Summary - St. Sepulchre Street, Scarborough, YO11 YO11 1QF
8 bed 2 bath Detached
Short walk to seafront, ideal for conversion or rental income.
8 bedrooms across approximately 2,498 sq ft, freehold
A rare find for investors or developers: this freehold 8-bedroom detached home occupies nearly 2,500 sq ft in central Scarborough, a short walk from the seafront and local amenities. The property includes a private car park for two cars and a courtyard garden — practical assets in this location.
The building dates from the late 20th century and retains mid-century character features and large bright rooms, but will need updating. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; windows are double glazed (installed before 2002). External walls are cavity as built with no added insulation (assumed), so improvement works could reduce running costs and increase value.
This layout offers straightforward development potential: the current configuration could be converted into two separate four-bedroom houses, or managed as a large HMO/house-share subject to consents. Council Tax Band C and freehold tenure simplify operating costs, but local market conditions reflect a very deprived area with very high recorded crime — factors investors must weigh against rental demand near the seafront and local colleges.
Buyers should budget for refurbishment and modernisation (electrics, insulation, kitchens/bathrooms and cosmetic works). The property is best suited to investors, social landlords, or buyers planning a conversion project who are comfortable working in a challenging neighbourhood environment.
