A fitted kitchen and three-piece bathroom complete the main accommodation, plus an easily accessible large attic adds storage or conversion potential (subject to consents).
Positioned centrally on York Place, the flat sits within easy walking distance of the town centre, South Bay and local amenities — making day-to-day life straightforward for first-time buyers or an investor targeting short-term or long-term lets. The property is chain-free and comes with a long lease (circa 117 years) and a modest annual service charge of around £250.
Buyers should note this is a period property with solid brick walls and no assumed insulation, so some upgrading for energy efficiency and modern comforts may be required. The local area records very high crime levels and is classed as very deprived — factors to weigh for owner-occupiers and tenants alike. Broadband speeds are average and heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators.
Overall, this is a characterful, well-located apartment offering good space and strong rental potential in a seaside town centre setting. It will suit first-time buyers looking for an affordable entry into Scarborough or investors seeking a central, lettable property, with scope to improve energy performance and finish for higher returns.
