Description

This semi-detached home, set on a generous corner plot in the desirable village of Sleights, offers promising renovation potential for buyers looking to make their mark. With three bedrooms, this property has been well-cared-for but features a dated interior that invites modernisation. The home boasts essential upgrades such as gas central heating and double-glazed windows, providing a solid foundation for further improvements. The ground floor includes a cozy lounge with a fireplace and bright south-facing window, along with an adjoining kitchen and separate dining room that opens onto an outdoor patio—ideal for family gatherings. There's also an unrefined utility room, storage area, and outdoor WC that suggest additional possibilities for enhancing the layout and functionality of the space. Upstairs, you'll find three comfortably-sized bedrooms alongside a family bathroom that accommodates everyday needs. The expansive walled garden is one of the standout features of this property, offering privacy and ample room for outdoor activities or potential landscaping projects. Sleights provides a vibrant community atmosphere with reputable schools and local amenities while being conveniently close to Whitby's town centre and its beautiful coastline. This property presents an excellent opportunity for families or investors keen on unlocking its full potential through thoughtful renovations.
