Summary - 46, BURROWGATE CA11 7TA
1 bed 1 bath House
Compact freehold commercial building with conversion potential subject to permissions.
Grade II listed 17th‑century cottage with strong period features
A rare 17th‑century Grade II listed cottage in the heart of Penrith, offered freehold and currently arranged as a cafe/shop across ground, first and attic floors. Stone walls, exposed beams and original fireplaces give the building strong period character that attracts customers and tenants seeking authentic space in a busy town centre.
The layout provides immediate commercial use with a ground dining/shop floor, kitchen, first‑floor dining/shop area, store, WC and a useful attic — about 726 sq ft in total. For an investor or owner‑operator this is a compact, manageable property with clear rental or trading potential close to local amenities and transport links.
Important constraints are factual: the property is Grade II listed, so alterations will be restricted and any residential conversion requires separate planning permission (not confirmed). Business rates details are to be confirmed. The building fronts directly onto pavement with no private outdoor space, and the area records higher local crime levels, which may affect certain uses or insurance costs.
Overall this is best suited to a commercial buyer or investor seeking a character premises in a prime town location, or to someone prepared to navigate listed‑building consent and planning for a change of use. The freehold ownership and compact size keep operational and ownership costs straightforward once permissions and ratings are established.
