About
Hope & Braim are delighted to present World's End Cottage, a characterful terraced cottage occupying a remarkable elevated position above Church Street in the heart of Whitby's historic east side.
Formerly the servant quarters for the adjoining Pear Tree House, the property carries with it a genuine sense of history, whilst offering well-arranged accommodation across three floors and the kind of outlook that simply cannot be replicated.
Access is gained via 39 steps rising from Church Street, a feature entirely in keeping with the cottage's hillside setting.
On the ground floor, the lounge provides a comfortable and welcoming sitting room, alongside a kitchen/diner well suited to everyday living and informal gatherings.
A downstairs bathroom serves the ground floor accommodation with practicality.
The upper floors provide two bedrooms, with the top floor room a particular highlight, featuring exposed beams that speak to the property's age and provenance, and a large dormer window that frames outstanding views across Whitby harbour and the rooftops of the old town below.
Outdoor storage is available to complement the interior accommodation, and gas central heating with double-glazing throughout ensures the cottage is comfortable and efficient year-round despite its historic character.
World's End Cottage sits within easy reach of Church Street's well-regarded pubs, independent shops and the iconic 199 steps leading to St Mary's Church and Whitby Abbey, placing the very best of this remarkable town immediately on the doorstep.
