Property Description
Albert House is more than just a home—it’s a lifestyle. Whether you’re looking for a sophisticated, spacious residence to simply unwind and enjoy, or an opportunity to build upon its solid foundations to create a thriving business, this property offers endless potential. Its impeccable presentation makes it perfect not only as an elegant bed and breakfast but also for unique ventures like exclusive pop-up dining experiences or other bespoke hospitality concepts.
Step Inside
The main entrance, through a solid wood door, leads to the private living area. The hallway features high ceilings and period details, while the sitting room boasts a pale grey marble fireplace, sash windows, and polished wood floors—perfect for relaxing in style.
The hall leads to the kitchen and to the dining room, a spacious sophisticated room for hosting over twenty guests. Double doors open into the front reception room, currently used as a games room, with a period marble fireplace, this versatile room could provide a second sitting room or home office large enough to facilite meeting with clients. (Subject to any planning required.)
The seamless layout of the dining and games room makes this space ideal for a pop-up-style restaurant. Its high-end finish adds an air of exclusivity, likely to attract visiting chefs and elevate the venue’s appeal. This, in turn, enhances the experience for staying guests while expanding the business's potential.
The second entrance hall provides independent access to the guest bedrooms upstairs and connects to the rear foyer, which leads to a well-ventilated basement. The basement serves as a laundry, office, and storage area, with a staircase to the kitchen for convenience. The kitchen is a sleek, commercial-style workspace with stainless steel countertops and a Kenwood stove, perfect for serving guests. Adjacent is the two-story annex, offering both independence and seamless connection to the main house.
Step Upstairs
The property features seven bedrooms, four of which are dedicated to bed and breakfast guests, including a double in the annex. This leaves three spacious doubles for private family use. Dual staircases ensure privacy for the family, with guest bedrooms accessible from a second landing, keeping private and shared spaces separate.
The formal entrance leads to the private quarters, where the landing includes practical storage such as a linen cupboard, airing cupboard, and wardrobe near the principal bedroom. The principal suite is bright and elegant, with three large sash windows, a period cast-iron fireplace, and a luxurious en-suite featuring a clawfoot bathtub.
The second double bedroom is paired with the family bathroom, which includes a traditional four-piece suite with a freestanding clawfoot bathtub and separate shower. The third bedroom, located on the second floor, offers a spacious double with its own en-suite and decorative fireplace, making it ideal as a private retreat for a teenager.
On the guest side, the landing leads to two double bedrooms, each with an en-suite. A staircase here leads to the second-floor family room, featuring two sleeping areas and an en-suite, making it a favourite among guests.
Step Outside
To the rear of the property, accessed via Garden Street, is a gravelled parking area that fronts a courtyard-style design garden, enhanced by unique features like an original ground cold store set into the block paving. This tranquil retreat is perfect for family gatherings or entertaining guests, offering plenty of room for barbecues and relaxed al fresco dining. All of this is just a short stroll from Brigg’s historic center, where weekly markets continue to thrive, surrounded by a charming array of independent shops, restaurants, cafes, and bars.
