Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac in sought-after Bishopthorpe, this four-bedroom detached home offers substantial family accommodation and generous gardens on all sides. The house dates from the mid-20th century and benefits from good natural light, a driveway, and an attached single garage with utility and W.C. space.
Presented in need of modernisation, the property is a clear opportunity for a buyer seeking to add value through refurbishment or reconfiguration. The kitchen and bathroom are dated, and internal updating will be required to bring the house up to modern expectations. There is also scope to extend, subject to planning consent, which could create additional living space for a growing family.
Practical aspects are straightforward: mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing installed post-2002, and freehold tenure. EPC rating D and a council tax band F should be factored into running costs. The site sits in a low-crime, affluent village environment with excellent local schools, shops, and riverside amenities, while York city centre and commuter routes are easily accessible.
Buyers should note a medium flood risk for the area and the house’s current renovation needs. For families or purchasers aiming to create a long-term home in Bishopthorpe, this property combines location, plot size and clear scope to personalise and improve to modern standards.
