Hidden away off Church Street in the heart of the town, we
are delighted to offer to the market a gem of a home. This 17th
Century, Grade II listed stone built Two Bedroom Terraced Cottage has immense
charm and character. The 2-bedroom accommodation is arranged over three floors.
The cottage is a mere 10 metres away (walking down New Way Ghaut yard) from the
water’s edge, a small beach area and the glorious views over the harbour and
sea front.
The cottage has its own, outside, walled in, private and secure patio area.
Very rare on this type of property, especially in the ‘old town’.
Notable features include gas
central heating, some secondary glazing, beamed ceilings, an open plan lounge
and kitchen area, a first-floor master bathroom and bedroom and a second floor
en-suite master bedroom. The lower
ground floor room which incorporates a laundry room and a separate storage
area, is accessed from a separate door in the walled courtyard
Many individual shops, pubs,
eateries, Tate Hill beach, Whitby Abbey and the 199 steps are all within
comfortable walking distance.
The property is currently run as
a successful holiday let with advertising on prominent sites (i.e Trip Advisor,
Whitby On-Line, Airbnb and others) but also offers the opportunity for
residential buyers as a freehold private sale or those looking for a holiday
home. The property will be sold as seen
with all equipment and furnishings etc to be included in the sale, allowing a
new buyer to potentially let out immediately.
Since the owner purchased the
cottage, gross rental income has ranged from £14,000 to almost £35,000 per
annum (annual earnings vary depending on the economic climate at the time).
The property has now taken over £17,000 of bookings this current tax year i.e from 1st April 2025 - 31st March 2026
Situated in one of the oldest
parts of the town, this is a wonderful opportunity to purchase something unique
with its own long history and historic past.
The cottage was constructed circa 1640 with the internal walls of
original stone, laid there over 400 years ago by craftsmen of the day. ‘Awd
Tut’ derives from old Yorkshire slang and means ‘Old Tom’. This was the nickname given to one of the
residents, a gentleman called Thomas Dryden, born in Whitby in 1866. He was a
fisherman and a member of the lifeboat crew in his younger days.
Rarely does a well-situated
property like this one, by the harbour, become available, so please call us now
to arrange a viewing.
