A wonderful opportunity to update and redesign this detached family home in a highly desirable area of York, with the university less than half a mile away

Description

This wonderful detached property in York provides an excellent opportunity for a family to really come in and make a home of their own.

Situated in Heslington, this three bedroom home boasts a tandem garage, off street parking and in total 1396 square feet of living space.

The home is fronted by private garden space, surrounded by neatly maintained shrubs. The back garden can be accessed through the conservatory, the kitchen or through the French doors leading out from the dining room.

On entry to the house there is a welcoming hallway with a useful shower room and WC. A spacious reception room sits at the end of the hallway, offering plenty of versatility.

The sitting room has the additional benefit of an elegantly made fireplace and leads to a conservatory looking on to the gardens.

The kitchen presents a good amount of cupboard space and a pantry in the corner. The positioning of the windows ensure a bright, vibrant space.

On the first floor are the three bedrooms, the principal of which sits to the back of the property looking out over the garden and comes complete with built in wardrobes and a dressing table placed under one of the windows. There is also a good size family bathroom on this floor.

The second floor offers a spacious loft room currently being used as an office but has the potential to create a fourth bedroom, subject to the necessary planning consent.

To the rear of the property is a south facing garden with patio area and mature shrubs and trees. To the front of the house is a paved driveway with off street parking leading to the garage.

This home would benefit from a program of modernisation throughout and would create a beautiful family home in York.
