                    I recently bought a 3 storey weavers cottage for cash.  The ground floor (about 30% of total area) is commercial and my daughter is opening a photographic studio later this year.  She has money to cover opening the business but I need to borrow as the residential part of the property needs quite a lot of refurbishment, eg. new windows, boiler etc.  It seems I can't get a residential mortgage but the money I need is not for the commercial part of the building. I've tried searching "part residential mortgages" without success and I'm a bit confused.  Has anyone come across this before?
