Set over two levels in the heart of York, this newly renovated duplex apartment combines generous space with iconic Minster views. At approximately 860 sq ft, the layout feels more like a two-bed flat, with a galleried bedroom, high double-height windows and a large private terrace that look over the city skyline.
Presented immaculately and sold chain-free, the property is attractive for investors and city professionals. Holiday lets are permitted, offering income potential given the central location, strong footfall and proximity to transport and hospitals. A lift-served entrance and secure communal courtyard add convenience and a degree of privacy despite the central setting.
Buyers should note the practical drawbacks: the home uses electric room heaters and has an EPC rating of D, broadband speeds are reported as very slow, and the area records very high crime statistics. Ongoing costs include a service charge of around £1,739pa and a ground rent of £600pa, with 102 years remaining on the lease.
For those seeking a ready-to-move-in city base with excellent letting potential and exceptional landmark views, this duplex offers rare scale and a strong central location—balanced by higher running costs and some local-area considerations.
