Throughout, the property combines a luxurious finish with a wealth of beautifully preserved period features, creating a home that is both characterful and wonderfully suited to modern family life.

Occupying a convenient position between Clifton village and York's historic city centre, reached via Bootham Bar. The property is particularly well placed for St Peter's School and Bootham School, both within easy strolling distance. The attractive Georgian approach to the city passes a range of local independent businesses including North South, a popular café, bookshops & a bakery.

York railway station is around a ten-minute walk via the footbridge, while riverside walks and cycle routes are close by.

A handsome forecourt, enclosed by traditional wrought-iron railings, provides an attractive approach to the property and leads into a welcoming entrance hall. From here, the principal reception rooms are accessed, beginning with the elegant sitting room which features a large bay window fitted with wooden shutters and a log-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting space.

The central reception room is currently arranged as a formal dining room, with glazed doors opening directly onto the rear garden. To the rear of the house is the superb kitchen & garden room, centred around a substantial island with quartz worktops and complemented by a range of integrated appliances and cabinets. The family room, positioned at the rear of the kitchen, provides a relaxed space for informal dining and everyday family life. A further set of doors opens directly onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between the kitchen, family room and outdoor space, ideal for both entertaining and day-to-day living.

The landscaped rear garden is a delightful and private feature of the property, incorporating a generous paved terrace, circular lawn and established borders, all enclosed by attractive high-walled boundaries. The mature planting and secluded setting provide an excellent outdoor environment with plenty of space for entertaining and relaxation.

The first floor continues to impress, with a spacious additional reception room enjoying dual-aspect windows. This versatile room could equally serve as a additional bedroom, depending upon the needs of the purchaser. There is also a well-appointed bedroom with en-suite facilities, together with a further bedroom benefiting from access to a separate WC.

On the second floor is the spectacular house bathroom, featuring a large walk-in shower and elegant roll-top bath, alongside a practical utility room with space for washing and drying facilities. The principal bedroom occupies the front of the house and is a particularly impressive suite, incorporating a generous dressing area and en-suite shower room. A further bedroom completes this floor.

The uppermost level provides two additional versatile rooms, both benefiting from useful eaves storage. These adaptable spaces would be ideally suited to teenagers, home working, hobbies or additional storage, further enhancing the flexibility of this substantial family home.
