This Victorian terraced guest house occupies a prime beachfront position on Brunswick Terrace with direct sea views and a proven trading history. Eight letting rooms (six ensuite), a large guest dining room with panoramic outlook and adaptable owners’ accommodation on the lower ground floor deliver a turnkey holiday-let business in a popular Weymouth location. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support online bookings and remote management.
Key financial and practical strengths include demonstrable income and positive reviews on major booking platforms, plus four guest parking spaces currently leased for guest use. The property’s layout — multiple sizeable double rooms, a family room and singles — gives flexibility to target groups, couples and families to maximise occupancy and yield.
Buyers should note material constraints: this is a leasehold business with only c.36 years remaining on the internal repairing lease (originally 60 years from 2001). Mortgage lenders are likely to refuse lending on such a short lease, and the ground rent is very high at £14,500 per annum. The four guest parking spaces are leased locally and are not owned by the property. The surrounding area scores as very deprived with above-average crime rates, which buyers should factor into pricing and operational risk.
This is a specialist seaside investment: attractive to a purchaser able to buy in cash or a buyer experienced in commercial/leasehold acquisitions who can manage the lease, reviews and parking arrangements. Structurally the property presents as well appointed for trade, but the lease and service/ground rent obligations are the primary deterrents that will limit mainstream mortgage finance and affect long-term resale value.
