Chapel St Leonards seafront beach huts development opportunity up for auction
A 1.1-acre strip of land on the promenade in the seaside resort of Chapel St Leonards in Lincolnshire is to go under the hammer this month, with a proposal to build 67 beach huts on the site likely to be approved by East Lindsey District Council. The land has been given a guide price of £175,000.
The site, at the popular holiday destination between Skegness and Mablethorpe, will feature in SDL Property Auctions’, which is part of Eddisons, next online live-streamed auction on Thursday 31st July, along with over 230 other properties and plots of land.
SDL Property Auctions partner and auctioneer, Andrew Parker, said beach huts had seen a resurgence in popularity in recent years. “They’re no longer just nostalgic seaside icons, but sought-after leisure spaces and with almost 70 huts proposed for this site, and consent for the development likely to be given by the council, this is a fantastic opportunity to tap into growing demand for unique, experience-led coastal tourism.”
He added: “Chapel St Leonards is a classic British seaside resort that attracts thousands of holidaymakers every year. Developments like this can play a really key role in supporting the local economy and enhancing the visitor experience. As demand for UK staycations continues to grow, we expect interest from local and national developers looking to capitalise on the area’s popularity.”
