This ground-floor, one-bedroom flat occupies a prominent position within Pannett View, a Grade II listed Georgian townhouse overlooking Pannett Park. The apartment retains strong period character — high ceilings, ornate cornicing, panelled windows with coloured glass and a broad period fireplace — giving a sense of grandeur in a compact home. The living room easily accommodates seating and dining, and the bedroom is a generous double with built-in wardrobes and a curved bay window.
Practical advantages include a very long lease (999 years from 1989), mains gas central heating, a communal south-facing front garden and communal rear yard with bin store. Annual service charge is modest at £720 and council tax band A is relatively low, which helps running costs for a single occupant or couple. The property is close to Whitby town centre and local amenities, with excellent mobile signal and easy pedestrian access to the park and shops.
Important constraints are factual and material: the building is Grade II listed and in a conservation area, so alterations will be restricted and will require listed-building consents. The lease prohibits holiday letting and pets require permission. Some parts of the building and images indicate a need for restoration or remedial works in places; buyers should allow for possible decoration or repairs. Broadband speeds are average and the wider area has indicators of deprivation, though crime levels are reported low.
Ideal for a downsizer or buyer seeking a characterful, centrally located primary residence, this flat offers immediate period charm and long-term security through a lengthy lease. Interested purchasers should check listing-related consents and review the communal maintenance responsibilities prior to offer.
