Prime town centre location with excellent footfall
Private walled courtyard and secure off‑street parking

Leasehold tenure and nominal ground rent (3)
All services/fixtures untested — buyer to verify and survey
An Edwardian, multi‑storey commercial property in the heart of St Helens, offered chain free and deceptively spacious. The ground floor provides a welcoming reception/retail area with partitioned sections, a rear kitchen and WC, while upper floors include an open landing and three separate rooms — useful for additional trade space, office use or a small salon. A private, walled courtyard and gated rear access add secure outdoor space and off‑street parking for the town centre.
This location benefits from excellent footfall on a busy High Street with many nearby amenities and good public transport links. The property totals approximately 1,087 sq ft and sits on a long lease with some 472 years remaining; ground rent is nominal. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, supporting digital business needs.
Notable concerns are important: the property is leasehold (not freehold), and its immediate area records very high crime and very high deprivation indices. All fixtures, fittings and services have not been tested — buyers must commission their own surveys and checks. The space will suit an investor seeking a town‑centre asset with refurbishment potential, or an operator wanting an immediate trading location who is comfortable managing some local-area challenges.
Overall this is a pragmatic opportunity for an investor or business prepared to capitalise on central location and strong pedestrian traffic, while addressing routine due diligence and potential refurbishment to maximise returns.
