Detached house for sale
Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
The impressive Victorian building offers an appealing symmetrical façade with wooden framed sash windows arranged over three storeys. The property retains many original features including the main staircase, fireplaces, alcoves and coving and boasts eight bedrooms on the first floor and what were five servants’ bedrooms on the floor above.
The house is set back from Fulford Road behind a walled garden and turning area to the front of the house and a large garden to the side and rear, with established trees, hedging and shrubs providing a high degree of privacy.
In more recent years the building was owned by the MOD with the house serving as the officer’s mess who added a single storey extension to the rear. Planning documents state “Removal of the 1970s, low-quality additions to the site is highly beneficial and the reinstatement of lost plan form and features to Ousefield House will allow it to be returned to use as a family home in the future,”
The current vendors have arranged for the demolition to be done prior to a sale completing. There is also planning permission approved for a detached double garage.
Fulford is regarded as one of York's prime residential areas, offering a broad range of local services including supermarkets and leisure facilities and excellent local schools.
The property is well positioned for vehicular access to the A64, for travel across the region and York's mainline railway station can be easily accessed for express services to major cities including London (Kings Cross in under two hours), Edinburgh and Manchester.
NB: boundary drawings are approximate.
Please note, floor plans are:
• As approved by planning
• Proposed site plan
• As sold
The property is subject to a covenant stating it must remain as a single residential dwelling.
It is possible to view all documents relating to the house and neighbouring development on the York planning portal under reference 22/00114/FUL.
