Description

An exciting development opportunity comprising a substantial detached villa set in private grounds and benefitting from its own private driveway with significant scope to be re-designed and transformed into a variety of possible future uses (subject to consents). The property was formerly used as part of the adjoining NHS hospital site but has been vacant for some time and offers significant potential for extension (STP) and improvement. Internally, the accommodation is arranged over basement, ground, first and second floors measuring a total of 621 Sq.M (6,684 Sq.Ft) comprising a number of en-suite bedrooms and associated living and ancillary areas. This is a unique opportunity to acquire a character property with an abundance of scope for future use including bespoke apartments, a single dwelling or striking office accommodation (subject to planning).

The property forms part of the wider NHS Guild Park hospital site and is directly accessed from Cumeragh Lane via a private driveway which leads to a turning area. The immediate surrounding area is a popular residential location in a semi-rural setting 7 miles north of Preston.
