A substantial three‑storey freehold commercial building in central Birkenhead, offered with proven rental income of £37,500 per year and outlined planning permission for 20 apartments. The site includes an off‑street car park for up to 20 vehicles and basic security fit‑outs (shutters, alarm, CCTV), supporting both continued commercial use and redevelopment options. The building’s mid‑20th century construction and large windows provide good natural light but will require conversion works to achieve residential standards.
This lot is sold at auction, making it suitable for experienced investors or developers who can progress outlined planning to full consent. The property sits close to transport links, the university and town centre amenities, helping lettability for future apartments. Broadband and mobile coverage are strong, supporting modern occupancy requirements.
Buyers should factor in the material negatives: the area is very deprived with high recorded crime, which may affect rental values, financing and insurance costs. The planning is outlined rather than full consent, so there will be time, cost and risk to obtain detailed approvals and carry out refurbishment or conversion. Expect refurbishment and compliance works to meet current residential building regulations and possible retention or replacement of some services.
Overall, this is a high‑potential redevelopment site for a buyer willing to manage auction purchase timing, planning progression and refurbishment in a challenging urban market.
