Dual-income freehold in Whitby Old Town, ideal for retail plus holiday let investors.
- Freehold mixed-use building on Whitby’s prime Church Street
- Street-level retail: ~220 sq ft with double window frontage
- Lower-ground workshop, storage and WC directly below shop
- Fully furnished two-bedroom holiday apartment above
- Private side entrance separates apartment from retail unit
- Gas central heating throughout; well maintained internally
- Very small plot and reduced headroom in top-floor bedrooms
- Area classified as deprived with higher local crime statistics
A rare freehold opportunity on Whitby’s prime Church Street: this mixed-use character building combines a street-level retail unit with lower-ground workshop/storage and a fully furnished two-bedroom holiday apartment above. The retail unit benefits from double window frontage and direct access onto the town’s busiest trading thoroughfare, making it suitable for an established business or a new retail operator. The apartment, with open-plan living, fitted kitchen and two attic bedrooms with exposed beams, is configured for short-term let use and already trades successfully as a holiday let.
The property is presented in good condition with gas central heating throughout and a compact, efficient layout across approximately 1,236 sq ft. The shop measures about 220 sq ft and includes internal stairs to useful lower-ground workshop and storage plus a WC. The apartment’s private side entrance preserves separation between commercial and residential uses, supporting dual-income potential for an owner-occupier or investor seeking immediate returns.
Important practical points: the plot is very small with limited external space, and parts of the upper floors have reduced headroom typical of converted attic accommodation. The local area records higher crime levels and is classified as deprived, which may affect long-term footfall patterns and insurance costs. Mobile signal is excellent but broadband speeds are only average. Viewing is recommended to assess operational fit for retail and short-let expectations.
