Chain-free mixed-use shop and home with strong renovation potential.
Freehold mixed-use building with retail and residential combined
The Glynne Stores is a mixed-use freehold on Cornist Road offering a ground-floor retail unit with separate residential accommodation above. The building requires a full upgrade and refurbishment throughout, creating scope for a hands-on buyer to convert the space into a family home with an income stream or a single-owner business base. Sold at auction and chain-free, it suits buyers who can manage renovation and navigate auction purchase terms.
Internally the property currently provides a generous lounge, kitchen/diner, cloakroom/WC, and three double bedrooms with a family bathroom. The commercial area comprises a main shop floor plus two store rooms and a storage cupboard, presenting clear potential for re-opening the convenience store, alternative retail uses, or conversion into additional living/workspace subject to consents. There is off-street parking for two to three cars and an enclosed rear yard.
Location is practical for commuters — close to the B5129, A55 and A494, with local bus routes and Flint train station nearby. Local amenities include supermarkets, post offices, and several primary and secondary schools within walking distance. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are reported strong, supporting home working and online retail activity.
Important negatives: the property needs comprehensive renovation and modernisation; parts of the interior show damp and dated finishes. The immediate area is classified as very deprived with high crime and a transitional local population, which may limit rental demand and resale premium. The sale is via secure online auction and the property has not been independently inspected, so buyers should budget for survey and remedial work.
