Stone Cottages, 3, Whitby, YO22 5LQ

Set amongst the rolling countryside surrounding Goathland, 3 Stone End Cottages is a characterful two-bedroom stone cottage with outstanding views, a generous garden and private parking.

Offering around 1,122 sq ft, the cottage has a surprising amount of space.

The living room is full of traditional character, with painted beams, thick stone walls and deep window reveals that are just asking to become cosy window seats – perfect for sitting and taking in the rural surroundings.

The existing fireplace sits centrally between the living room and adjoining kitchen/dining room and, subject to the necessary investigation and consents, we think a double-sided ‘Jack and Jill’ fireplace could work beautifully here, creating a real focal point visible from both spaces.

Beyond is an impressive 26ft kitchen/dining room, with ample space for a large farmhouse table and glazed doors opening directly onto the garden – a fantastic room for long lunches, family gatherings and entertaining.

You will also find a useful 'box room' off the lounge that would provide the perfect work from home space or hobby room - drawing on the the views as your inspiration.

Upstairs are two comfortable double bedrooms, a house bathroom and a generous landing beneath a pitched ceiling, offering useful additional space for a reading chair or small home-working area.

Outside, the long garden and private driveway are valuable additions, but it is the setting that really steals the show.

Open fields, dry-stone walls, woodland and rolling hills create a wonderfully peaceful backdrop, with the North York Moors quite literally on the doorstep.

With Starlink internet available, this is rural living without having to completely disconnect.
