269 Lord Street, Southport

An excellent investment opportunity has arisen for a Grade II listed former bank right in the heart of Southport’s Lord Street. 

This distinctive former bank has fine detailing to main façade, fine detailing internally at ground floor, ground floor extensions and benefits from private10-space car park to rear.  A lot of original features also exist to upper floors such as cast iron radiators, fielded and panelled doors and fire places.

This property comes with the benefit of full planning permission for conversion of vacant upper floors to No. 9 residential units and retention of ground floor as Class E.  The permission requires refurbishment of windows and permits a new door access to the rear elevation and removal of the external metal staircases and upper floor external doors to be replaced with windows.

The existing permission requires commencement of development by 18 July 2028 and is for a mix of 1-bed and 2-bed units.  For any deviation from the current permission, or change of use class for the ground floor, we recommend discussions with the Conservation Team and/or Southport Planning Support prior to submitting any applications.
