Spacious five‑bed Victorian townhouse with garden and lower‑ground rental potential.
Grade II listed Victorian townhouse, original period features intact
A grand Grade II listed Victorian townhouse on Bootham Terrace, offering over 4,000 sq ft of flexible family living across five floors. The house combines original period features — decorative plasterwork, sash windows, fireplaces and a carved wooden staircase — with carefully updated kitchen and bathrooms. The principal bedroom suite is particularly impressive, and tall ceilings and large bay windows provide abundant light.
The lower-ground level includes a cinema/family room, dining room, wine cellar and kitchenette with separate access, giving clear potential for a self-contained apartment or rental income. The rear garden is mature and low-maintenance with paved dining areas and lawn, while on-street permit parking and excellent public transport links make city-centre living straightforward.
Buyers should note the property’s Grade II listed status: any major alterations will require listed-building consent and may limit adaptation or extension. Parking is on-street only (permit required). The house sits in a cosmopolitan area close to student neighbourhoods, which can bring occasional noise and high footfall during term time. Overall, this is a rare central York family home with strong rental or multi-generational potential, offered freehold and vacant on completion.
