Affordable entry in a sought-after part of York with extension potential.
Chain-free two-bedroom semi-detached house in Rawcliffe
This chain-free two-bedroom semi-detached house in Rawcliffe offers a practical, affordable entry into York’s popular YO30 area. The home has double glazing, gas central heating and a sensible layout: entrance hall, bright front living room, separate kitchen and two bedrooms upstairs with a three-piece bathroom. Council tax is low and the location benefits from good schools, local shops and fast broadband.
The small but useful garden is low-maintenance, bordered with mature planting, and includes a shed and greenhouse. A driveway runs down the side of the house providing off-street parking and scope to reconfigure the frontage or add an extension (subject to planning permission). The property’s 1930s build and bay-window frontage give character and straightforward renovation potential for someone wanting to personalise a home.
Size is limited at about 535 sq ft, so this will suit first-time buyers or those downsizing rather than families needing generous space. There are no reported flood risks and the area scores highly for affluence and low crime. Any extension or major alterations will require planning consent and local approvals; buyers should budget for updating and possible layout improvements to maximise space and value.
Overall, the house is a practical, low-running-cost opportunity in a well-connected part of York — ideal for a buyer willing to invest modestly to create a tailored, long-term home.
