Horner Street, York, YO30 6EA

A beautifully improved three-bedroom mid-terrace home situated on the popular Horner Street in York, offering far more space and versatility than its traditional exterior might initially suggest. The current owners have carried out significant improvements to the property, creating a warm, practical and surprisingly spacious home, while retaining much of the character you would expect from a property of this age.

One of the real highlights is the reconfigured ground floor, where the lounge has been opened up to create a much more sociable open-plan living and dining space. The result is a generous room that works equally well for relaxing, entertaining or family life, with plenty of natural light and a pleasant outlook through the property.

To the rear is a modern kitchen, providing a smart and functional space with contemporary fittings, while the bathroom has also been updated to create a clean and modern finish.

The rear garden is another particularly strong feature of the property. Predominantly paved, it provides a surprisingly good amount of usable outdoor space and is ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply enjoying the sunshine.

However, it is the raised, lofted garden area that really sets this home apart. Accessed above the main garden, this clever additional outdoor space makes excellent use of the property’s footprint and creates a real sun trap. Surrounded by timber screening and offering a degree of privacy, it provides an additional area for seating, relaxing and enjoying the outdoors — effectively giving the property two distinct garden areas. It is an unusual and imaginative feature that makes the most of the space available and is undoubtedly one of the home’s standout features.

Upstairs are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, all offering a level of space that is not always associated with this type of period property in York. Whether required as bedrooms, a home office, guest accommodation or a combination of the three, the flexibility offered by three genuine double rooms is a major advantage.

The location is a significant selling point. Horner Street sits just off Burton Stone Lane in the Clifton area of York, placing the property within easy reach of the city centre and many of York’s key amenities. The area is particularly attractive to those wanting to enjoy everything the city has to offer without being right in the heart of the city-centre bustle.

York city centre, York Railway Station, York Hospital and York St John University are all within easy reach, making the property an excellent choice for professionals, families and those looking for convenient access to the city’s amenities and transport links.
