This substantial detached property on Monkwood Road is a rare auction opportunity for investors, developers or growing families. Formerly a well-known fish and chip shop, it already has planning consent for full residential use, making conversion straightforward. The building includes five double bedrooms plus an office, a large lounge with French doors, a sizeable kitchen and utility, and a four-piece bathroom suite — useful headroom for a multi-bed family home, HMO or maisonette conversion (STPP).
Set on a large plot with two garages, an outbuilding and generous off-street parking, the site offers scope for extension or subdivision. The separate shop entrance and commercial layout increase flexibility for mixed-use or separate-access accommodation. Practical details are favourable: double glazing, mains gas boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Buyers should note material points before bidding. The property will be sold at auction with a 5% non-refundable deposit on exchange and an additional reservation fee (up to 6% inc VAT, minimum £6,000). The sale is on a Secure Sale/auction basis; legal and AML checks apply and a legal pack should be reviewed. Currently there is a single four-piece bathroom serving five bedrooms — further bathrooms or reconfiguration will likely be needed for large-family or HMO use.
The neighbourhood is an industrious, transitioning area with high local deprivation and average crime levels; nearby schools are mostly rated Good. Transport links to the M1 and M18 and local bus routes are strong, supporting rental demand and commuter convenience. EPC rating D and mid-20th-century construction mean buyers should budget for typical maintenance and modernisation during conversion.
