Stepney House is an 18th-century farmhouse offering over 3,000 sq ft of adaptable family living on the outskirts of Scarborough. The house sits in landscaped grounds with southward views across open farmland, combining a strong sense of period character with generous, well-proportioned rooms for modern family life.
Ground and first floors contain a large dining hall, two reception rooms, a substantial open-plan living/dining kitchen with a distinctive elm island, garden room, utility and cloakroom. There is useful independent-access basement space and up to five double bedrooms across the top floors, one with an en-suite, plus a shower room and family bathroom — a layout that will suit multigenerational living or flexible home-working arrangements.
The grounds provide practical family benefits: lawn, vegetable garden, stone-flagged seating areas, ample private parking and a large stone garage/storage building. The property is offered freehold and chain free, making it straightforward to move into. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators.
Practical considerations: the house is a pre-1900 construction with sandstone/limestone walls likely without modern insulation, so buyers should expect energy-efficiency upgrades may be needed. Broadband speeds are slow in the area and council tax is described as quite expensive. The wider area records higher crime figures, which prospective purchasers should factor into their decision.
