Set in the peaceful village of Newholm, this stone-built two-bedroom cottage (plus spacious attic bedroom) offers an immediate sense of charm and comfort. Exposed beams, shuttered windows and a wood burning stove give character while modern fittings — a fitted kitchen, quality bathroom and uPVC double glazing — make it genuinely turnkey. The cottage backs onto open fields and sits within easy reach of Whitby and Sandsend beaches, appealing to buyers seeking countryside calm with coastal access.
The layout spans three storeys: a cosy lounge with a wood burner and open beams, a practical kitchen-diner with provision for an LPG range, a ground-floor WC, two double bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom on the first floor, and a large attic bedroom with Velux and fitted storage on the second. The property is freehold, connected to mains services, and benefits from low local crime, fast broadband and a Band B council tax.
Outside space is modest — a small forecourt and a side access/driveway with a useful outside store — so buyers wanting substantial gardens should expect limited scope. The cottage is semi-detached and typical of older Yorkshire village homes: characterful but with some constraints (narrow staircases, multi-level living and storage located in fitted wardrobes). It has been presented well but purchasers should arrange their own survey and checks on services and heating specifics (high-pressure cylinder located within a wardrobe).
This property suits a wide range of buyers: those seeking a compact permanent home, a comfortable bolt-hole on the coast, or a holiday-let close to popular Whitby. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the setting and interior quality; the cottage offers immediate liveability with potential for tailored improvements.
