Description
Staithes is a picturesque fishing village on the heritage coastline of the North York Moors National Park, around 10 miles to the north of Whitby. It is a village famous for its links to Captain James Cook, the Staithes Group of artists and more recently as the setting for children's TV's Captain Jack. It has a rich history and is popular with visitors for day trips and as a destination for holiday rentals.
The old village faces out on the North Sea, nestling where a stream cuts through steep cliffs. The village has piers to protect itself from the sea which has created a beach area within the harbour. A steep road descends into the village where the properties huddle with winding paths and alleyways.
The Shop
The ground floor of the property is a retail shop trading under the name The Emporium. Substantially refurbished and refitted by the current owners, the shop has been tanked and enjoys underfloor heating. There is good shop frontage with lots of window space and a retailing floor area of just under 300 sqft. Fittings include in-shop storage and a door opening onto a lobby with a staircase up to the apartment above.
The Residential Apartment
The apartment can be accessed either from the shop via an internal staircase or from a half flight of external stone steps to the rear of the building.
The external steps lead up to a door opening into a dining kitchen with windows to both the front and rear. The kitchen is fitted with a superb suite of oak fronted modern cabinets topped
with textured granite worktops and integrated equipment including a ceramic sink, dishwasher, washing machine, oven, microwave, hob with cooker hood, fridge and freezer. The room has a beamed ceiling, tiled floor and tiled splashbacks. The stairs to the second floor rise from here and an archway opens through to the lounge.
The lounge has a corner position with a sash windows to the front and side, each with panelled shutters. The lounge also has a beamed ceiling and panelled walls, but the focal point of the room is a cast multi-fuel stove set on a slate hearth and a built-in plinth for a television and entertainment system.
From the lounge, a door opens into a small inner hallway with a further door opening onto the staircase descending to the shop. From the inner hallway a final door opens into the bathroom.
The staircase from the kitchen rises up to a landing with a recessed storage cupboard and double doors. Doors open to the bedrooms.
The larger bedroom has a dormer window to the front with fitted wooden shutters and a rooflight window to the rear. There are a row of cupboards opening to eaves storage at the rear and a built-in wardrobe and airing cupboard, housing the hot water cylinder.
Bedroom 2 is slightly smaller but also has a glazed dormer window to the front with folding shutters. Again, there is storage to the rear with sliding doors and a built-in wardrobe.
Outside
A communal yard wraps around the property and the owners keep their bins and a storage bunker for the apartment in the communal space along with a number of pots.
