Description
An exceptional opportunity to acquire the freehold of a characterful and versatile former bank building, ideally situated in the heart of Fore Street, Brixham’s bustling and historic retail core. This sought-after street serves as the primary pedestrianised route between the town’s residential neighbourhoods and its iconic harbourside and waterfront, making it a central hub of both commercial activity and footfall throughout the year.
Fore Street is home to a vibrant mix of independent retailers, cafés, restaurants, and local businesses, ensuring consistent visitor traffic from both locals and tourists. This property occupies a strategic position at the western end of the street, where New Road and Bolton Street—the two main access routes into town—converge, enhancing its visibility and accessibility.

Ideal for owner-occupiers, long-term lets, or holiday rental potential (subject to planning where applicable) The flat has its own separate entrance and could offer strong rental returns in this high-demand area.
