    About this property

    • A substantial period townhouse conveniently located close to York city centre, thoughtfully extended and upgraded to an exacting standard. The property seamlessly combines contemporary open-plan living with elegant period features, creating a stylish and highly versatile family home.

      The welcoming entrance hall is bright and spacious, with tiled flooring and a striking mirrored feature wall. A guest cloakroom is discreetly positioned beneath the stairs. To the front, the elegant sitting room enjoys a charming bay window, an open fireplace and useful alcove storage. Double doors lead through to the family room, which offers further discreet storage and a mirrored sliding door opening into the impressive kitchen and dining room.

      The extended kitchen and dining space is flooded with natural light from a large roof lantern. A comprehensive range of fitted cabinetry incorporates a breakfast bar, quality worktops, recessed sink, wine cooler and range cooker. There is ample room for a large dining table, while a corner log-burning stove creates a warm and inviting focal point. Bi-fold doors open directly onto the rear garden, making this an ideal space for entertaining and relaxed family living.

      A separate staircase leads to a dedicated study, providing an excellent space for home working. On the first floor, the beautiful principal bedroom features a bay window, fireplace and attractive alcove detailing, with an adjacent shower room which also serves bedroom three. Three further bedrooms are arranged over the second floor and share a well-appointed family bathroom.

      Outside, the rear garden provides a delightful series of terraces, offering an excellent setting for al fresco dining, entertaining and enjoying the garden throughout the warmer months.

    I particularly love the way this home balances its period charm with modern family living. The stunning kitchen and dining space is undoubtedly the heart of the house, with the roof lantern and bi-fold doors creating a wonderfully bright and sociable space. Combined with the flexible accommodation, beautiful original features and excellent proximity to York city centre.
