Property Description
A blank canvas with two winning plays: trade on the High Street, or convert (Class MA) and live upstairs.
Two storeys. Heart-of-town position. Big value-add potential.
The Opportunity
Some properties sell themselves on polish.
This one sells itself on potential.
Set at the entrance to Warsop's one-way High Street, 39 High Street is a stripped-back, two-storey unit ready for a new chapter, whether that's a boutique, café, studio or tanning salon at street level, with existing consent to convert the first floor to residential, or a fuller commercial-to-residential play (subject to prior approval under Class MA).
You bring the vision; this building brings the location, the footprint and the upside.

Space & Potential
Current Configuration Two storeys, stripped back to shell, a straightforward refurb where your spend goes into finishes, branding and layout rather than undoing someone else's design.
Commercial Angles - Retail / boutique frontage to capture High Street footfall - Café / takeaway concept in a compact, manageable footprint - Tanning salon / studio (beauty, wellness, nails, barbers) with simple servicing - Office / clinic (professional services, treatment rooms)
Development Angles - First floor already consented for residential conversion - Wider Class MA potential to convert part or whole of the building to C3 (dwelling houses), subject to the prior approval process
Planning - Class MA Explained
What is Class MA?
A permitted development right in England allowing change of use from Class E (commercial, business and service) to Class C3 (dwelling houses) via a prior approval application to the local planning authority.
Key Points: - Applies to a wide range of Class E uses (shops, cafés, offices, gyms, clinics and more) - The local authority considers impacts including highways, flood risk, contamination, noise to future residents and natural light for habitable rooms - All approved works must be completed within three years of the approval date - Article 4 directions, designated land and listed status may restrict these rights - March 2024 amendments removed the 1,500 m² limit and vacancy test, making conversions more accessible - but buyers should always verify the current requirements with their local authority
We can introduce planning consultants if you wish to explore a full or partial Class MA conversion.
