A substantial freehold building in a prominent London Road position, offered with vacant possession and clear potential for residential conversion under Class MA (subject to prior approval). The linked Edwardian/Victorian offices total 3,354 sq ft over three floors plus two small basement rooms, and include forecourt parking for six cars with additional rear spaces that could accommodate about nine vehicles.
The location delivers city-centre convenience: opposite the Combined Law Courts, close to hotels, shops and Southampton railway station, and surrounded by other converted apartment buildings. This makes the site appealing to investors or developers seeking a conversion opportunity with excellent transport links and local amenities.
The property requires modernisation and some maintenance — roof wear and general wear are noted, and the building has an EPC asset rating of 122 (Band E). The immediate area records very high crime levels and is classified as deprived, which will affect rental values and resale positioning; these factors should be weighed into any conversion appraisal or refurbishment budget. Business Rates are assessed at a Rateable Value of £42,750.
Offered at a guide price of £650,000, this is a value-driven redevelopment prospect for buyers able to manage prior approval processes and deliver a sensitive refurbishment or conversion scheme. The site’s scale, central position and existing parking provision are strong practical advantages for a residential scheme or continued commercial use.
