1 bed 1 bath Hotel
Well-located property near beach and amenities, suited to an investor or operator.
Freehold guest house on Ocean Road, large internal footprint
A substantial freehold guest house on Ocean Road, offered for sale by online auction. The property occupies an extremely large internal footprint (approximately 1,572 sq ft) across multiple floors and retains attractive Edwardian/Victorian period features including bay windows, high ceilings and a stained-glass entryway. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; most rooms have en‑suites and the building benefits from double glazing.
This is a clear investment and refurbishment opportunity. The building is mid-terrace, constructed before 1900 with solid brick walls and assumed no wall insulation — there is scope to improve thermal performance and reduce running costs. The small rear yard limits external space but the location is strong for visitor demand, close to the beach, pier, cafes, bars and frequent public transport links.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property sits in an area flagged as deprived with high local crime rates, and it will be sold at auction under online bidding terms and conditions. Information supplied includes inconsistent room counts (advertised as seven bedrooms, approximate room count listed as six), so any purchaser should verify bedroom totals and layout in person. There is no flood risk and mobile and broadband connectivity are good.
This property will suit a buyer looking to operate or convert a seaside guest house, or an investor prepared to carry out updating works to unlock stronger returns. Legal and auction terms apply; prospective purchasers should complete their own due diligence before bidding.
