Compact, characterful starter home with private courtyard and secure bike store.
0.8 miles north of York city walls, convenient central location
This well‑presented Victorian terrace sits 0.8 miles north of York’s city walls, offering a compact, characterful home for a first-time buyer. High ceilings and a bay‑front lounge give period charm, while the full‑width dining room and practical galley kitchen provide everyday living space. The private rear yard is part‑decked and gravelled, with a brick store for bikes and double gates to the rear lane.
The property is tidy and ready to occupy with modern finishes in the kitchen and bathroom, gas central heating and double glazing. The bathroom includes both a bath and separate frameless shower, and built‑in storage is provided in the principal bedroom. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and local amenities, schools and bus routes are within easy reach.
Practical points to note: the home is modest in size (approximately 743 sq ft) and the plot is small, typical of inner‑city terraces. The EPC is rated D and council tax is Band B (approx. £1,680 for 2025/26). Crime levels in the immediate area are above average, so buyers should factor local safety measures into their plans.
Overall, this mid‑terraced house will suit someone seeking an affordable city‑centre starter home or a buy‑to‑let opportunity. It balances period features with contemporary fittings, offering a manageable, low‑maintenance base in a convenient York location.
