*** Investment Opportunity in Burton Fleming ***

This sale includes an end-terrace four-bedroom property in need of modernisation. The property comprises a lounge, dining room, kitchen, downstairs WC, and four double bedrooms on the first floor, along with a shower room. A standout feature of the property is the lounge, which connects to The Old Post Office—a shop front room, currently set up for commercial use, but with potential for conversion into additional residential space or continuing business.

To the rear of the properties, you'll find hardstanding parking and ample garden space, making this an ideal setting for both residential and commercial possibilities.

Situated in the heart of Burton Fleming, this property presents a rare investment opportunity for (in our opinion) the option of a four bedroom dwelling with a commercial shop, two two bedroom dwellings or one large four bedroom dwelling (meaning a conversion of the shop premises)

Located approximately 7 miles from Filey, 9 miles from Bridlington and 12 miles from Driffield, this property is within easy reach of local village amenities and offers convenient transport links to nearby towns and villages.

No properties, land or related businesses will be sold separately, but to be included in one sales transaction.

Viewing is strictly by appointment only.
