Description

This Grade II Listed building presents a rare investment opportunity in the historic centre of Barnard Castle. Known as 'the meeting house', this property boasts a rich heritage, having played various roles throughout its history—including serving as a Roman Catholic school and a restaurant—before being converted into five self-contained apartments across three levels. The structure is nestled within the Barnard Castle Conservation Area, close to notable local attractions such as the 12th-century castle and Bowes Museum, making it a prime location for both residents and potential tenants. While the apartments retain charming period features such as sash windows with secondary glazing and exposed beams, they are in need of modernization. Each unit includes practical layouts with private entrances, communal areas, and necessary amenities. This offers a unique chance for investors to revitalize these spaces and enhance their value. The property benefits from electric storage heating and some off-street parking, providing convenience within walking distance to local shops, eateries, and scenic riverside walks. Given its no onward chain status, this property awaits your vision to restore its character or capitalize on rental potential in this desirable County Durham town.
