Summary - Apartment 2, Cromwell House, 13 Ogleforth YO1 7JG
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Spacious two-bedroom home with Minster views and private roof terrace.
Grade II* listed apartment with historic character and high ceilings
A rare, Grade II* listed first-floor apartment set within the historic Cromwell House, moments from York Minster. The apartment occupies an unusually large 1,314 sq ft for a city-centre home, with triple recessed sash windows, high ceilings and direct views of the Minster. The open-plan kitchen/living/dining room is bright and spacious; the principal bedroom includes an en suite and doors to a private roof terrace. Allocated gated parking and secure bicycle storage are included.
This home suits buyers who value character, central convenience and generous proportions: period features have been retained alongside contemporary fittings and underfloor heating. The share of freehold and an exceptionally long lease (983 years remaining) are practical ownership advantages. EPC rating C and mains gas heating provide reasonable running costs for a period property.
Important practical points: Grade II* listing means any alterations will require listed-building consents and could restrict changes. The current service charge is around £2,000 pa and council tax is above average. The immediate area is lively and popular with students and professionals; recorded local crime levels are higher than average, so buyers seeking quiet suburban streets should note this.
In short, this is a standout city-centre apartment that combines historic fabric, impressive space and strong central amenities. It will particularly appeal to buyers wanting a distinctive York address with useful parking, private outdoor space and straightforward long-lease ownership, while prepared to work within listed-building constraints.
