A prominent six-bedroom, sea-front semi-detached property arranged over four floors, offered vacant and due to be sold at online auction. The building sits directly on Blackpool Promenade with panoramic Irish Sea outlooks from the front rooms and an enclosed driveway providing off-street parking. Built in the 1930s–1940s, the house combines period frontage and modernised elements including triple glazing and a fitted kitchen.
This lot will suit investors or developers seeking a prominent seaside building with conversion potential (subject to planning and consents). The accommodation footprint (around 2,702 sq ft) and separate lower-ground level offer scope for holiday-lets, a guest-house conversion or multi-room rental, and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support short-term let operation.
Buyers must weigh clear drawbacks: the advertised bathroom count is low (1), so significant reconfiguration will likely be needed to match the described en-suite layout or multiple-occupancy use. The property is in a very deprived area with very high local crime statistics and a wider area classification of “hampered aspiration,” which will affect rental values, insurance costs and lettings demand. Cavity walls are present with no insulation assumed, so additional thermal upgrades may be required.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, mains gas heating (boiler and radiators), a decent plot with raised decking and courtyard, and immediate vacant possession to support quick redevelopment. Interested buyers should inspect, verify the internal room/bathroom details, and allow budget for refurbishment, permissions and safety-related works prior to occupation or letting.
