Set on Church Plain at the top of the Market Place, this three‑storey Victorian commercial building offers 1,129 sq ft of flexible space and clear potential for residential conversion under Permitted Development Rights. The brick façade and arched doorway give immediate period character while large front windows capture town‑centre views over the Market Place and Minster Grounds.
Currently arranged as offices across ground, first and second floors, the layout includes a reception, multiple offices, a first‑floor kitchen and a second‑floor bathroom, plus loft storage. Services appear to be connected (gas central heating to the first‑floor boiler, mains utilities) which reduces initial infrastructure work for conversion buyers or continued commercial use.
This is a pragmatic opportunity: the property is being sold freehold and benefits from a low business rates assessment (rateable value £6,700), potentially supporting short‑term income or a conversion project. Permitted Development Rights may allow complete residential conversion, but prospective buyers should confirm details with Great Yarmouth Borough Council before committing.
Be clear about the practical realities. The property sits in an area of high crime and very high deprivation, and external parking is limited to short‑stay on‑street spaces. The plot is small and internal rooms are average in size, so conversion layouts will need careful planning. Overall, this is best suited to a buyer seeking a central, character property for refurbishment and repurposing rather than a turnkey home.
