Set on the top floor of a Victorian mid-terrace in the heart of Filey, this two-bedroom flat offers a compact, characterful coastal home with rare off‑street parking. The layout feels spacious for its size, with a bright living room, a contemporary kitchen/diner and two double bedrooms — a practical match for downsizers or those seeking a low‑maintenance second home close to the beach.
The property is freehold and benefits from central, walkable access to Filey’s shops, cafes and award-winning beach. Natural light, period features such as a bay window and high ceilings give the flat immediate appeal. The rear hallway provides a secondary fire-escape door and convenient access to the parking space — a notable advantage in this location.
Buyers should note the property’s energy and maintenance profile: heating is by electric storage heaters, the walls are solid brick with no known cavity insulation, and the EPC is graded D. These factors mean energy costs may be higher than modern-built homes and there is clear scope to improve efficiency — an opportunity for buyers to add value through insulation and heating upgrades. A Deed of Covenant is currently being prepared for the freehold.
This home suits someone seeking an easy-to-manage central flat with character and parking, who is prepared to carry out modest energy improvements. It also offers potential for holiday or buy-to-let use, though purchasers should consider local area indicators such as higher than average crime and very deprived area statistics when assessing long-term prospects.
