Large listed coastal guest house with bar, function room and parking — investor opportunity.
Grade II listed Georgian house dating to 1704, lots of period character
Moonfleet is a substantial Grade II listed Georgian house set in Skinningrove, occupying over 5,500 sq ft across three stories with large rooms and high ceilings. Currently run as a guest house, it includes seven double en suite bedrooms, a licensed bar, games room and an impressive 50ft function room — offering immediate trading income or clear scope to expand hospitality or mixed commercial/residential uses. The property also benefits from a large gated parking area, a garden that could be used as an outdoor beer garden, and an elevated coastal position close to Cattersty Sands and the Cleveland Way.
The building’s historic status and period features are major selling points for a buyer wanting character and authentic seaside appeal, and its location in a popular walking and tourist corridor between Saltburn and Staithes supports seasonal footfall. Practical services include mains gas heating (two boilers), mains water and electricity, and excellent mobile signal with fast broadband — useful for both guests and remote working owners.
Buyers should note material constraints: Grade II listing will restrict alterations and will complicate planning and renovation works. The village sits in a very deprived ward with above-average local crime, factors that can affect staffing, lettings and insurance costs. The house has been refurbished in stages by the current owner but will still require ongoing maintenance and sensitive conservation-style repairs appropriate to a listed building.
This property will suit an investor or operator seeking an established coastal guest house with room to grow, a purchaser prepared to manage a listed asset, or a buyer wanting a distinctive period house with commercial potential. Clear opportunity exists to enhance trading, broaden events use, or convert elements subject to listed consent and local planning constraints.
