A substantial Grade II listed three-storey building in central Droitwich, offering 1,580 sq ft of adaptable space across ground, first, second floors and a useable dry basement. High ceilings, sash windows and period brickwork give strong character and appeal for sensitive residential conversion or continued commercial use.
The property is offered with conversion potential (subject to planning) but the listed status will restrict changes and may add cost and delay. Tenure is unknown and buyers should allow for Listed Building consent alongside any planning application. The plot is small and there is no guarantee of off-street parking.
Location provides strong transport links—M5 Junction 5 nearby and regular rail services to Worcester and Birmingham—making the building attractive to developers or operators seeking town-centre presence. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent. Note the local area has high crime levels and is relatively deprived; security and management considerations will be important for future uses.
This property suits a buyer experienced with listed buildings and planning processes: developers, investors or operators wanting a period shell with good floorplates and a dry basement. Full surveys and pre-application planning advice are recommended before purchase.
