Consultancy appointed to market 190-home holiday property development
North Yorkshire residential property consultancy, Hendersons, has been appointed to market Raithwaite Village, a new development of luxury holiday homes near Whitby.
Already 12 properties, worth a total of £6m, have been reserved or sold since the 98-acre development was launched last month.
Raithwaite Village, which is being developed by Maritime Capital, comprises a collection of lodges, cottages and coastal villas in Sandsend.
Planning has been approved for 190 homes, which will be developed in four phases and completed over a four-year period.
The development will include a square to host cafés, shops and a bakery.
Nick Henderson, owner and managing director of Whitby-based Hendersons, said: “It is fantastic to be working alongside Maritime Capital to market these outstanding holiday homes and the uptake has been phenomenal.
“This interest has led to the sale of 12 of the cottages, villas and lodges, each with their own distinctive architectural style, which form Phase One.
“We have sold all the two and three-bedroom villas, which range from £695,000 to £800,000; all four of the £495,000 three-bedroom lodges with spectacular sea views; and five of the cottages, which range from £350,000 for a one-bedroom to £465,000 for a two-bedroom.
“The creation of this new village will provide a massive and timely boost to the local economy, creating numerous jobs not just during the construction phase, but also when the development is completed. This will be a sustainable and long-term investment in the area.”
Toby Hunter, CEO of Maritime Capital, added: “We are delighted to appoint Hendersons of Whitby to represent Raithwaite Village as Nick and his team know the local market incredibly well, and most importantly, are all very professional, efficient and friendly to deal with.
“Sandsend, and Yorkshire as a whole, attracts visitors from around the UK and with the recent rediscovery of the British ‘staycation’, we believe the opportunity for owning a second home in Raithwaite Village will be a desirable choice for many.”
The homes have been designed by Holder Mathias Architects, with interiors by design experts and interiors retailer Neptune.
