West Bay Road, West Bay, Bridport

This Grade II Listed guesthouse, known as Durbeyfield, presents an exciting investment opportunity in the bustling coastal area of West Bay. Originally dating back to its use as a private timber merchant's residence, it has successfully operated as a guesthouse since the 1960s, showcasing period features such as wide floorboards, picture rails, and charming wood panelling that reflect its historical significance. Positioned in a prime trading location, the property benefits from both local and tourist traffic, boasting sea views from several letting rooms. With some thoughtful renovations and updates, there is substantial potential to either enhance the existing guesthouse operations or convert it into a spacious private residence or multiple apartments (subject to relevant planning permissions). The current owners have demonstrated strong business performance with seasonal trade and untapped potential for expanded dining options. In addition to the welcoming interior spaces, outdoor amenities include a large car park, terrace seating area, garage, and private courtyard. The surrounding area offers stunning natural beauty and a variety of attractions that make it an appealing destination year-round.
