High-street shop plus renovated two-bedroom apartment — proven holiday-let income.
Grade II listed High Street freehold with retail and apartment
A rare Grade II listed high-street freehold in Blakeney combining an income-producing ground-floor shop with a spacious, recently renovated two-bedroom apartment above. The shop has an established trading history, rear access, cellar, kitchenette and WC — flexible for similar retail uses or alternative commercial uses subject to consents. The first-floor apartment is finished to a high standard with vaulted, timbered ceiling, oak floors, quality fitted kitchen and two bathrooms; it benefits from strong holiday-let performance (78% occupancy, 86% repeat guests) and is sold fully furnished.
This property suits an investor or owner-occupier seeking immediate income and coastal-location appeal. The apartment’s layout and finishes support continued holiday-let income or longer-term rental, while the shop’s central High Street position places it moments from Blakeney Quay and local amenities. Broadband speeds are slow locally, but mobile signal is excellent — relevant for marketing and day-to-day operations.
Buyers should note material considerations: the building is Grade II listed, which may restrict alterations and could complicate maintenance and planning. The plot is very small with limited external space (shingled rear courtyard only). Despite extensive renovation, historic fabric and listed status can mean higher ongoing repair costs and specialist maintenance. The property is offered with vacant possession and freehold title, with business rates and small business relief details provided for the commercial and residential elements.
