This Grade II listed heritage building, dating back to 1687, presents a rare investment opportunity in the heart of Bakewell, a sought-after market town in the Peak District. With planning consent recently obtained for conversion into two residential units—an expansive five-bedroom property spanning four floors and a three-bedroom dwelling over two floors—this site offers significant potential for both personal use and rental income.
The main living areas feature an impressive vaulted ceiling made of arched gritstone, providing a unique backdrop for modern updates while retaining historic charm. Additionally, the layout includes ample space across multiple levels, allowing for flexible living arrangements and accommodation.
The property is situated within walking distance of local amenities such as shops and schools, alongside major attractions like Chatsworth House and the Monsal Trail. Given its central location, it also benefits from good accessibility to larger cities such as Manchester and Sheffield.
While some restoration may be necessary to modernize interior aspects and ensure compliance with listed building regulations, this project is primed for savvy investors looking to capitalize on historical properties in high-demand areas. The external space features garden areas with outbuildings that can be repurposed or enhanced further contributing to the property's overall appeal.
