Description

As the name suggests Middleton Road is a quiet street that extends from the town centre in a Westerly direction towards the village of Middleton. It is lined by a mixture of property types, both young and old along with numerous mature trees. Swainsea House is little over a five minute walk from the town's market place and so is very convenient for its amenities although a bus stop is but a few yards down the road.

Swainsea House is believed to have been built in 1840, commissioned by a Whaling Captain sailing out of Whitby. Its general external appearance has likely to have changed little over the years, however the stables that once housed the Captain's horses have now been converted into usable annexe accommodation/office space and garaging. The property offers lots of parking to its rear and a South facing lawn to its front.

Inside, an attractive hall displaying a turned staircase, links the front and side entrances. The two main reception rooms occupying the front of the house and the the kitchen and utility/boot room to the rear. A ground floor extension joins the house to the Annexe and although currently used as a bedroom has also been an entertaining family games room and would be perfect for a snooker table.

The accommodation has a flexibility in its layout to allow the main house to use 3-4 bedrooms served by a house bathroom and the master having an en suite. However a linking door from the landing as well as a separate ground floor entrance hall offer access to a self contained two bedroom flat with accommodation spread over three floors. The annexe, although used as a work from home office, has the option of a living space with exposed roof trusses, a kitchen area and a wet room.
