A compact, newly renovated two-bedroom cottage tucked just off Skinner Street, within easy walking distance of Whitby’s shops, beach and promenade. The property blends Victorian character—brick frontage and fireplace recesses—with modern finishes, double glazing and mains gas central heating, making it ready to let or use as a bolt‑hole.
At about 474 sq ft the house is small and efficient: open-plan living arrangements are likely and storage has been cleverly used. The single bathroom is presented as an en‑suite to the main bedroom. Its Freehold tenure and central location support holiday‑let or short‑term rental appeal, and the area’s low recorded crime and fast broadband are further positives for visitors and tenants.
Buyers should note important practical points: the house sits within an area described as deprived with an “ageing urban communities” profile, and the building is pre‑1900 with solid brick walls that are assumed to lack wall insulation. Double glazing is present but install date is unknown. Although recently renovated, any buyer should check the extent of works and services before purchase.
This property is being sold by auction via the Modern Method of Auction. Bidders must review the Buyer Information Pack and be aware of an obligatory non‑refundable Reservation Fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) plus the pack charge. These auction costs and the small total floor area are key considerations for mortgage suitability and rental yield calculations.
