Corner high-street premises with development upside and on-site accommodation.
Corner four-storey stone building overlooking market square
A striking four-storey stone building occupying a prominent corner position on Kirkby Stephen’s market square. The ground floor provides generous shop space with street access, feature fireplaces and sash windows; upper floors offer flexible residential accommodation and useful cellar storage. Recent partial works include full re-wiring, new electric heaters and some re-plastering.
This is a clear development and investment play. The property is sold freehold with scope to complete the remaining renovation to suit a single owner-occupier or create separate commercial and residential lettable units. High ceilings, period stone façades and original vault/cellar add character and practical storage, while dormer windows and large rooms give scope for comfortable living accommodation above.
Buyers should allow for retained works: renovation is unfinished and the building requires completion to modern standards throughout. Broadband speeds are very slow and the plot is very small, typical of a town-centre unit. There is no flood risk, but prospective purchasers should confirm any listed-building controls or planning constraints before committing.
Well positioned for passing trade, local amenities and regional links (A66 and M6 nearby), this property suits investors seeking high-street rental income, an owner-operator wanting on-site accommodation, or a small developer able to finish and reconfigure the interior to maximise returns.
