ON BEHALF OF THE JOINT ADMINSTRATORS: A beautiful Grade II Listed building with planning permission for 50 apartments (28 units conversion and 22 new build) and co-working space.

Description

The property comprises a former educational building, which was most recently used as part of Yorkshire Coast College before closing in 2017. The building originally opened in 1902 as a municipal school and includes many designs and architectural features from the architect Edwin Cooper. The property has also been Scarborough High School for Boys from 1922 to 1959, the Westwood County Modern School and later became part of the College.

The property was listed in 1973 and retains a wealth of character and history. Planning was obtained in 2021 to convert the vacant building into 28 residential apartments and co-working space in the former theatre. There is also planning to erect a block of 22 new apartments to the rear of the existing building on the site of the former ceramics building.

There has been extensive preparatory works undertaken to the existing building and surrounding site to date, providing an exciting opportunity for buyers to take advantage of the works undertaken to date and complete this development.

Location

The site is ideally located in the centre of Scarborough, a popular and historic seaside town around 43 miles to the north east of York, 18 miles north of Bridlington and 19 miles south of Whitby. Scarborough has long been considered a popular tourist destination and has a number of hotels, B&Bs, Guest Houses and Airbnb's in and around the town. The town also provides a range of shops, bars, restaurants, pubs and cafes and there are beaches and tourist spots around the town.

The Property is situated around 0.4 miles from the centre of the town, just off Valley Bridge Road (A165) and around 0.2 miles from the train station.
