John Street, Whitby, YO21

11 John Street offers a unique opportunity to purchase a beautiful, character filled, Victorian townhouse in the heart of Whitby. The charming property has elegant interiors and period features with everything you need to enjoy a beautiful home with all the family, 7 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 1 reception room, 1 dining room, a kitchen and outside space.
On entering the property, there is a spacious and elegant hallway, leading to a comfortable lounge/reception room and a dining room. A large bay window and a traditional fire place make the lounge the perfect room for cosy evenings. The spacious dining room features a log burner and plenty of space for all the family to get together, seating twelve or more around the table.
Along the hallway from the dining room there is a shower room and WC, which then all leads into the spacious kitchen/diner where there are fitted cabinets, oven, hob, sink and a breakfast table with seating for four, a nice area to chat with friends whilst you cook and entertain. There is plenty of storage space/utility area towards the back of the kitchen. Leading out from the kitchen you have a private courtyard that enjoys a sheltered, southerly aspect, useful for BBQs or alfresco meals.
On the first floor there is a spacious landing with a storage room/utility area, again as an option for your washing machine or dryer or even for general day-to-day items keeping them out of site. Here there is a generous period family bathroom painted in a rich cobalt blue creating a striking and inviting atmosphere against the white Victorian bath and other furniture. Also on this floor are four bedrooms, three doubles and a single, each reflecting it’s own style of decor. Being bright, airy and spacious, these bedrooms are the perfect place to sleep, sit and relax, maybe even enjoying a good book!
On the second floor there are two double bedrooms again which boast plenty of space, each reflecting individual styles of decor. The first double room features bold cobalt blue walls with soft white/grey furnishings and soft lighting making it a perfect cosy room for relaxation. The second double bedroom features soft colouring on the walls and pops of colours throughout the furnishings and decor, soft lighting and warm undertones. On the same level there is a shower room with a shower, toilet, hand basin and a heated towel radiator.
Finally, rising to the top floor of the house, there is another beautifully decorated spacious double bedroom with two large Velux Windows with natural light flooding in. These windows open into balconies, boasting stunning views over Whitby’s roof tops and the North Yorkshire Moors. The brick wall is exposed as part of this chic room, soft calming colours and furnishings make coming back from exploring town all day more inviting to relax and settle down for the evening.
Whitby’s town centre, sandy beaches and the West Cliff are only a short walk away from this ideal, centrally located property. Sandsend is a lovely walk along the beach and back, there is also Whitby Abbey to explore and much more. The property benefits from having the bus and train station within a 5-10 minute walk with connections to York, Leeds and Scarborough. At this house you will find all that Whitby has to offer with its quaint little local shops, cafes, tea rooms and of course the traditional fish and chips!
This lovely house has been decorated to a fabulous standard, all the while keeping much of the Victorian character throughout. We highly recommend viewing this character property as it should not be missed.
