An imposing detached Victorian residence set on a substantial 0.72-acre corner plot, formerly run as an 11-bedroom HMO and with planning permission for a 14-bedroom HMO. The house retains many original period features, offers multiple kitchens, lounges and bathrooms across four floors plus a large basement, and includes original stables/outbuildings and generous driveway parking. Offered freehold and chain-free, the property suits investors seeking an HMO income stream or a developer looking to convert/restore a character home.
The property is a renovation project: heating is electric storage, glazing is mixed with some single glazing noted, and external solid brick walls are assumed to be uninsulated. These factors, together with the building's age and multi-room layout, mean substantial refurbishment and updating will be required to modern standards and EPC improvement measures.
Location strengths include quick access to the M6 and Preston city centre (approx. 10 minutes), good local schools and amenities in Leyland/Lostock Hall, very low local crime and excellent broadband and mobile signal. The large plot and outbuildings provide scope for garden landscaping, parking expansion or ancillary development subject to consents.
Buyers should factor in renovation costs, potential conservation constraints on historic fabric, and higher council tax (Band G). Viewing is recommended for those considering a conversion, investment HMO operation, or a sympathetic restoration to a sizable family residence.
