A handsome first-floor flat occupying the whole first floor of a detached Victorian villa, this home combines generous internal space with exceptional outdoor living. At about 1,819 sq ft the accommodation offers up to three bedrooms, two reception rooms and a contemporary living/dining extension that opens via bi-fold doors onto a substantial wraparound roof terrace of more than 500 sq ft with far-reaching city views.
Practical benefits include a single garage and an off-street parking space, access to a landscaped communal garden, long leasehold security (954 years remaining) and proximity to the city centre, railway station and top local schools. Period features — high ceilings, tall sash windows, marble fireplace, cornicing and panelling — sit alongside modern fittings such as a sleek kitchen with integrated appliances and a gas-fired Aga.
Buyers should note some material facts: the property has secondary glazing and original solid brick walls (likely without modern cavity insulation), and council tax is band E (above average). The lease prohibits business use and short-term holiday lets; maintenance/service charges are split between the three flats and owners are directors of the management company. These points mean while the flat is low-risk and well-located, some owners may wish to invest in insulation or window upgrades over time.
Well suited to families or buyers seeking spacious, characterful city living with private outdoor space, this flat offers rare terrace views and practical parking in a peaceful, tree-lined conservation area a short walk from Bootham and the city centre.
