This compact town-centre development offers planning permission to convert two adjoining properties into 2 x three-bedroom dwellings, a straightforward scheme for developers or investors seeking a close-to-harbour location. The site benefits from freehold title and full vacant possession, reducing acquisition complexity and enabling a rapid start on works once contracts complete.
Positioned on Bolton Street, the plot sits moments from Brixham’s harbour, marina and high street amenities, with steady tourist footfall and ongoing local regeneration supporting rental and holiday-let demand. Good road links to Paignton, Torquay and the A380 add commuting and seasonal visitor appeal.
Practical constraints are clear: the plot is small with limited private external amenity space, and the area records above-average crime and higher deprivation levels, which will influence rental values and buyer profiles. There is a medium flood risk — suitable mitigation and insurer confirmation will be required. Buyers should factor in façade and internal refurbishment to bring the Victorian retail/shopfront and upper floors to modern residential standards.
For the right buyer this is an affordable, lower-risk conversion opportunity: planning in place for two family-sized homes near the seafront makes the scheme suitable for build-to-sell, buy-to-let or holiday-let strategies. Budget for necessary renovation, flood mitigation and appropriate security measures to maximise value in this busy coastal town.
