Seven-bedroom period property with parking and Lakeland views, ideal for guesthouse conversion..
Victorian seven-bedroom terraced property with strong B&B potential
Abacourt House is a late-Victorian seven-bedroom terraced property with strong guesthouse potential in the Lake District National Park. Set in an elevated, quiet cul-de-sac on Stanger Street, it occupies a small plot with valuable off-street parking to the rear and views over surrounding fells. Period features — bay windows, cornices and a high-ceilinged entrance — give immediate character and appeal to holiday or B&B guests.
The current layout is described as five letting bedrooms with ensuites plus a two-bedroom owners’ apartment, which supports an income-producing model. Its central Keswick location is an easy walk to shops, cafés and attractions, while the town’s excellent mobile signal and fast broadband suit modern bookings and remote management. The property is freehold and benefits from no local flood risk and an affluent wider area.
Buyers should note the official data lists just one bathroom — this conflicts with the described ensuites. Confirming the internal layout and sanitary provision is essential before purchase. The plot is small and the building’s age means original features may require ongoing maintenance; updates have been carried out over time but a thorough inspection is recommended. The neighbourhood is described as a transitional, ageing urban community, which may influence long-term staffing or letting dynamics.
This property will suit an investor or buyer wanting an established guesthouse conversion close to Keswick town centre. Its combination of period charm, parking and elevated views offers clear letting appeal, provided buyers verify the room-by-room accommodation, servicing arrangements and any remaining refurbishment needs.
