Pretty forecourt garden to front and extensive gardens to rear
This magnificent Georgian house dates to 1824 and comes to the market for only the 2nd time in its 200 year history. Rightly Grade II Listed, the property has been lovingly restored by the current owners who have retained the best of its Georgian features, whilst introducing all the modern comforts, carefully steering the property from 1824 to 2024.
The accommodation is both versatile and practical with 5 bedrooms and 3 reception rooms arranged over 5 floors (including cellars). South-west facing, the property stands on an enviable plot with a pretty forecourt garden to the front and a spectacular rear garden. Both sizeable and private, the rear garden enjoys a unique countryside feel and further benefits from views across the green open spaces of Mount Parade gardens.
The Mount, runs south from the city's Roman walls towards its famous racecourse and includes some of York's finest individual period houses. The city centre and railway station are both a short walk away. It is also well located for York's excellent selection of state and private schooling.
York's mainline railway station offers regular services to major cities including Manchester, Edinburgh and London with many journeys taking less than 2 hours to Kings Cross. It is also in close proximity of York city centre and Bishopthorpe Road, which has a vibrant selection of independent shops, restaurants and café-delis.
The popular Scarcroft Primary School (Academy) is close by with further well renowned schools in the city, including The Mount, Bootham and St. Peters. The historic city of York is a hive of activity with an abundance of shopping facilities, restaurants, York racecourse and 2 theatres.
