Set on a prominent corner of Scarcroft Road, this Victorian end-terrace combines original period character with a contemporary extension and high-spec fixtures. The house offers generous reception space with a bay-fronted living room and a long dining area, moving through to a sleek breakfast kitchen with island and bi-fold doors that open onto a south-facing paved courtyard. Three double bedrooms, each with en-suite facilities, make the layout unusually flexible for city living.
Practical city advantages include off-street parking behind double gates, a utility room and ground-floor cloakroom, mains gas central heating and double glazing. The property footprint is large internally (approx. 1,967 sq ft) but sits on a small plot with low-maintenance paved gardens — ideal for buyers wanting central living without garden upkeep. The finish is largely modern and well presented while retaining high ceilings, original staircase and period detailing.
Buyers should note this is an older, solid-brick property (pre-1900) where wall insulation is likely limited and some older construction issues can be expected. The surrounding neighbourhood is cosmopolitan, popular with students and professionals, and records higher local crime and area deprivation statistics — factors to consider for families or rental investors. Overall this house suits purchasers seeking a spacious, characterful city home close to Bishopthorpe Road and York city amenities, or investors targeting strong rental demand in this part of the city.
