A compact Grade II listed cottage freshly renovated and positioned in a quiet courtyard off Whitby’s historic Church Street. Period details such as exposed beams, panelling and a wood-burning stove give character, while a recently upgraded kitchen and bathroom make it immediately usable for short‑term stays or a second home.
The property offers three bedrooms (two ground-floor, one attic), a good-sized lounge-diner and a small private paved patio — an attractive outside spot in a tucked-away yard. Heating is from a mains gas boiler with radiators and double glazing was installed after 2002, helping comfort and running costs.
Important practical points: the listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate refurbishment; external walls are solid brick with no assumed insulation; the overall footprint is small at about 571 sq ft. The wider neighbourhood is classified as deprived with higher local crime and a transient rental profile, factors to weigh if targeting long-term letting.
For buyers seeking a holiday let, second home or short-term rental close to beach, harbour and town amenities, this cottage is a convenient, characterful option ready to occupy. For buyers wanting major changes or insulation works, listed constraints and the property’s size will limit scope and require specialist advice.
