This extended mid-20th century terraced house on Huntington Road offers practical four-bedroom accommodation across two storeys with a long rear garden and off-street parking. The home benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and solar photovoltaic panels, keeping running costs competitive. Its position provides easy access to York city centre, Monks Cross retail parks and several well-regarded schools, making it suitable for families or buy-to-let investors.
Internally the layout works well for family living: a generous lounge with French doors to the garden, a spacious dining kitchen and a ground-floor bedroom with en-suite and utility space in the rear extension. The first floor houses three further bedrooms and a shower room. Overall room sizes are modest but functional for a terraced property of this era and the plot size is a clear asset.
The property is sale-ready but shows signs of cosmetic ageing, particularly the kitchen which would benefit from modernisation to reach contemporary market standards. The area is classified as deprived with higher crime levels locally, which may influence family buyers and rental demand; buyers should factor this into offers and security considerations. Structural concerns are not highlighted, but a buyer survey is recommended before purchase.
With decent scope for uplift through relatively straightforward refurbishment—kitchen replacement, cosmetic updating and energy-efficiency tweaks—this house could suit an owner-occupier seeking value with good local links, or an investor targeting rental income. Tenure is freehold and council tax band is B, helping to keep ongoing costs low.
