This house has a large back garden and quaint features, including an inglenook fireplace in the living room. It’s a shame that for £250,000 there is only a downstairs shower room to wash in. The two main bedrooms are cramped and the third is through the kitchen.

Perched on a slipway in the heart of town with the estuary below its windows, this four-bedroom flat is on the market at £465,000. An attic could become a fifth bedroom, but you get only the upper two floors of this listed building, and no garden.

A three-bedroom cottage on the market at £350,000. However, don’t be deceived by the tidy exterior; it needs the full works. It does have 22 acres and views to the sea and Scarborough castle from its lofty position, although the two staircases, each accessing a pair of bedrooms, could be a pain for young families.

Brickfields, a one-off, contemporary home combines luxury with eco-friendliness. The six-bedroom, 8,000 sq ft property includes an expanse of reception rooms interactive with outside space, swimming pool, cinema, gym and landscaped gardens but uses sustainable features such as a ground-source heat pump, water recycling and solar panels to keep energy costs at under £1,000 a year. All yours for £5.5m.
