An imposing Grade II listed Georgian townhouse in Scarborough’s Old Town, Princess House offers generous family living across multiple floors and a rare, very large garage suitable for several cars. Period features—marble fireplaces, original doors, high ceilings and wainscot panelling—give the house character and strong restoration potential for a buyer with vision.
The house requires full renovation and is sold at auction via the Modern Method of Auction; bidders should budget for a non‑refundable reservation fee (4.5% of price, minimum £6,600) plus a buyer information pack fee. Listed status means repair and alteration works will need listed‑building permissions and may complicate refurbishment plans and timescales.
Set a short walk from the harbour, Market Hall and local shops, the property suits a family seeking space near town amenities and several schools. Practical positives include mains gas heating, double glazing, a cellar and fast broadband. Be aware the area records high crime levels and is classed as very deprived, which may affect resale and insurance.
This is a substantial project property with rare garage and garden assets; it rewards careful buyers prepared for restoration, consent processes and auction costs.
