Summary - 140 MANCHESTER ROAD NELSON BB9 7AH
3 bed 1 bath Not Specified
Prominent mixed-use shop needing renovation with upper-floor conversion potential.
Prominent Victorian shop front on busy Manchester Road
A Victorian mixed-use shop on Manchester Road presents a clear refurbishment and rental opportunity in Nelson. The ground-floor retail frontage sits on a busy main road close to the town centre, offering footfall potential for a new trader. Upper floors have been stripped back to brickwork, creating a blank canvas for conversion or completion.
The property requires substantial renovation: much of the interior is unfinished and the current ownership is leasehold. There is potential to create a flat on the upper floors, but that would depend on obtaining the necessary planning consents. A rear yard provides some outdoor space and service access.
This location suits investors or experienced developers who can manage renovation works and navigate leasehold and planning processes. Be aware of local challenges: the area is very deprived and crime levels are above average, which may affect rental values and tenant mix. Broadband speeds are reported fast and local schools and amenities are nearby, supporting residential demand if conversion succeeds.
