Esplanade, Scarborough

Hunters Exclusive are proud to bring to the market this exceptional top floor penthouse apartment, set within a charming Grade II listed building occupying a prime position on Scarborough’s sought-after South Bay Esplanade, boasting outstanding sea and castle views.

This impressive Edwardian building was constructed in 1905 and originally used as a holiday home before being thoughtfully converted into a collection of spacious sea-view apartments. The building has also featured in the well-known television programme The Royal, adding to its historic and architectural appeal.

Upon entering the building through ornamental wrought iron gates, residents are welcomed into a charming communal courtyard and beautifully maintained gardens with a covered patio framed by Greek columns. The impressive arched entrance features five tall Edwardian stained-glass windows overlooking the private inner garden and loggia, while the property also benefits from off-street residents’ parking.

Occupying the top floor, the apartment itself offers generous and well-balanced accommodation, combining period character with modern living. The large living room is a real standout feature, enjoying far-reaching views across the sea and Scarborough Castle, making it an ideal space for both relaxing and entertaining. A modern fitted kitchen complements the home beautifully, offering contemporary style while remaining in keeping with the apartment’s character. The property comprises two spacious double bedrooms, a single bedroom, and a well-appointed bathroom featuring a roll-top bath alongside a separate shower, adding a touch of luxury and timeless elegance.
