Stoupe Brow Cottage, Ravenscar. YO13 0NH

Away from the beaten path Stoupe Brow Cottage sits in an elevated position along a quiet private lane and enjoys the most stunning views over the parish of Fylingthorpe to Robin Hoods Bay, the sea and the moors beyond. Extended and upgraded by the Venders in the 20 years of their ownership, to make the most of its situation, this is a property that should be viewed to be fully appreciated.

Formerly 2 separate cottages which housed the workers of the historical local alum works Stoupe Brow Cottage is currently run as a single home with 3 good sized reception rooms and up to 6 bedrooms but could easily revert to 2 cottages as there is only a single connecting door and could be used for a depended family member or perhaps turned in an lucrative holiday let (subject to change of use planning permission).
