Summary - 8 COMPTON AVENUE LUTON LU4 9AZ
17 bed 8 bath Detached
Chain-free former care home with immediate rental or conversion potential.
Chain-free former care home with C2 use
Set on a large plot just 200ft from Leagrave station, this chain-free former care home offers immediate income or redevelopment potential. The substantial detached Tudor Revival building currently provides 17 bedrooms, eight bathrooms and three reception rooms across multiple floors, giving flexibility for HMO, care use (C2) continuation or conversion into apartments (STPP).
The location is a key asset: fast rail links into London, nearby M1 access, and a range of local amenities and highly rated schools within reach. The property has previous planning applications (see Luton Planning Portal ref 19/01395/FUL) which may inform redevelopment options but do not guarantee consent.
Buyers should note this is a former institutional use property and will need conversion works to suit residential lettings or sale units. There are practical considerations including adaptation from C2 use, potential refurbishment costs, and above-average council tax and local crime levels. A site visit is strongly recommended to assess scope and costs before purchase.
This opportunity suits developers or investors seeking a sizeable plot in Leagrave with strong transport links and scope for value uplift through refurbishment or redevelopment subject to planning.
