Set on 1.5 acres in the conservation village of Innerwick, The Old Workshop is a converted three-bedroom barn that pairs countryside seclusion with coastal outlooks. The main living spaces are bright and recently refreshed, offering a modern living room, fitted kitchen and two upstairs bedrooms with sea views; one bedroom includes an ensuite. The stone-built parts retain low ceilings and a cosy cottage character.
The expansive plot is the standout asset: beyond the garden and parking, the large field offers scope for small-scale commercial use. The current owner has had plans drawn up for five glamping pods (application status not stated), presenting a clear business or income-generation opportunity alongside residential use. Home Report valuation: £360,000; current asking price: £340,000.
Practical features include double glazing, electric central heating, fast-flow hot water and off-street parking. Mobile signal is excellent but broadband speeds are average. There is no flood risk recorded. Council tax is above average for the area, and the property is sold freehold.
Important considerations: the overall internal floor area is modest (approximately 632 sq ft) and some rooms have low ceilings in the historic stone section. The wider local area is classified as a remoter community with higher measured deprivation; services and public transport are limited compared with urban locations. Planning for additional pods has been drawn up but is not confirmed, so any commercial expansion would require application and approval.
