A rare freehold holding in a prime city-centre position, this Grade II listed former school offers 16,157 sq ft of character-rich space across multiple levels. Recently refurbished, the building combines period façade and grand proportions with modern features such as LED lighting, air conditioning, raised-access flooring and shower facilities. Ground and first floors are vacant, creating immediate asset-management or repositioning opportunities while basement and second floors are let to existing occupiers.
The site sits directly onto Millennium Square within the Leeds Innovation District, minutes from the main train station, restaurants and university facilities — high footfall and strong tenant demand for creative and accommodation uses. With eight off-street parking spaces, bike store and lockers, the layout supports flexible commercial occupation or conversion schemes.
Conversion options exist subject to planning: residential apartments/co-living, student accommodation, boutique aparthotel or educational uses. However, Grade II listing will impose consenting constraints and additional conservation costs; planning and listed-building consents are likely required for major structural or façade changes. The surrounding area records very high crime levels, which buyers should factor into underwriting and management plans.
