Thornlea, Front Street, Whitby, YO22 5PF

Hope & Braim are delighted to present Thornlea, a substantial Victorian villa enjoying an idyllic rural setting on the edge of Grosmont, within the North York Moors National Park and close to the North Yorkshire Moors Steam Railway, with far-reaching countryside views from the property.

This period home offers a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a project, as the property is now in need of refurbishment throughout, allowing a new owner the chance to restore and update it to their own taste while retaining its considerable character.

Two reception rooms feature fireplaces and attractive feature windows, hinting at the villa's Victorian heritage, while an open plan kitchen/diner incorporates a galley kitchen and useful pantry, offering excellent potential for further improvement.

Upstairs, three double bedrooms are served by a single bathroom, with a downstairs WC adding further practicality. Oil central heating and double-glazing feature throughout the property.

Outside, a detached garage/workshop benefits from an inspection pit, ideal for those with a mechanical or hobbyist interest, while further outbuildings offer additional storage or workshop potential.

The south-facing lawned garden provides a pleasant outlook and plenty of scope for those wishing to create their own outdoor haven, taking full advantage of the surrounding countryside views.

Set within this idyllic rural location, Thornlea offers a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful Victorian villa with genuine potential, in a setting that will appeal strongly to those seeking a peaceful moorland lifestyle within easy reach of Grosmont's popular steam railway.
