Grade 2-listed Partnership House, the former vicarage of the medieval gothic St Chad’s Church, dates back to 1724 and is set in its own 1.07 acres of private grounds and gardens.
Located on Sparrow Hill in Broadfield Park, close to Rochdale Town Hall, the historic property is described as ‘a fine example of Georgian architecture with many internal and external features’. Originally built for the Reverend Dunster, the eye catching design was based on a similar house in London.
The building is currently owned by Rochdale Borough Council although over the years it has had a number of occupiers, most recently being used as offices. Built in the 18th century, it was extended in 1820 and 1990 although is now in need of refurbishment and upgrading.
The building with attic has various potential uses and subject to planning consent these could include residential, offices, tourism or hospitality. It is on sale for £425,000 with a 125- or 150-year lease and is described as ‘a unique landmark development opportunity, suitable for ‘conversion to residential, commercial or mixed use.’
