This substantial freehold Victorian mixed-use building occupies a prominent High Street position in Saltney, convenient for Broughton Retail Park and Chester. The ground floor is laid out as a sales area with storage and offices; the first floor provides three bedrooms, a kitchen/diner and a sitting room, giving clear scope for continued commercial use with residential above or for conversion to solely residential or multiple-let accommodation.
The property retains traditional brick character and benefits from mains gas for boiler heating, double glazing installed after 2002, and a very large overall floor area (approx. 1,924 sqft). Its prominent frontage and strong pedestrian visibility are attractive for retail or service occupiers; alternatively an owner-occupier could run a business below and live above.
Important condition notes: the building is vacant and in need of renovation — boarded windows, cluttered/unfinished interiors and some cracked walls are visible. Walls are likely solid brick with no built-in insulation and the EPC is E, so energy performance and thermal upgrading should be expected. The area is described as very deprived with above-average crime rates, which may affect tenant profiles and rental values.
This is a clear buy-for-work/live or refurbishment investment: priced to reflect required repair and energy improvements, it suits an investor or hands-on owner who can carry out refurbishment and target trade customers or local residential demand. Council tax banding is to be confirmed.
