Stylish two-bedroom harbour-view apartment — ideal for holiday let or buy-to-let investors..
Harbour-facing first/upper-floor apartment with uninterrupted water views
This stylish two-bedroom apartment occupies a waterside position on Baxtergate with uninterrupted views over Whitby harbour. Finished in 2019 with contemporary interiors, the home offers an open-plan living/kitchen, two bedrooms and two bathrooms, ideal for short‑term holiday use or buy-to-let. The property is compact at 543 sq ft but well planned, bright and low maintenance.
Financial strengths include a very long lease (999 years from 2019, c.994 years remaining), a modest service charge (£780 p.a.) and low ground rent (£200 p.a.). The apartment currently operates as a holiday home and has forecasted rental income of circa £30,000, reflecting strong tourist demand in this central harbour-side location.
Buyers should be aware this is a leasehold apartment with electric heating via room heaters; heating costs may be higher than mains gas alternatives. There is no private outdoor space or allocated parking shown on the plan, and the overall footprint is small—best suited to holiday use, an investor or owner-occupier seeking low-maintenance town-centre living. The surrounding area is classified as ageing urban communities with local area deprivation, though crime is low and amenities are immediate.
