A pair of Grade II listed stone-and-brick cottages in the heart of Malton, offering strong scope for refurbishment or reconfiguration. Number 82 requires comprehensive renovation and currently lacks an internal bathroom, while number 80 is more updated and habitable. Both are freehold and sit behind a shared yard with outbuildings, and the two properties were once a single dwelling — so combining them (subject to consents) is a realistic option.
The location is a key asset: central Malton, short walk to the railway station and an extensive range of shops, cafés and services. Low local crime, good mobile signal and a short commute to York add practical appeal. The houses retain period character — exposed stonework, pantile roof and chimneys — which will reward a sympathetic restoration.
This choice will suit an investor or experienced DIY buyer who can manage a listed-building project and navigate necessary consents. Expect renovation costs, limited internal ceiling heights in places, and the practical constraint of a small plot and shared yard. Broadband speeds are average and there is no flood risk. Council tax level is low, which may help short-term affordability during works.
