A substantial stone-built property on Church Street, offered freehold as an online auction lot. At around 4,013 sq ft across multiple floors, the building was formerly a club with living accommodation and sits on an elevated position with open townscape views and a surfaced forecourt providing off-street parking.
The lot is aimed at developers or investors. Partial refurbishment work has been started but the property requires significant repair and full renovation; services are present (mains gas boiler and radiators, double glazing) but many internal finishes need renewal. Previous planning applications for 9 and 12 apartments are visible on the Kirklees planning portal as indicative schemes — redevelopment, conversion, HMO or demolition and rebuild are all possible routes, subject to planning consent.
Buyers should note this is a traditional online auction sale with bidding open from 12:00 noon on 12 November to 12:00 noon on 13 November. Auction purchase is a legally binding contract with immediate deposit and fees payable; check the legal pack for special conditions, potential additional charges and disbursements. The property occupies a large plot edge position but sits within a deprived urban area, so factor local market and management considerations into any scheme.
In short: strong redevelopment potential and a sizeable footprint, but significant remedial works, access constraints to the front entrance, and planning/financial risks accompany the opportunity.
