Derwent Way, York, YO31 0RJ

An impressive three bedroom end townhouse forming part of York's highly regarded Derwenthorpe development, offering beautifully presented accommodation arranged over three floors, two bathrooms, a superb principal bedroom suite with private balcony, dedicated home working space, an attractive rear garden and allocated parking. This is a particularly appealing example of the contemporary homes found within Derwenthorpe, combining distinctive architecture with a thoughtfully designed interior and excellent use of space. The accommodation is arranged across three floors and feels notably light throughout, with large windows, rooflights and glazed doors bringing natural light into virtually every part of the house. On entering the property, the entrance hall provides access to a useful ground floor cloakroom/WC before opening into the principal living accommodation. To the front is the fitted kitchen, with a good range of contemporary white units complemented by wood effect work surfaces. There is plenty of preparation and storage space together with integrated appliances, while a window provides natural light above the sink area. The kitchen connects through to a particularly generous living and dining room, which is easily large enough to accommodate both substantial dining furniture and comfortable seating. This is a wonderfully bright and sociable room, with glazed double doors and additional windows overlooking the rear garden. An understairs cupboard provides useful additional storage. The garden has been attractively landscaped to offer a mixture of seating space and established planting, with raised beds adding plenty of colour and interest. There is also a substantial timber storage shed. Direct access from the living room means the outside space works especially well as an extension of the house during the warmer months. The first floor provides two generous double bedrooms, positioned to the front and rear respectively. One of the less obvious strengths of the house is the unusually spacious landing, which provides enough room to create a dedicated study or home working area without sacrificing one of the bedrooms — a particularly useful feature for anyone working from home. The two bedrooms on this floor are served by the modern house bathroom, fitted with a bath, wash basin and WC with contemporary tiled finishes. The entire upper floor is given over principally to the main bedroom suite and gives the house a real point of difference. The principal bedroom is an excellent size, with the pitched roofline and rooflights creating a bright and characterful space. There is a walk-in wardrobe, useful additional eaves storage and a private ensuite shower room. Perhaps the standout feature is the set of glazed doors opening directly from the bedroom onto its own covered balcony. Timber-clad for a contemporary feel and overlooking the surrounding development, it provides a lovely private place to sit outside with a morning coffee or relax at the end of the day. Externally, the property also benefits from an allocated parking space. Derwenthorpe itself has become one of York's most recognisable modern residential developments, designed around sustainability, distinctive architecture and generous areas of landscaped communal open space. Its location to the east of the city places York city centre within easy reach while also providing convenient access towards the A64 and wider road network. Osbaldwick and the surrounding area provide a good selection of everyday amenities, schooling and local facilities. For buyers looking for something a little different from the standard modern three-bedroom house, 49 Derwent Way has a great deal going for it. Three genuine double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a separate home-working area, landscaped garden, allocated parking, a walk-in wardrobe and, above all, that superb top-floor bedroom with its own private balcony make this a particularly versatile and appealing home.
