Easier to convert from commercial to residential than the other way around, as you have no issues with fire cert, disabled access cert etc. You'll need planning permission at a minimum though. The rest, you'll need a professional to carry out a desk/site review to identify any other issues you might face, as they're more site-specific. The fact it was previously a residential building works in your favour though.
