1-3 Beaumont Street, Hexham

Notes

A four-storey Grade II listed building within Hexham town centre currently partially occupied by a range of uses. This includes a building society on the ground-floor, with the upper floors being utilised by a cafe and retail unit. There is also a large amount of storage space, much of which is vacant. There is a potential opportunity to utilise the underused space in the building for residential use. A number of proposals for change and adaptation have been made over the years as the use for the building has changed, including providing commercial, retail and business and bringing small parts of the building in to and out of residential use. Permission was granted in 2019 for conversion of the three upper floors of the listed property to provide 9 apartments (19/03875/FUL). The works include internal alterations and to create a new independent entrance at street level. The proposal is for a mix of studio, one-bed and two-bed flats (all C3 use). The existing building society and cafe will remain in situ and are not affected by the conversion. Works commenced in 2023. Development of 9 dwellings completed in 2024/25. .
