Glenfield Road, Heaton Chapel, Stockport, Cheshire. Lot TBC, £680,000 Starting Bid
This lot represents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial property of approximately 2,842 sq. ft. across four levels in a highly sought-after location.
Previously operated as Penarth House with a C2 licence for residential care use, the property is now vacant and offers significant potential for a range of future uses, including a large family home or as an income-generating HMO.
The accommodation comprises a basement with multiple storage rooms, office space, a utility area, and bathroom facilities.
The ground floor features a front porch, entrance hall, two reception rooms, a dining room, a kitchen/breakfast room, a utility room, a bathroom, and additional office space.
On the first floor, there are five generously sized bedrooms and a family bathroom, while the second floor offers two further bedrooms, a lounge area, and additional storage space.
Glenfield Road is a freehold property sold with vacant possession, and with so much potential as a family home or investment opportunity, it’s certainly a property to watch!
Glenfield Road, Heaton Chapel, Stockport
Milkstone Road, Rochdale. Lot TBC, £899,000 Starting Bid
As a substantial former care home offered vacant, providing a unique investment or development opportunity in a well-connected part of Rochdale, this lot offers another opportunity to acquire a large property with great development potential.
The property was previously operated as a retirement home and retains a layout with communal facilities, multiple bathrooms, a kitchen, offices, a laundry room, a lounge and dining room and 30 bedrooms, making it well-suited for a variety of future uses.
There is clear potential for conversion into a large-scale HMO, subject to planning and licensing consents. Based on local rental levels, a fully compliant scheme could achieve an annual income in the region of £200,000 per annum.
Equally, the building may be suitable for alternative redevelopment. Its scale and footprint suggest it could be reconfigured into self-contained flats or other supported accommodation, subject to the necessary approvals.
Mill Line, Enniskillen, Derrygonnelly. Lot TBC, £90,000 Starting Bid
A well-presented three-bedroom mid-terrace townhouse located in the heart of Derrygonnelly, offered with vacant possession and presenting scope for investors or owner-occupiers. Edward Mellor has not inspected this property.
The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, a lounge, a kitchen/dining room, three bedrooms, a bathroom and an additional WC. The property benefits from oil-fired central heating, double glazing, gardens to the front and rear, and is sold freehold.
The property would now benefit from cosmetic updating, but has been well maintained with modern finishes and neutral décor.
There is strong rental demand locally, with similar homes achieving in the region of £700- £800pcm, offering gross yields of around 7.8% at guide price (PropertyPal Rental Search).
Northern Ireland continues to offer higher yields than many parts of mainland UK, with Fermanagh three-bed homes averaging 6.8%, compared with a typical 4.6% in the North West of England (PropertyPal Market Report Q2 2025).
Mill Line, Enniskillen, Derrygonnelly
Alexandra Street, Ashton-under-Lyne. Lot TBC, £70,000 Starting Bid
This lot represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a ‘turn-key’ rental property that is ready to start generating income.
The property is a tenanted terraced house with a lounge, kitchen with built-in oven and hob, double bedroom and bathroom, and a rear yard.
The home has gas central heating and double glazing. It is currently let on an AST with a guaranteed rent of £7200 per annum for three years from 01/04/24.
Located in a popular area offering easy access to Tameside General Hospital, King George V Playing Fields, and Ashton Sixth Form College, it is also perfect for public transport links and the M60.
Alexandra Street, Ashton-under-Lyne
Land Adjacent to Holly House Farm, Great Sankey. Lot TBC, £155,000 Starting Bid
Here we have an exceptional opportunity to acquire a private plot adjacent to Holly House Farm, with full planning permission granted (Ref: 2025/00474/FUL) for the construction of two executive four-bedroom detached homes.
Situated in the highly sought-after area of Great Sankey, this development offers a perfect blend of modern living in a prestigious residential location.
The approved plans include spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas ideal for contemporary family life, together with a separate formal living room and a practical utility room. Each property will provide four generous double bedrooms, with the master benefiting from its own en-suite, creating homes that are as functional as they are stylish.
With an estimated GDV of £900,000 and potential to exceed this figure depending on the chosen specification and finish, this site represents an attractive investment opportunity for developers, builders, or self-build buyers looking to create two stunning family homes in a private setting within one of Warrington’s most desirable areas.
