Saltburn is a beautiful seaside town nestled along England’s North East coast. The picturesque resort is renowned for its Victorian heritage and tourist attraction, Saltburn Pier, which is the last remaining pier in Yorkshire.
While the town is a great spot for day trips and staycations, it also boasts incredible house prices, making it an excellent option for those seeking a new home. According to Rightmove, the average house price in Saltburn-by-the-Sea is £268,078. However properties can be found from just £90,000, which is £208,184 lower than the national house price average of £298,184.
A cosy apartment located on Amber Street has a guide price of just £90,000 on Rightmove. A guide price is the minimum amount that a homeowner wants for their property, but the final price the property is sold for can be higher or lower.
Multiple properties can be found for a similar price. However, it is not just apartments and flats that have low prices. One mid-terraced home boasting three bedrooms costs just £100,000. The house is located in the TS13 district, where the majority of properties sold are terraced properties and sold at an average price of just £104,753.
Along with its low house prices, Saltburn, North Yorkshire, is a town full of charm and things to do, including the town’s annual food festival. Every summer, Saltburn transforms into a vibrant food hub where food enthusiasts and festival-goers can savour an incredible blend of local and international dishes.
Outside of the summer fete, the town is home to various independent shops where visitors can purchase everything from clothing to home decorations, stationery and small gifts.
The quaint town has also recently undergone a £2 million transformation, which involved improving accessibility, transport links, and upgrading infrastructure.
Labour councillor Carrie Richardson, deputy leader and Cabinet member for Climate and Culture at Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council, told the Mirror that the council is “delighted” to see the positive impact the improvements have had on both tourists and local hospitality businesses.
The works involved improving local footpaths to make the town easier to explore on foot, and the restoration of its Grade II listed Albert Memorial Landmark.
Councillor Richardson said: “It’s [Saltburn’s] unique Victorian charm, which features a traditional pier, a historic water-balanced cliff tramway, boutique B&Bs, Italian gardens, a stunning coastline and a vibrant food and drink scene, makes it a truly special place to visit.”
