Summary - Trinity Road, Scarborough, North Yorkshire, YO11 YO11 2TR
5 bed 4 bath Apartment
Spacious five-bedroom home close to South Bay beach and communal gardens.
Grade II listed former church conversion, circa 1860
A singular five-bedroom apartment set within the Grade II listed former Trinity Church, a dramatic Gothic Revival conversion completed around 1860. Spread over six floors and extending to approximately 3,679 sq ft, the apartment includes use of the spire and atmospheric crypt, large communal gardens, and sits about 1,000 yards from South Bay Beach. High ceilings, stonework and arched windows give generous, light-filled rooms and a rare sense of occasion.
The layout suits a family seeking distinctive living space with separate bedrooms and multiple bathrooms, plus flexible areas that could become a home office, cinema, gym or hobby room in the crypt. Practical details are favourable: a very long lease (circa 977–999 years remaining), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Communal maintenance is charged at £175 per quarter (circa £700 per year) and buildings insurance is charged separately (around £1,200 per year). Pets are allowed by approval; holiday lettings are not permitted, but assured shorthold tenancies are.
Buyers should note important constraints that affect upkeep and future works. The building’s listed status means alterations will be restricted and can be costly; owners participate in a maintenance company that holds the freehold. The property is in a city centre area classified as very deprived with higher crime levels and a cosmopolitan, student neighbourhood character — this may mean noise and mixed local amenity quality. These factors affect suitability and running costs.
This apartment is best for buyers who value exceptional character, space and proximity to the seafront, and who are prepared for the responsibilities of listed-building ownership and communal management. For a family or someone seeking a standout home near the beach, the property offers a rare combination of scale, history and adaptable living areas.
