Live above a refurbished shop — ideal for a small business or investor..
Victorian end-terrace with refurbished shop front
A versatile Victorian end-terrace combining a three-bedroom home and a refurbished shop front, positioned just off the A580 in the heart of Leigh. The ground floor commercial space has been updated externally and presents immediate curb appeal for a small business or rental income, while the upper floors offer a newly renovated living area with a large living room, modern kitchen and three good-sized bedrooms.
Outside there is a generous driveway for 2–3 cars and a detached garage with lighting and electrics — useful for storage, workshop use or additional income. The rear garden is a sunny, private spot and the property benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002).
Important considerations: the commercial interior retains mid-20th-century finishes (acoustic ceiling tiles, fluorescent lighting and counter fixtures) and will need cosmetic updating to suit many business uses. There is a single bathroom for three bedrooms. Tenure details are not provided and the property sits in Council Tax Band A. Constructed c.1930–49, the building will suit buyers comfortable with period fabric and potential further upgrades.
This is a strong option for a small-business owner seeking live/work premises or an investor targeting dual-income potential in a well-connected, low-crime neighbourhood close to schools, shops and public transport.
