Double‑fronted Victorian home with separate apartment and large west garden in prime York location.
Views over York Knavesmire and racecourse
Set on Mount Vale with views over York Knavesmire, this double‑fronted Victorian residence offers substantial, flexible family accommodation across the main house, garden cottage/garage and a one‑bedroom apartment. Recent no‑expense‑spared refurbishments keep period character — sash windows, mosaic flooring and a handcrafted kitchen with AGA — while providing modern comforts and fast broadband.
The main house is a large five‑bed property with three reception rooms, three bathrooms, two cellars and a separate staircase to two bedrooms. The one‑bed apartment above the garage is refurbished to a high standard and can remain independent for guests or rental income, or be easily reintegrated into a single residence.
Outside, a cobbled private courtyard provides parking for several vehicles and a garage, and a large, west‑facing landscaped garden with mature shrubs and trees creates a private outdoor setting. The plot size and layout suit family living, home working and multi‑generational arrangements.
Important practical points: the house is a solid‑walled Victorian build (pre‑1900) so external or internal insulation may be required to improve thermal efficiency. Council tax is described as expensive. Overall, this is a rare, well‑appointed historic home in one of York’s most sought‑after addresses, suited to buyers seeking space, character and long‑term family potential.
