Summary - 40a, Castle Road, SCARBOROUGH YO11 1XE
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Affordable, move-in-ready flat close to station and beaches.
Newly fitted modern kitchen and bathroom
Gas combi boiler and UPVC double glazing present
Private entrance and chain-free sale with 999-year lease
Compact 566 sq ft footprint; bedroom two is particularly small
No private garden or off-street parking visible
Town-centre location near train station and both bays
Area very deprived with very high local crime rates
Suitable for investors, holiday lets or first-time buyers
This newly renovated first-floor two-bedroom flat is an affordable town-centre purchase with immediate rental or letting potential. The interior has a modern kitchen and bathroom, gas-combi heating, and UPVC double glazing, all finished in neutral contemporary decor ready for occupation.
Practical strengths include a private entrance, a new 999-year lease to be granted on sale, and a compact 566 sq ft footprint that suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a low-entry investment. The location places shops, the train station and Scarborough’s north and south bays within easy walking distance.
Buyers should note material negatives: the wider area is classified as very deprived with very high local crime rates, which will affect lettability and resale values. There is no private garden or off-street parking shown, and one bedroom is notably compact — the flat is best suited to single occupants, couples, or short-term holiday lets rather than families needing outdoor space.
Overall, the flat is a pragmatic town-centre purchase: move-in ready and chain free, offering immediate income potential or a starter home, but priced and marketed appropriately for an inner-urban area with higher social challenges.
