Spacious development opportunity close to local amenities and transport.
Victorian three-storey red-brick building with original character features
This imposing three-storey Victorian red-brick building sits on a prominent corner in Scarborough’s south cliff area and offers substantial scope for conversion or refurbishment. Previously run as a registered care facility, the property retains period character — bay windows, gabled elevations and high ceilings — and provides a very large internal footprint across multiple floors.
The existing layout delivered many reception rooms, offices and bedroom spaces suitable for continuing care use or reconfiguration into a large family home or multiple flats, subject to planning consent. The property will need a comprehensive programme of modernisation throughout, offering an opportunity to add significant value once improved.
Practical considerations are straightforward: freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The plot is relatively small with a walled front yard and on-street parking only. Local amenities, schools and transport links are close by, making the site viable for residential reuse or specialist housing schemes.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly: the building needs renovation throughout, the site sits in an area with above-average crime levels, and the current record lists minimal formal bedrooms/bathrooms despite the former care layout. Those looking for a ready-to-move property should expect significant time and cost for refurbishment and for securing any required consents for change of use or subdivision.
