Summary - 17 RUFFHAMS CLOSE WHELDRAKE YORK YO19 6TD
4 bed 1 bath House
Spacious four-bed family home with double garage and countryside views.
Double-fronted detached with four bedrooms and en-suite to principal bedroom
Set on a larger-than-average corner plot in sought-after Wheldrake, this double-fronted detached house offers bright, practical family living and open countryside views. The ground floor centres on a substantial 29' open-plan dining kitchen with high-quality fitted units and integrated appliances, flowing to a conservatory and utility room — ideal for daily family life and entertaining. A large sitting room, separate study and downstairs cloakroom add useful flexibility.
Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms include a principal room with en-suite; a family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. Outside, the property benefits from a brick double garage and driveway parking for several cars, plus generous lawned gardens to the side and rear — rare for village properties close to York.
Practical details: gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of D (potential to improve). The house was constructed c.1996–2002 and sits within Fulford schools catchment, with easy access into York city centre — a strong draw for families. Broadband and mobile signals are excellent and the area is very low crime.
Considerations: the property’s council tax is Band E and the EPC is D, so buyers should allow for running costs and potential energy-efficiency upgrades. While well presented, buyers seeking modern top-tier efficiency or additional bathrooms may wish to budget for improvements. An internal viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout and generous plot.
