A stunning and sympathetically upgraded Grade II listed Georgian townhouse situated in arguably one of the finest locations in York city centre with views out towards the River Ouse. Offered with the convenience of vacant possession and no forward chain.

This historic home, having originally been built in the 19th century has been comprehensively and sensitively refurbished to offer modern living whilst retaining much of its character and charm.

Access to the front is via a lovely gated walkway leading to the attractive frontage with carriage light. Internally, the property has retained a wealth of original period features and opens to a sitting room bathed in light with dual sliding sash windows. An inner hall provides stairs to the first floor and access to the breakfast kitchen.

The fully fitted kitchen boasts a range of modern fitted units and appliances with a garden room extension to the side and further access to a wc/cloakroom and utility cupboard housing the washing machine and dryer. Access to a charming courtyard is via French doors leading from the garden room.

The kitchen includes a full complement of appliances including an eye level oven and grill, halogen hob and dishwasher. The garden room is a wonderful additional space with vaulted glass ceiling and fitted storage. The ground floor has solid flooring throughout with underfloor heating.

On the first floor at the rear is the master bedroom with a stylish en suite shower room. The guest bedroom to the front of the property also boasts the same superb views over the park. In addition is a third bedroom looking along the handsome facades of Tower Place and a house bathroom.

In summary, this is a great opportunity to acquire an excellent example of a period home which has been meticulously maintained by the current owner.
