- Central Whitby location; short walk to harbour and shops

This two-bedroom leasehold apartment sits in a central Whitby location on Church Street, offering compact coastal living within easy walking distance of the town centre, shops and harbour amenities. The building’s Georgian-style facade and double-glazed windows give character while the layout provides an open-plan living area and two double bedrooms suited to a small household or rental use.
Practicalities are straightforward: the property is average-sized at about 732 sq ft, no flooding risk, and benefits from mains gas and double glazing. In this part of town you’re close to cafés, restaurants and transport links, with primary schools rated Good nearby; the seafront and harbour are within a short walk, enhancing its appeal for short-stay holiday lets or local tenants.
Buyers should note material drawbacks clearly. The flat is leasehold with 79 years remaining—below the level many mortgage lenders prefer—and this could make mortgage finance difficult or more costly. The wider area shows higher crime and local deprivation, and the apartment is in a transitional neighbourhood with constrained renter demand. Heating relies on room heaters and mains gas rather than modern central heating, which may require upgrading.
This property suits an investor able to manage leasehold and local market factors, or a buyer seeking an affordable seaside base who can accept renovation and financing challenges. It offers characterful, central coastal living but comes with clear financial and maintenance considerations to factor into any offer.
