Summary - 49 Staithe Street,Wells-next-the-Sea,NR23 1AG NR23 1AG
3 bed 1 bath Commercial Property
Prominent shop frontage with integrated living above close to the Quay.
Grade II Listed central mixed-use building with retail and cottage
A rare Grade II listed mixed-use property in the centre of Wells-next-the-Sea, offered freehold and chain-free. The building combines a ground-floor retail unit with an adjoining two-storey cottage above and to the rear, all within easy walking distance (about 250 yards) of the Quay and local shops, cafes and amenities.
The retail unit is fitted and trade-ready with good street-facing presence and consistent pedestrian footfall; it is currently on a short-term rolling tenancy, providing immediate rental income or the option to operate a business from home. The cottage provides compact two-storey living: kitchen and sitting/dining room at ground floor with three bedrooms and a shower room on the first floor, plus a west-facing walled courtyard accessible via a pedestrian alley.
Important considerations for buyers: the property is Grade II listed so alterations will be restricted and will require listed-building consent, which may complicate refurbishment or change-of-use plans. The shop has no installed heating and the cottage has gas central heating; the two parts have separate EPC ratings. External space is minimal and the plot is small, so outdoor expansion is limited. The retail unit is registered for business rates (Rateable Value £7,700).
This is best suited to an investor seeking a town-centre income asset with potential upside through longer leases or careful refurbishment, or a hands-on owner-operator wanting prominently located living and trading accommodation in an affluent seaside town.
