Grade II Vacant Former Public House On Morecambe Sea Front
The Queens Hotel, 273–274 Marine Road Central, presents a significant seafront redevelopment and investment opportunity in one of Morecambe’s most high-profile locations. Set directly on the promenade with uninterrupted views across the bay, the property occupies a substantial footprint and offers exceptional scope for investors, developers or operators looking to capitalise on the town’s rapidly evolving landscape.
Its prominent position, generous internal layout and strong frontage make it suitable for a wide variety of future uses with relevant permissions.
The building lends itself particularly well to full redevelopment or a comprehensive repositioning scheme. Its scale and configuration mean it could be transformed into a modern hotel operation, an apart-hotel concept, high-quality residential accommodation or a mixed-use development, all subject to the necessary planning consents.
The current owner has had plans drawn which are available upon request.
The property is located walking distance to the town centre, shops and sits directly opposite a public car park.
With the forthcoming Eden Project Morecambe potentially expected to significantly increase visitor numbers, demand for accommodation and commercial space in the town could be set to rise.
