About this home
Tucked away within the ever-popular Dower Court development, just off Heslington Road, this immaculately presented two-bedroom third-floor apartment is available exclusively for residents aged 55 and over and benefits from lift access. Thoughtfully updated in recent years, including a refitted kitchen, contemporary shower room and new carpets throughout, the property is presented to an excellent standard and is ready for its next owner to enjoy.
Accessed via a secure communal entrance with lift access to the third floor, the apartment opens into a generous entrance hall providing access to all principal rooms. The bright and spacious living room is positioned to the rear of the building and enjoys a large bay window with spectacular views, allowing an abundance of natural light to flood the space. Leading off the living room is the recently refitted shaker-style kitchen, offering an excellent range of wall and base units, generous worktop space and a selection of integrated appliances.
The accommodation is completed by two well-proportioned bedrooms. The primary bedroom enjoys tranquil views across The Stray and benefits from built-in wardrobes. The second bedroom offers excellent versatility and would make an ideal guest bedroom, home office or hobby room, with seasonal views towards York Minster. A stylish, recently upgraded three-piece shower room completes the accommodation.
Managed by the Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust, Dower Court offers an excellent range of resident facilities, including an on-site House Manager, a 24-hour emergency call system, a guest suite for visitors, residents' lounge, laundry facilities, beautifully maintained communal gardens and residents' parking.
Offered to the market with no onward chain and a long lease, this exceptional apartment is expected to attract strong interest. Early viewing is highly recommended.

Anti-Money Laundering Compliance - We are legally required to conduct Anti Money Laundering checks on all purchasers, sellers, and giftors. These checks become mandatory when a seller accepts a purchaser's offer on a property. Anti-Money Laundering checks are valid for 6 months from the date they are completed. If your purchase does not proceed and you make an offer on another property more than 6 months later, or if your checks are more than 6 months old when making a new offer, you will need to complete and pay for new checks. We use a partner supplier MoveButler, to carry out these checks on our behalf. They will contact you directly once your offer has been accepted (subject to contract) to complete the electronic verification process securely. There is a non-refundable charge of £30 + VAT per purchaser and per giftor for these checks.. This fee must be paid before we can issue a memorandum of sale to solicitors and is non-refundable under any circumstances. Ashtons receive a portion of this fee from MoveButler as compensation for facilitating these checks and our administrative role in the compliance process.
