There are also rear out buildings for storage, as well as an attached rear court, and a porch area, and exterior laundry room, to the rear of the kitchen.
The property has previously undergone extensive part renovations, such as flooring, roofing works, new digital controlled central heating system throughout. The property has recently undergone some required works and is ready for conversion for use as an HMO, private home, or recreational accommodation, elderly care accommodation etc. The works were halted due to a bereavement, and the property is now being sold by the executors.
The property has extensive potential for returns for any investor. The planners have indicated in principle that an application for the rear stables and coach house, to be developed into two residential dwellings would be supported. It is envisaged that these buildings would be developed into quality elderly assisted independent living accommodation given the proximity to the well regarded elderly care facility next door.

The rear buildings are directly connected to the extremely well regarded Solway House elderly care facility, and thus offer a great opportunity to generate income from the elderly transitional care market. This could be achieved from people and families requiring accommodations prior to their placement in the care home, or simply to offer them a more secure independent living option, with the benefit of care assistance when or if required.
This kind of accommodation carries a premium in the market, and thus would offer potentially greater returns on investment, and a more secure and lucrative position in a growing market.

The working title for the development of the properties to the rear of Cliffton House is Cliffton Mews . Allerdale District Council have agreed to the development of the rear buildings into Houses or apartments, under the guidance that the exteriors of the building should be in keeping with the requirements of the heritage zone.
Cliffton Mews Development To the rear of Cliffton House are the gardens and Mews, which comprise of outbuildings, a courtyard garden, former stables and coach house. Clifton House rear double gated courtyard entrance is from Little Camp Street to the rear.
