3 bedroom Semi Detached House for sale, Main Street, Gristhorpe, North Yorkshire, YO14
Features and Description
Main Desscription
Steeped in history and full of character, this enchanting early-17th-century cottage is one of the oldest surviving dwellings in the village. Perfectly positioned on the beautiful and highly sought-after Main Street—the very heart and oldest part of the village—it offers a rare opportunity to own a true piece of local heritage.
Crafted from stone quarried just a short distance away, the house carries centuries of stories within its walls. Many of its original timbers were salvaged from shipwrecks along the dramatic Gristhorpe coast, giving the home a unique maritime connection. Enhancing its charm further, the cottage is adorned throughout with solid English oak, all lovingly handcrafted by a local oaksmith. From the bespoke doors and window cills to the built-in dining area and the striking fireplace, every detail reflects the artistry and care poured into this exceptional home.
Once built to shelter cattle for the neighbouring farm, the cottage now surprises with its generous proportions. Behind its historic exterior lies a deceptively spacious interior, offering a large and welcoming living room, a well-appointed kitchen, an inviting dining room, useful utility space, gym and sauna, three comfortable bedrooms, and a substantial family bathroom.
Outside, the property continues to impress. A very large garden annex and workshop provide endless possibilities, complemented by a generous garage and beautifully mature gardens. Several seating areas invite relaxation, whether by the stocked pond or beside the hot tub—perfect for unwinding in this tranquil village setting.
The location is equally appealing. Just 1.5 miles from the picturesque fishing village of Filey and 6 miles from the lively seaside resort of Scarborough, you’re ideally placed to enjoy the best of the Yorkshire coast. The historic local pub has served the community for over 400 years, while the church and popular village hall—complete with children’s play area—ensure a welcoming neighbourhood atmosphere. Practical amenities are close at hand too, with bus links only 400 metres away and a Spar within a 15-minute stroll. For those who love the outdoors, the stunning Wolds Way cliff-top trail is just a 20 minute walk away, offering sweeping views across the coastline.
Rich in heritage, lovingly crafted, and set in an idyllic location, this remarkable cottage is a rare find—ready to welcome its next custodian into its long and storied history.
