Summary - 58, Monkgate YO31 7PF
4 bed 1 bath Town House
Four double bedrooms, walled garden and period charm near York city walls — chain free.
Grade II listed Georgian townhouse dating circa 1780
This Grade II listed Georgian townhouse offers four double bedrooms across four floors, close to York’s historic city walls. Its period features and high ceilings give strong family-home character, while the small walled garden provides private outdoor space in a central location.
The house is offered freehold and chain-free, presenting a clear route to purchase. It sits within walking distance of several well-regarded primary and secondary schools and a wide range of local amenities, plus fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for modern family life.
Buyers should note material constraints: listed status will restrict alterations and likely involve higher maintenance costs. The property currently has just one bathroom, evidence of student occupation, and solid brick walls that appear uninsulated. The plot is small and the area records higher crime levels — factors to consider for family buyers prioritising outdoor space and security.
For a buyer willing to work within conservation rules, this is a rare opportunity to restore a handsome Georgian townhouse into a comfortable family home close to central York. The combination of period charm, location, freehold tenure and low council tax makes it attractive; however expect refurbishment and listed-consent processes before major changes.
