Summary - THE BAY TREE ESPLANADE HOUSE, REGENT STREET TQ14 8SJ
4 bed 1 bath Apartment
Spacious period building with clear conversion and income potential close to town transport.
Freehold four-bedroom property, approximately 2,333 sq ft
A prominent, characterful four-bedroom freehold on Regent Street offering clear mixed-use potential for investors or owner-occupiers seeking income and space. The building’s Georgian/Victorian façade and large windows deliver strong street presence and generous natural light throughout the principal rooms. Internally the property includes large reception rooms, a sizeable kitchen area and a basement/storage space — adaptable for conversion into multiple units, workspace, or a larger family home.
Practical strengths include a substantial overall size (approximately 2,333 sq ft), double glazing, and a modest front garden that softens the street frontage. The property is chain-free and sits in a town centre location with excellent transport links and many local amenities, including shops, railway access and leisure facilities, supporting rental demand and mixed-use viability.
Buyers should note material drawbacks candidly: there is a single bathroom for four bedrooms, heating is by electric room heaters (no mains gas or communal system), and some areas (basement/storage) require renovation. The building sits in an area with high crime and significant social deprivation, which may affect rental yields, demand and insurance costs. Broadband speeds are slow, which could be a drawback for some tenants or buyers.
Overall this is a substantial, flexible property suited to an investor or developer comfortable with refurbishment and conversion, or a buyer seeking a large, characterful town-centre home with scope to add value through improvement and reconfiguration.
