An unusual property in the form of a purpose-built meeting house, together with a three-bedroom detached bungalow, are for sale in a sought-after Scarborough location.

Local builders 'Plaxton Building Services Ltd' constructed the building, as the Quaker's fifth site in Scarborough, after relocating from York Place.

Further rooms include a library with office, another meeting room, toilets, a cleaners' store and a spacious kitchen.

The property has been well maintained.

Between the Meeting House and the car park is the three-bed bungalow occupied by the wardens, who are set to leave the property in April 2025.

This double-glazed home has a feature upvc sunroom off the kitchen, ​that has doors to the fenced garden.

The entire property in Quaker Close, Scarborough​, is offered for sale at a price of £595,000, by CPH Property Services, Scarborough, tel. 01723 352235.
