An extremely large Victorian mid-terrace arranged over six floors, this vacant former guesthouse offers clear scope for conversion into three self-contained 2-bedroom flats under existing planning consent (24/0676). The property extends to approximately 2,745 sq ft and sits close to Blackpool Tower and Winter Gardens, giving strong rental and short-stay demand potential in a busy town centre location.
The building requires a full refurbishment throughout: cosmetic and structural works, likely heating and electrical upgrades, and removal of the rear extension as per the approved external alterations. The EPC is rated E and the walls are assumed to be uninsulated cavity construction, so energy-efficiency improvements will be necessary to reach contemporary standards.
Sold at auction on 29 October 2025 with a guide price of £138,000, this freehold lot suits experienced investors or developers able to complete refurbishment and manage an in-town conversion. Note auction terms include a 5% deposit (minimum £5,000) and a buyers’ fee of 4.8% (minimum £6,000 inc. VAT); contracts are binding at the point of sale. The surrounding area is very deprived with very high crime levels, which will affect lettability and pricing assumptions.
