This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a rare mix of city-centre convenience and private outdoor space — ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a practical starter home or an investor after a city rental. The flat sits within easy walking distance of York city centre, with a designated off-street parking space and a private rear garden that is exceptional for a ground-floor city property.
Internally the layout is traditional and straightforward, providing a spacious living room, two good-sized bedrooms and a conservatory that links to the garden. The kitchen has fitted cupboards and integrated appliances; the master bedroom benefits from fitted furniture. The overall size is modest (approximately 559 sq ft), so the accommodation suits buyers wanting a compact, manageable home.
There are a few material points to note: the property shows 1980s styling in parts and will benefit from updating in areas such as fixtures, fittings and carpets. Crime levels in the immediate area are reported as high — prospective buyers should consider security measures. Tenure is listed as unknown, although 970 years are recorded on the lease; service charge (£850) and ground rent (£25) are both modest. The flat is offered chain free, allowing a quicker move for the successful buyer.
