A substantial Grade II listed stone building in the heart of Clitheroe, this multi-storey property offers clear scope for income or residential redevelopment. The long, versatile floorplan, high ceilings and large sash windows deliver attractive natural light throughout, while period features such as stone and cast-iron fireplaces give strong character that will appeal to discerning buyers.
Offered with no onward chain and spanning approximately 2,453 sq ft over two floors plus cellar, the building currently functions as commercial/office space with a prominent shopfront onto Church Street. It includes a private paved courtyard at the rear and several large rooms that could be reconfigured. There is potential for partial or full conversion to residential use, subject to planning and listed-building consents from Ribble Valley Borough Council.
Important constraints are factual: the property is Grade II listed, so any alterations must respect historical fabric and will add cost, time and regulatory oversight. It is leasehold (very long lease remaining) rather than freehold, and the interior requires modernisation to meet contemporary residential or high-spec commercial standards. These factors should be included in feasibility and budget planning.
This is best suited to a buyer experienced with listed conversions—an investor or developer looking for a central, character-rich building with multiple reuse options, or a purchaser prepared to undertake a sensitive renovation to create a distinctive town-centre home or mixed-use scheme.
