Summary - 72, Westgate, PICKERING YO18 8AU
6 bed 3 bath Cottage
Character cottage with two-bed annexe, garage and parking — versatile family home or income opportunity.
No onward chain — ready for quick completion
A substantial stone cottage on Westgate that combines period charm with recent, sympathetic modernisation. The main house spans three floors and provides four bedrooms, three reception rooms with log-burning stoves, and a contemporary dining kitchen. An adjoining self-contained two-bedroom apartment adds flexible living or rental potential. Offered with no onward chain, the property is ready for immediate occupation.
Practical details suit family life: mains gas central heating, uPVC double-glazed windows throughout, a useful integral garage/games room and rear parking/yard. The apartment has its own kitchen, bathroom and heating, making it well suited for holiday-let income or multi-generational occupancy. Total floor area is 2,086 sq ft, giving plenty of space for living and storage.
Be clear about the limitations: the cottage’s stone walls were built before 1900 and are assumed uninsulated, which may affect running costs despite modern heating. Ceiling heights are generally low to medium and some rooms are small, reflecting the historic layout. The property sits in a small town fringe area with average crime and pockets of local deprivation—factors to consider for long-term investment or school catchment priorities.
Overall this home will appeal to buyers seeking character, space and flexible income potential from the annexe, but who are comfortable with older-wall construction and modest internal room proportions. The chain-free status, modernised interiors and fast local broadband are practical benefits for families or investors wanting a ready-to-use property close to the North York Moors.
