Whitby Perfect for Second Home by the Sea

Tuesday 8th June 2010

Housebuilder Kebbell Homes has noticed an increasing trend at its iconic Caedmon’s Prospect development in Whitby with many visitors looking for the perfect location for a second home.

For Kebbell it’s easy to understand why, with Whitby’s quaint cobbled streets, traditional houses and some of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in the country making it a desirable location for a second home or holiday retreat by the sea.

Standing proudly on Chubb Hill in an elevated position opposite Pannett Park, Caedmon’s Prospect is a handsome building that blends classic and contemporary architectural elements and presents a striking and significant addition to this charming coastal town.

Most of the 48 luxury one- and two-bedroom apartments include a balcony or terrace with glorious views, secure parking beneath the building and a lift serving all floors. The communal areas will resemble a top notch hotel, with such touches as polished tiles in the entrance hall and luxury carpet on stairs and areas leading to the apartments. The grounds are beautifully landscaped to provide an attractive garden setting for the residents to enjoy.

Five properties have already been snapped up at Caedmon’s Prospect within the first few weeks of the development’s launch and with many enquiries coming from interested parties away from the Whitby area, its potential as the perfect getaway location is clear.

Gin Roaf, Sales and Marketing Director at Kebbell Homes, says, “People now work longer and harder than ever before, making it even more important to have a retreat in which to escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Whitby is that ideal location, a small and friendly maritime town steeped in history, offering stunning scenery, strolls along the beach and shops and museums to explore. It really is the perfect place to wind down and relax.”

She continues, “Caedmon’s Prospect promises to be a huge success with more than a hundred visitors attending our recent opening weekend, five sales already and many more enquiries being processed. From our previous success in building stylish quality apartments in Whitby we know exactly what our potential buyers appreciate. They want a design which works with plenty of storage and good use of space as well as a level of comfort which is second to none. Whether looking for a holiday retreat or a permanent home, there really is something to suit everyone here.”

Situated in the picturesque town of Whitby, with easy access to Scarborough and the bustling cities of Durham, Middlesbrough, Newcastle and York, Caedmon’s Prospect offers homebuyers luxurious living in breathtaking surroundings. Pannett Park is located immediately opposite the development providing residents and visitors to the area with a museum, art gallery and beautifully kept gardens, lawns and wooded areas. Caedmon’s Prospect is also just a short stroll into the centre of Whitby with all the local dining opportunities and buzz of a vibrant coastal community.
