Set on a generous corner plot in the popular village of Nether Poppleton, this five-bedroom detached house suits families seeking space, privacy and good local schools. The ground floor offers four reception rooms including a bay-fronted living room and a garden room that opens to south-facing lawns — ideal for children and outdoor entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with solid oak units, granite worktops and a large Range cooker; an adjoining utility room and a second staircase add practical flexibility.
Upstairs the principal suite includes an en-suite shower, with three further double bedrooms and a versatile fifth bedroom/office accessible from the second staircase. The house bathroom is modern with a shower-over-bath. Gas central heating, filled cavity walls and double glazing (install date unknown) are already in place; the property extends to about 2,246 sq ft, offering substantial family accommodation over two storeys.
The wrap-around, south-facing garden, double garage and ample off-street parking are strong value drivers on this large plot, with scope for sympathetic enlargement or internal updating subject to planning. The setting is very low crime, well connected by fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and close to good primary and secondary schools and the A59/outer ring road for York.
Notable drawbacks: the house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and some areas will benefit from modernisation and redecoration to match current tastes. Council tax is high. The age of glazing is unspecified and further upgrading could be required over time (windows, electrics or services not guaranteed). Buyers seeking fully turn-key accommodation should budget for improvement works.
