A Characterful Victorian Home with Harbour and Abbey Views

Set on one of Whitby’s most desirable terraces, just a short stroll from the harbour and swing bridge, No. 3 is a Victorian townhouse full of charm and character. Dating back to the 1860s, it offers generous accommodation over four floors, with light-filled rooms, high ceilings and those all-important Whitby views – including magical sunrises over the Abbey.

A House that Feels Like Home: From the moment you step inside, there’s a calm and welcoming feel. Soft tones and classic features create a sense of ease, with the house flowing naturally from room to room.

The bay-fronted lounge makes the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the view. Open plan to living room, the dining room is a cosy setting for gathering with friends and family. At the rear, the galley kitchen is thoughtfully designed, with lots of worktop space, high and low level cabinets for storage and plumbing and space for appliances, everything you need to cook, chat, and enjoy time together.

Upstairs, the first floor offers two generous double bedrooms and a family shower room. The front bedroom offers your first glimpse of the Abbey and harbour, and the large windows flood the room with light. The shower room is modern, well appointed and features a large walk-in shower.

On the second floor, another large double enjoys the same outlook towards the coast, alongside a stylish, fully tiled bathroom with free standing bath and vanity sink. A further fourth bedroom can accommodate a double bed or bunkbeds and plenty of furniture.

The top floor is home to a versatile occasional room with the potential for a 5th bedroom.

Outside: Of immense value is the dedicated (off-street) parking space. Furnish the east facing patio and enjoy morning coffee in the sun. At the back, a private courtyard gives you space to retreat with a book or a glass of wine.

The house has been a much-loved investment property, proving popular as a holiday let thanks to its space, location and character. Equally, it would make a wonderful full-time home or weekend retreat – a place to enjoy Whitby’s shops, restaurants, coastal walks and, of course, those unforgettable Abbey views.
