to purchase a substantial and versatile former Old Primitive Chapel dating back to1884, which has now been extensively adapted into a considerable, hi specification and flexible commercial premises, and also incorporating a separate two-bedroomed Vicarage Apartment, with the benefit of solar panel underfloor heating. There is also an extensive rear yard. We believe the Chapel was sympathetically refurbished in 2010 at a cost in excess of £350,000.

Furthermore, the property offers excellent development potential, having had previous planning consent (now lapsed) (dated July 2006) for the conversion of 3 x self-contained luxury apartments in the roof space, after demolition of existing single storey buildings to rear of the premises.

Planning Details: Sefton Council: Planning No: N/2006/0470. Dated: 7 July 2006.

The Chapel occupies a prominent position, fronting Cemetery Road, just a short distance from Southport town centre and benefits from good transport links including a local bus network, Southport Railway Station and direct access to A570 and A565.

Having been fully renovated/refurbished, from roofs to solar panel powered heated floors and everything else in between,being occupied and well maintained by the current owner for approximately ten years, the property is now being sold due to retirement.
