The Villa, Station Road, Robin Hoods Bay, Whitby, North Yorkshire, YO22 4RA

PARTICULARS OF SALE
The Villa stands in the upper village of Robin Hoods Bay on the heritage coastline of the National Park and is the end-point for the coast-to-coast national trail as well as being an attractive seaside village. This brings many visitors to the area and encouraged the current owner to open up 3 en-suite bedrooms as guest accommodation to supplement their income. The property feels unmistakably homely, offering guest accommodation that is welcoming rather than formal.

The house has 5 ensuite bedrooms in total plus a smaller 6th bedroom / box room on the top floor. There are 3 reception rooms on the ground floor including a lovely drawing room with bay window to the front and a small lounge for visitors. The third reception room is a dining room with a stone paved floor, an original Yorkshire Range and half glazed doors opening out into the rear courtyard.

The kitchen has been refitted with a spectacular modern range of cabinets with polished quartz worktops and splash-backs and includes a small breakfast area looking onto the rear yard.

Also on the ground floor is a laundry cupboard, with positions for a washer and dryer, and a small shelved storeroom with a window to the side.

1st Floor
The impressive period staircase rises from the hallway to a split-level landing with a WC cloakroom, then to the 3 first floor bedroom suites.

The master suite has an original fireplace, twin sashed windows to the front, plus a modern en-suite shower room.

The second bedroom also faces to the front and has an original fireplace. A door connects to a larger en-suite shower room.

The third bedroom faces to the rear and has a modern white en-suite shower room. It also has an original fireplace.

2nd Floor
The staircase rises again to the second floor, turning at a half-landing to the rear where a dormer window offers sea views over the neighbouring houses. The top floor contains two bedroom suites along with a box room that can also serve as a single bedroom.

Bed 4 - A double bedroom with a dormer window to the front and access to an eaves storage area. A connecting door leads on to a en-suite bathroom fitted with a modern suite including a bath with shower over.

Bed 5 – a twin bedroom within the sloping roof with a window to the front and compact en-suite shower room.

Box Room – a smaller bedroom with a roof light window to the rear and hatch to access the rear eaves storage void.

Outside
To the front, the property has a flowering border to the side of the block paved patio driveway, which allows parking for up to 3 cars.

A path runs down the side of the house to the landscaped, split level, rear yard which is mainly block paved to provide a spacious entertaining area as well as housing the garden room – much more than a simple summerhouse!
