Description

Moor Farm is a coastal farmstead comprising two existing farmhouses and a group of traditional brick and pantile barns on approximately 2.02 acres. Full planning permission has been granted for seven barn conversions, providing 21 bedrooms across about 8,560 sq ft in total. The approved homes range from a two-bedroom cottage to a four-bedroom property, alongside the two existing three-bedroom farmhouses, which have two reception rooms, a kitchen and a study or craft room each. The farmhouses are described as unmodernised and requiring refurbishment, while the barns require full renovation and conversion. The consent is subject to conditions, including discharge of the Biodiversity Gain Plan condition, ecological requirements and works to the eastern site access before occupation. Materials and landscaping are controlled, and permitted development rights have been removed across the site. A further detached barn is excluded from the sale. Two detached barns and approximately five additional acres may be available by separate negotiation. The property is approached by a private track off Sands Road at Hunmanby Gap, between Filey and Scarborough, with coastal views. Offered for sale by private treaty through Hunters, the opportunity is subject to review of the planning documents and associated conditions.

60out of 100
Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: LOW

Moor Farm is a substantial coastal farmstead project, with seven barns consented for conversion alongside two existing farmhouses. The standing brick buildings, courtyard setting and sea views give the scheme a distinctive canvas, while the asking price is a strong acquisition point: £1.1m is £129/sq ft, well below the local £245/sq ft average. The consent is subject to conditions, so their status and requirements need checking; the finished interiors shown appear illustrative, not evidence of completed work. Limited photo coverage makes the renovation estimate further provisional.

This is a full-scale redevelopment rather than a cosmetic project: the barns are described as requiring full renovation and the farmhouses as unmodernised. The score is tempered by limited renovation-economics data, so the attractive price per square foot is not a complete measure of the project’s overall economics.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the traditional brick and pantile barns into seven individual homes under the granted consent, subject to verifying the permission and its conditions.
  • Refurbish the two existing farmhouses as part of a nine-dwelling farmstead scheme, with the courtyard buildings and coastal outlook giving the project a distinctive identity.
  • Acquire a substantial coastal site at £129/sq ft against a local average of £245/sq ft.

Key risks

  • The barns require full renovation and the farmhouses refurbishment, making this a major multi-building budget and programme rather than a cosmetic refresh.
  • Photographs do not establish the structural condition of the buildings; the varied barn roofs and overall fabric need detailed inspection.
  • The barn works are subject to planning conditions, including biodiversity, access, ecology and materials requirements; confirm their current status and what must be discharged before work or occupation.
