Set on a quiet York street, this three-bedroom 1930s semi offers solid bones and clear potential. The house has two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen and a detached garage, plus a decent south-west facing garden that catches afternoon sun. Its location close to the University of York and local amenities makes it convenient for families, professionals and investor buyers.
The property has been well loved but requires modernisation throughout — carpets, dated bathrooms and mid‑20th century fixtures remain in place. There is one family bathroom for three bedrooms, and some buyers will want to update heating, electrics and finishes to current tastes. These works present an opportunity to add value and personalise the home.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, chain-free sale, good broadband and excellent mobile signal. The plot is a useful size for extension or landscaping (subject to consents), and the detached garage gives extra storage or workshop space. Note the local area records above-average crime; prospective buyers should factor this into their assessment and consider security improvements.
Overall, this property will suit a buyer looking for space and location to renovate rather than a move-in-ready home. It’s particularly attractive to growing families seeking good nearby schools, first-time buyers able to manage refurbishment, or investors aiming to add value in a desirable York suburb.
