High Street, Belford, Northumberland, NE70

An exciting opportunity in the centre of Belford village to acquire income producing property with significant add-value or conversion opportunities.
The properties comprise a bright, period three-bedroom cottage with adjoining shop and a rear detached one bedroom studio.

The Property
17-21 Main Street provides an exciting mix of income producing residential premises with an excellent add-value opportunity via the vacant commercial unit.
17 Main Street, known as Ludlow Cottage, offers bright and deceptively large accommodation over two floors. The cottage has previously operated as a successful holiday let but is now let on an AST basis, further details of which are available on request. The cottage briefly comprises a large family kitchen/diner room with a kitchen island, wall and base units, integrated appliances and plentiful storage. Directly accessed from the kitchen/diner is a rear courtyard with seating as well as access to the snug room, a formal lounge and traditional family bathroom. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms, one of which benefits from built in wardrobes and en-suite.
Adjoining to the cottage is the shop, with self contained access to Belford Main Street. The shop comprises a front retail section with a traditional shop front whilst to the rear there is a large showroom/workroom which has access to the rear yard. There is also an access from the shop into the cottage. The shop is currently vacant but provides a fantastic opportunity for a new owner to occupy, re-let or develop.
To the rear of the site is a detached stone-built studio, with a modern, pitched, tiled roof. The studio benefits from two sets of glazed doors opening directly onto the courtyard. The property comprises an open plan living suite along with a sperate small kitchen and bathroom. Just like Ludlow Cottage, it has previously been used as a holiday let but is currently occupied on an AST basis.
