Summary - GAINFORTH HOUSE, PRIOR WATH ROAD, SCARBOROUGH, STAINTONDALE YO13 0AZ
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Characterful two-bed rural home with garage and garden, chain free.
Stone-built semi-detached barn conversion with exposed beams and bay windows
A charming stone-built barn conversion set in the quiet hamlet of Staintondale, with open views across the North York Moors. The house offers character features — exposed beams, bay windows and two reception rooms — combined with a country-style kitchen, private garden and single garage. Sold with no onward chain, it works well as a permanent rural home or a low-maintenance holiday base.
Practical strengths include a private garden, garage parking accessed via a shared drive, and straightforward two-bedroom accommodation arranged over two floors. The plot is a decent size for the area and the setting is peaceful, with fast broadband availability and excellent mobile signal for remote working or staying connected while enjoying countryside life.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the property is awaiting an EPC, runs on oil-fired heating, and will likely benefit from some modernisation in parts. Internal space is modest (c.800 sq ft) so storage and layout suit a couple or small family rather than those needing large open-plan living. Council Tax Band C and freehold tenure are confirmed.
Viewings are recommended to appreciate the rural outlook and the cottage character. For those seeking a countryside retreat near Scarborough and Whitby, this semi-detached barn conversion provides immediate occupancy with scope to update for longer-term comfort or holiday-let styling.
