A characterful former guest house arranged over five floors, featuring period charm, off-street parking and a rear courtyard in a prime central York location
This colourful and characterful former guest house is arranged over five floors and occupies a prime residential position close to the vibrant centre of York, benefiting from off-street parking and a rear courtyard garden.
Presented to a high standard, this aesthetically pleasing period property retains a wealth of attractive original features, thoughtfully complemented by modern improvements. The property offers generous and versatile accommodation ideally suited to a variety of uses.
A welcoming and colourful entrance hall leads to the principal ground floor accommodation, comprising a formal sitting room, dining room, kitchen and conservatory. In total there are twelve well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal suite and two further bedrooms at basement level, along with a useful utility and store room. A further nine guest bedrooms, all with en suite facilities, are arranged across the upper three floors.
Planning permission was granted in 2013 for a change of use to a single residential dwelling. Although this consent has now lapsed, it is understood that it could be reapplied for, subject to the necessary approvals.
Until very recently the property operated as a highly successful guest house business.

I particularly like the sense of character throughout the house, with its colourful interiors and original period features creating a wonderfully distinctive feel. Combined with the rare advantage of off-street parking so close to York’s city centre, it makes for a very special and versatile property
