Central, low-maintenance flat ideal for first-time buyers and commuters.
First-floor two-bedroom apartment with open-plan lounge/diner
A well-proportioned two-bedroom first-floor apartment tucked away off St. Martins Lane, minutes from York city centre and the railway station. The open-plan lounge/diner with French doors and a Juliet balcony is the social heart, paired with a fitted kitchen and breakfast bar — a practical layout for everyday living or entertaining. Both bedrooms are doubles and the bathroom offers a shower-over-bath, making the apartment ready to occupy with minimal immediate works.
The building sits around a secluded communal courtyard with seating and a water feature, offering a calm private outdoor space despite the central location. Secure communal access, double glazing throughout and modern finishes from the early 2000s give the home a low-maintenance feel. Permit parking is available locally for residents.
Important practical points: heating is electric (room heaters), which can be more costly than gas; broadband at the property is reported as very slow. The home is leasehold (approx. 103 years remaining on a 125-year lease from 2003) with an annual service charge of £2,292 and ground rent of £231 — factor these into affordability calculations. Overall, this apartment suits a first-time buyer or city-based professionals wanting central convenience and a low-upkeep home.
