4 Bed House, Planning Permission, York, YO61 3BQ £650,000

A 2nd staircase rises from the first floor (with restricted headroom in places) to an impressive 22’ (6.71m) long attic room with an en-suite shower room, a wonderfully adaptable space previously used as an occasional 5th bedroom, home office and playroom. Rich in character, with exposed beams and an original Georgian window feature in the en-suite, the attic room also enjoys two double glazed Velux windows affording glorious far reaching views across the cricket ground and the Vale of York beyond.

Further notable features include gas fired central heating and traditional sash single glazing, enhancing the home’s authentic period charm.

Outside - The delightful south facing rear garden is both private and beautifully arranged, beginning with a charming stone flagged courtyard where you’ll find a traditional coal shed and a useful garden store, complete with an original stone sink, fireplace and rustic red brick base for a traditional laundry copper, all gently echoing the home’s rich heritage.

Steep stone steps off the patio descend down to approximately 200 sq ft of cellar space with a maximum head height of 6’3” (1.91m) and featuring a stone flagged floor and the original stone staircase rising to the walk-in cloakroom off the reception hall (currently blocked off). We are also advised that a covered original natural spring fed well remains within the rear garden, a fascinating reminder of the property’s late 18th century origins.

Beyond the paved seating area, the garden opens out to a lawn bordered by a raised herbaceous bed and gated access to a 22 yard (20m) long pathway with productive vegetable and soft fruit beds running alongside. At the far end, steps lead down to a brick built single garage, a designated wheelie bin area and a double width drive conveniently accessed via Back Lane.
