Seahorse Guesthouse in Great Yarmouth listed for auction

The Seahorse Guest House, just a mere 200 metres from Great Yarmouth's Golden Mile, is on the market with a guide price of £275,000.

It is an end terrace property on a tree-lined street that was built around 1860 as two separate houses.

It remained in residential use for nearly one hundred years before being converted into a hotel.

Previously the hotel was called the Sienna Lodge Hotel before previous owners, Sandra and Phillip Grey, renamed it Seahorse Guesthouse, a reference to a ship once sailed by Lord Nelson.

It was Mr and Mrs Grey who in 2014 invested more than £25,000 into restoring the property.

Much money was saved during the revamp of the building as Mr Grey did most of the building work himself.

There is the possibility of converting the Victorian building back to residential use, though this is subject to a successful change of use application to the Great Yarmouth Borough Council.

The auction is scheduled for Wednesday, September 11.
