Description

An opportunity to acquire a substantial portfolio of 14 vacant residential properties with potential, located in Bridlington and Scarborough within the East Riding and North Yorkshire.

LOCATION

Located on the East Riding and North Yorkshire coastlines, Bridlington and Scarborough are two established seaside towns offering a mix of traditional character and ongoing regeneration. Both have well-developed tourism economies and are increasingly recognised for their suitability for residential and hospitality investment.

BRIDLINGTON

Bridlington is known for its expansive beaches, working harbour and strong visitor base, attracting millions of tourists each year to its seafront and events. The town also holds the distinction of being Europe's largest lobster port, landing more than 300 tonnes annually, and supports a steady local economy built around fishing, tourism and light industry.

SCARBOROUGH

Scarborough serves as the region's principal coastal centre and remains one of the UK's oldest and most visited seaside resorts. The town benefits from a diverse local economy spanning education, healthcare, and tourism, hosting major attractions such as the Scarborough Open Air Theatre, Spa Complex and an active year-round cultural programme. Footfall across its town centre and seafront continues to show growth, reflecting a resilient and active local economy.

Together, these towns form a key part of the regional coastline, offering a balance of tourism, affordability and community stability. Both conurbations are supported by established infrastructure, reliable public transport, and a growing mix of independent retail, hospitality and service-sector operators.

CONNECTIVITY

Bridlington and Scarborough both benefit from direct rail links to Hull, York and Leeds, connecting to London King's Cross in under three hours. The A165 coastal route provides strong road access between the two towns and onwards to Hull, Beverley and York. Humberside and Leeds Bradford Airports offer nearby domestic and international services, supporting both resident and visitor travel.

INVESTMENT CONTEXT

Demand for accommodation across both towns remains consistent, supported by the popularity of the domestic tourism market, which has seen sustained growth in recent years. The combination of visitor demand and a need for high-quality local housing supports a range of potential uses for the properties, including conversion to apartments or HMOs, or continuation of existing guesthouse and B&B operations. The housing stock, typically Victorian and early 20th century terraced and semi-detached properties, lends itself to reconfiguration and modernisation for flexible residential or serviced accommodation use.

Ongoing regeneration programmes, steady population growth and established visitor economies position Bridlington and Scarborough as two of the most stable and proven locations on the Yorkshire Coast for residential and leisure investment.
