Summary - 1 - 2 ESK VALLEY GROSMONT WHITBY YO22 5BG
4 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious four-bed home with large garden and garage in the National Park.
Stone-built semi-detached cottage with strong period character
Set in the heart of the North York Moors National Park, this stone-built semi-detached cottage combines period character with generous family-sized accommodation. Formed by the merger of two former miner cottages, the house offers four bedrooms over three floors, a large dual-aspect kitchen and a spacious lounge both enjoying open field and valley views. A detached garage, driveway parking and a sizable front garden add practical outdoor space.
The property will suit families, second-home buyers or retirees seeking a peaceful rural setting and ample room to spread out. Many original cottage features remain, including exposed beams and stone elevations, giving the house strong character and a cosy, traditional atmosphere. The large plot and elevated valley views are standout assets for anyone who enjoys outdoor living and countryside scenery.
Buyers should note practical limitations: there is only one bathroom for four bedrooms; the kitchen and some internal fittings are dated and will need updating to modern standards; broadband is very slow and there is no mobile signal, which may affect those who work from home. Flood risk is assessed as medium and council tax is above average. The property may suit buyers willing to carry out moderate renovation.
Overall this is a rare countryside home with scope to modernise while retaining period charm. Its location by the Murk Esk and proximity to the Whitby-Pickering steam railway makes it a desirable rural base for walkers, families and those seeking a quieter life, provided they accept the connectivity and upgrade considerations.
