Wolverhampton office building for sale at auction

One of a historic terrace of Victorian properties in Wolverhampton city centre is set to go under the hammer at auction.

Used as solicitors offices for many years, the three-storey building is being offered with vacant possession and could be converted to a range of different uses, given the necessary planning permission.

The Grade II listed property at 22 Waterloo Road is listed with a guide price of £280,000.

Ian Tudor, commercial auction director at Bond Wolfe, said: “This is a significant and attractive property in Wolverhampton’s professional quarter, occupied by a well-established solicitors’ practice for many years.

“While it could continue with its existing use, it is clearly suitable for a variety of alternative commercial or residential uses, subject to planning permission.”

The building dates back to around 1850 and is part of Waterloo Road’s Claremont Terrace, made up of six former Victorian houses now converted for use as offices.

Tudor said: “The building is currently configured to provide a ground floor entrance hallway, spacious reception, three office and an inner lobby with a tea area and two WCs.

“On the first floor there is a landing, four offices and a kitchen. On the second floor there is a landing and three further offices.

“The property has basement storage and rear car parking for four vehicles accessed from Red Lion Street.”

It is just one of scores of properties appearing in Bond Wolfe’s next auction which starts at 9am on Thursday 13 July.
