Church Street, Whitby, North Yorkshire, YO22 4DE

A semi-detached dormer bungalow, Chapel Steps Cottage was built on the site of a former Wesleyan Chapel, at the top of a long flight of stone steps off the cobbled part of Church Street in Whitby's town centre. The location is very central, handy for the amenities of the town including bars, shops and restaurants, as well as for the beach at Tate Hill. The position is set well above the busy street however and is superbly tranquil given how close it is to 'the action'.

From the paved patio at the front of the property, a part glazed door opens into a large L-shaped lounge running across the whole of the front of the house, including a square bay window with glazed double doors opening out to the front. A staircase rises to the first floor and a half-glazed door opens to the master bedroom. A further internal door opens to the kitchen diner.

The kitchen dining room is two interconnecting rooms joined by a broad archway, with a wide window and a half-glazed door opening into the rear yard. There is an extensive arrangement of oak fronted cabinets with laminated worktops and integrated equipment including an oven, a hob, concealed cooker hood, a fridge, freezer, washing machine, tumble dryer, etc.

The master bedroom suite lies on the ground floor and comprises an L shaped double bedroom with a dressing area with built in wardrobe and glazed double doors opening into the rear yard. The ensuite bathroom is generously proportioned and has a modern white suite comprising a quadrant shower cubicle, basin and WC plus a double ended bath.

1st Floor
From the lounge an L shaped staircase rises directly up into a large twin bedroom on the first floor with 2 dormer windows facing to the front and 2 further dormer windows facing to the rear. Hatches open to eaves storage voids at the front and rear and a connecting door leads into an en suite shower room.

The shower room has a WC, a basin and a step in shower cubicle, plus a window set in the gable facing to the side.

The property enjoys rooftop views over the town centre and faces west. This affords a great aspect for afternoon and evening sunshine on the paved patio at the front which is openly accessible from the lounge via the double doors. A path leads down the side of the building to the rear where there is a yard with a storage shed with power connected. There is a raised deck above the shed.
