The interior of the actual "houses" on the street were as you said used as storage rooms. However, the stairs were real, the first floors were like a long corridor split into different rooms, they were used as meeting rooms for the production staff, or for occasional shots when a character was seen at their "bedroom" window.
You could go into the rovers return set when i went around 18 years ago. you could film your own piece mixed in with ken barlow via a green screen and it was put onto video.
The Rovers was just an empty exterior set, the actual interior was housed in the adjacent Studio 1 building along with most other of the interior sets. There was a mock-up of the Rovers on a separate part of the lot which actually operated as a real pub when the original Granada Studio tours was open to the public. After the tour closed, the fake Rovers was used as a waiting room for studio audiences.

its a pity that they got rid of it, i would say people would travel to see the street if it was still there
