A COMMERCIAL property in the heart of Liskeard is set to go under the hammer with a freehold guide price of £60,000-plus.

The terraced building on Fore Street comes with planning permission to convert part of the ground floor and all upper floors into a five-bedroom house in multiple occupation, while retaining a ground-floor retail unit.

It is one of 161 lots in Clive Emson Auctioneers’ December sale.

Auction appraiser James Lofthouse said: “This substantial property is well located in Liskeard town centre and offers an attractive opportunity for residential conversion along with a retail unit to maximise rental potential.”

Also listed is a 0.05-hectare parcel of land at Pendray Gardens in Dobwalls, guided at £500 to £1,000 and offered by Cornwall Council. The auction concludes on December 11.
