Summary - Birch Close, Huntington, York YO31 9PR
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Ground-floor two-bed with parking and communal gardens, move-in ready.
- Two double bedrooms, practical layout for first home or rental
A well-presented two-bedroom ground-floor apartment in Birch Close, Huntington, offered with no onward chain and an allocated parking space. The layout provides an open-plan living/dining room with French windows overlooking well-kept communal gardens, a separate compact kitchen with integrated appliances, and two small double bedrooms — a practical, move-in-ready home for a first-time buyer or a straightforward buy-to-let.
Practical details are favourable: double glazing, a long lease (107 years remaining) and Council Tax Band B keep running costs predictable. The property is electrically heated (electric room heaters) and was constructed around 2007–2011, so it benefits from modern build standards and insulated cavity walls. Communal secure fob access and an intercom add everyday convenience and security.
Buyers should note a few limitations. Internal rooms are compact and storage is limited, which may mean reconfiguration or extra furniture for comfortable living. Heating is electric-only, which can be more expensive than mains gas. The property is leasehold, so buyers need to be aware of lease terms and any service charges. The immediate area records above-average crime compared with national norms — sensible security measures and local checks are recommended.
Overall this apartment suits a first-time purchaser seeking a low-hassle entry into the York market or an investor wanting a lettable two-bed close to Monks Cross amenities and good transport links. The combination of no onward chain, allocated parking and nearby schools makes it a practical, affordable option in YO31.
