2 bed town house for sale

Old Custom House, Whitby YO22

Hope & Braim are delighted to present Old Custom House, a characterful period home occupying a truly enviable position on Whitby's historic harbourside. Immediately distinctive within the harbour townscape, the property's rendered facades finished in green set it apart from its neighbours, lending it a singular presence that reflects both its history and its setting.

Arranged over three floors with an outdoor terrace, the accommodation offers considerable scope for those seeking a project of genuine character in one of Whitby's most sought-after locations. The ground floor provides an open plan kitchen/diner and WC, whilst the first floor is given over to a lounge with fireplace, a fine room in which to make the most of the harbour outlook, together with a bathroom. The top floor houses two bedrooms and a shower suite, with the outdoor terrace offering views across the harbour and harbourside that are, in this town, quite simply among the best available from a residential address.

Gas central heating and double-glazing are fitted throughout. The property requires refurbishment and presents considerable potential for the discerning buyer prepared to invest in returning it to its former quality. Grade II listed and situated within a conservation area, any works will be subject to the appropriate consents, and prospective purchasers are advised to seek guidance accordingly.

Old Custom House represents a rare opportunity to acquire a landmark harbourside home with a genuine sense of history, character, and place. Whitby's independent shops, restaurants, and the famous 199 steps to the Abbey are all within comfortable reach.
