High Street, Staithes (Old Town)

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Dales & Shires Estate Agents are very pleased to offer for sale this charming and characterful home, boasting the highly prized features of a garden, garage and off-street parking (potentially for 2-4 cars!). The house does now require extensive maintenance and updating, but provides very versatile 3 bedroom accommodation, plus useful loft rooms. Occupying a desirable position within Staithes' old town, just a moment's stroll along the cobbled street from the harbour, seafront, pubs and shops. Features include: timber framed windows, plentiful natural daylight, well-proportioned rooms, character features, fireplaces/stoves, thick walls, window seats and ample storage. An ideal opportunity to modernise and create a superb home to your own personal specifications. The house does have an old LPG central heating system installed, but this is not currently working, so a new system should be budgeted for. We anticipate this rare property will appeal to a variety of buyers,...

PROPERTY SUMMARY

The accommodation includes 2 reception rooms, a kitchen, downstairs cloakroom, three first floor bedrooms, bathroom and useful loft rooms. Externally there is a driveway, well-proportioned garden and large single garage. There is an electrical sub-station beyond the rear corner of the garden, which benefits from a typical right of access via the drive/garden.

LOCATION

Staithes is a quintessential East Coast fishing village, with the old town nestled in the natural valley of Staithes Beck and along the sea front/harbour. This highly desirable village is popular with residents, tourists and day-trippers, and offers a selection of amenities, including pubs, cafes, shops and restaurants. Nearby villages, and the larger towns of Whitby, Guisborough and Saltburn are within easy reach, and offer a wide variety of larger shops, supermarkets, schools, medical services and recreational facilities. The location is an ideal base for exploring the stunning East Coast, as well as the area's beautiful countryside, with walks and cycle routes throughout the region. The A171, A19 and A66, along with public transport services, allow convenient commuting and access.
