INTRODUCTION

Gablehurst is a beautiful Edwardian house in the old part of this pretty conservation village on the outskirts of York. Offering nearly 3,000 sq feet of accommodation as well as a large garden, it is a perfect family home.

There are plenty of reception rooms, a good sized kitchen and a useful study on the ground floor and a large principal bedroom with ensuite as well as three further double bedrooms and house bathroom on the first floor. The house has plenty of character and original features such as fireplaces, double glazed sash windows, decorative coving, a church window and a very cool first floor balcony. It is typical of an Edwardian house with its elegant, light filled spaces.

The current owners, who have lived in the house for nearly 20 years, have had planning permission to convert part of the conservatory into a garden room which would extend the kitchen and transform the living space, creating a wonderful entertaining area. This has, however, lapsed but should be easily re-instated. There is plenty of scope for anyone looking for something larger or more ambitious.

The landscaped garden is south west facing and has plenty of mature trees and border to ensure its privacy as well as terraced areas to make the most of the sunshine and useful for entertaining. There is a triple garage and plenty of parking. There is access to the house via a gravelled drive from Church Lane with two additional separate access points from St Giles Road.
