Description

Town and Country Auctions are delighted to offer for sale by public auction this superb and unique development opportunity. An incredible Investment Opportunity for a minimum outlay. 17 Espionage is located on the cliff top with breathtaking sea views overlooking Portland Bill Lighthouse. Steeped in maritime history the building was at the centre of the MI5 Spy Ring during the cold war.
Planning has been granted to extend the property to create a stunning state of the art apartment. With build costs at circa £50,000 and a GDV of circa £180,000 this fantastic development opportunity could return a tremendous profit. Once converted climbing, mountain biking and walking enthusiasts would willing pay £1,000 per week to stay at this iconic location as an Air B&B. As there is parking conveyed with this flat for 10 or so cars this would also make a perfect shipping container site with great income potential.
Existing dimensions 5.03m x 3.25m. Includes kitchen area, studio and shower room.
Planning permission was granted in March 2023 for conversion & extension and can be viewed at https://planning.dorsetcouncil.gov.uk/

It is subject to change throughout the marketing period. Where the Guide Price is a single figure, the current Reserve will not be more than 10% above that single figure, and where a price range is given (i.e. £50,000 - £55,000), the Reserve will not exceed the upper level of the range. It is not necessarily what the auctioneer expects it will sell for.
