Substantial Town Centre Freehold Development Opportunity

VIEWINGS UPON REQUEST - CALL THE TEAM!

A rare opportunity to acquire a prominent three-storey mid-terrace property situated in the heart of Blyth town centre. Formerly operating as Victory Amusements, this substantial building now requires full refurbishment throughout, offering huge scope for redevelopment to a variety of uses (subject to the necessary consents).

The Property
-Extending to approximately 340 sq. m. (3,660 sq. ft.) across three floors.
-Ground floor with former amusement arcade layout, storage, kitchen, and WC facilities.
-Two upper floors with large open rooms, previously used for ancillary accommodation, now stripped back and providing a blank canvas for future conversion.
-Traditional frontage with excellent prominence onto Waterloo Road, a busy retail and commercial location.

Condition
The property is in need of significant renovation and refurbishment. Internally, many areas have been stripped back to brickwork and floors/ceilings require attention. Some original features remain, and the property benefits from generous proportions and natural light at upper levels.

Development Potential
Given its size and layout, the property offers excellent redevelopment prospects, including but not limited to:
-Mixed-use scheme with ground floor commercial unit and residential above.
-Conversion to apartments/HMO accommodation (subject to planning).
-Continued commercial use such as retail, leisure, office, or hospitality.

Location
The building occupies a prominent position on Waterloo Road, Blyth’s main shopping street, close to national and independent retailers, eateries, and community amenities. The town continues to undergo regeneration, with strong local demand for both residential and commercial space.

-Ground Floor: 134 m² (1,442 sq. ft.)
