A rare Grade II-listed mid-terrace on Bungay’s Earsham Street, currently run as an artisan bakery with generous upper parts. The main retail frontage benefits from large period windows and steady town-centre footfall close to cafés, deli and car park access. The freehold is offered around £200,000, with a modest commercial rateable value eligible for 100% relief.
The building offers clear reversion and income potential: retain the shop use at ground level and let or occupy the upper floors, or reinstate the upper parts as a 3-bedroom flat with independent rear access and operate a kiosk-style shop to the front. Total area about 1,017 sq ft across multiple floors, with fast broadband and no flood risk.
Buyers should note material constraints. The property is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and likely complicate refurbishment. Heating is by electric storage heaters, walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, and glazing details are not defined. Crime levels are above average and parking is limited to on-street or nearby public car park.
This is suited to investors, owner-operators or specialists in period building conversions who understand listed-building consent, electrical heating upgrades and fabric insulation work. The asset’s central location and low running rates make it an attractive short-term income or conversion project, provided buyers accept the planning and conservation limitations.
