Retail property (high street)

Londesborough Mews is a former coach house and stable building that was converted approximately 15 years ago into four individual, high-quality properties that can be used as permanent dwellings but have been run by the current owners as a very successful Holiday Letting business, generating a gross income of approximately £80,000 pa (2-year average).

The properties include a one-bedroom unit, a two-bedroom unit, and two three-bedroom units. All the properties were converted to a high standard and enjoy gas-fired central heating, full double glazing, and Kingspan insulation to the walls.  They are also being sold fully furnished.

Location

Tucked away in a quiet location, the properties are approached from a pedestrian access off Thorpe Street and are conveniently located only a short walk from the South beach, harbour, Spa theatre, and the Town Centre.  Bridlington is a popular East Coast resort town offering an excellent range of amenities and good public transport connections.
