The Old Station House, Station Lane

*** For Sale By Auction *** LIVE ONLINE AUCTION *** Thursday 30th April 2026 *** Option 1 ***

An exciting and rare opportunity to acquire a generous plot of land in the popular village of Skelton, offered with full planning permission for the construction of two substantial four-bedroom, three-bathroom detached executive eco homes.

Situated within an established residential setting, the approved plans have been carefully designed to maximise privacy and take full advantage of desirable south-facing aspects. Each dwelling will feature two roof terraces, creating impressive outdoor spaces ideal for relaxing or entertaining.

The spacious internal layouts have been thoughtfully planned for modern family life and multi-generational living. Each home includes:

Four bedrooms
Two en-suites
A family bathroom
A separate downstairs WC
A ground floor en-suite room designed to accommodate multi-generational living, which can alternatively serve as a private home office
Large double integrated garages

The site benefits from existing gas, drainage, and water connections, remaining in place from the previous dwelling, offering a practical advantage for development.

In addition to its development potential, the plot holds notable local prestige, being the historic site of the original village train station and the prominent Station Master’s House, which stood on the site until 2018 when it was sadly lost to fire. This unique heritage adds further character and significance to an already exceptional opportunity.

Skelton is a well-connected and highly regarded village close to the North Yorkshire coastline, offering a range of local amenities, schooling, and transport links. The nearby seaside town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea provides further leisure facilities, beaches, and rail connections.

This is an outstanding opportunity for developers, investors, or self-build buyers seeking to deliver high-quality, sustainable executive homes in a desirable and historically significant location.
