Description

PARTICULARS OF SALE

Situated just a short stroll from Whitby town centre, harbourside, and the West Cliff, it is easy to see why Caedmon's Prospect is such a sought-after location. Built as a premium development by Kebbell Homes in around 2010 and managed to an excellent standard, Caedmon's Prospect showcases spacious and high-quality apartments which serve equally well as primary residences, second homes, or lucrative holiday lets.

Caedmon's Prospect is exceptionally well-appointed throughout, including resident-only access to the large, clean, and well-maintained communal areas. A lift service, stairs, mailboxes, secure undercroft parking with designated parking, gardens, communal bin storage and plentiful visitor parking are all included.

Apartment 15 sits at the side of Caedmon's Prospect away from the main road, and opens onto its own private patio area at a ground floor level, although technically sitting on the second level within the building which is set into a sloping plot. The scheme is just outside the town centre, but lies opposite Pannett Park and is within a short walk of most of the town's amenities. It also lies on a bus route, if you prefer to travel that way.

The spacious flat includes a large, open plan living room with lounge and dining areas plus a beautiful fitted kitchen, 2 double bedrooms, a bathroom and ensuite shower room. What makes this apartment different from most of the others in the block is that is has its own private patio area accessible directly off the living room which is sheltered and offers somewhere ideal to sit and relax with a drink or dine outdoors. The apartment is fully double-glazed and has modern electric heating.

From the communal hallway, the property can be accessed by lift or stairs. Inside the apartment's hallway is a spacious airing cupboard, which holds the high-pressure hot water system, and a cloaks cupboard providing additional storage space.

Off the hallway is the modern open plan combined living room/kitchen/diner (30'6 x 11'8 narrowing to 9'7 overall). The room has large windows and a glazed door opening out onto the patio and area devoted to seating, dining and cooking. The kitchen features high-gloss units with built-in oven, hob cooker hood, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, and dishwasher.

The spacious master bedroom (13'1 x 9'4) has a double window facing onto the patio and a recessed wardrobe and an en-suite shower room with quadrant cubicle, a tiled floor and walls, bathroom cabinet with LED light, Chrome heated towel rail, wash basin and WC with concealed cistern.

The bathroom is fitted with a modern white suite, which includes a bath with central mixer taps and hand shower, a wash basin and a WC with concealed cistern. Like the ensuite, the luxurious feeling bathroom has a tiled floor, part tiles walls, heated towel rail and fitted mirror plus extractor ventilation.

The second bedroom (13'5 x 9'2) is also a double (or a twin) room with a window looking onto the patio.

Outside

Remote control secure garage doors open to the undercroft parking area where there is an allocated parking space for the apartment close to the entrance on the right hand side. There is an internal door from the garages into the apartment block.
