Mistral Court, York, YO31

A lovely two bedroom bungalow placed in an over 60’s development, set amongst communal gardens and featuring the benefits of a community room, a laundry and also a scheme manager.

Offered as 75% shared ownership within the Mistral Court, Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust community, the property is placed in a quiet, convenient setting just off Fossway. There are good links with the city centre via a nearby bus stop and easy access out towards both Monks Cross and Vangarde shopping parks. There are additional amenities nearby including local shops and King George’s field, ideal for dog walking.

The well-proportioned bungalow is entered through a hallway to the side with immediate access to a useful store which houses a central heating boiler. The main living space is a generous lounge bathed in light from a south facing window and with a gas fire. There is then a fitted kitchen with a range of wall and base units. To the rear of the bungalow is a main bedroom and also a smaller second bedroom. Finally there is a three piece shower room. The property has the additional benefits of gas central heating throughout and mostly double glazing.

Outside the bungalow there are fantastic lawned communal gardens. Shared residents parking is also placed nearby.

Offered with no forward chain there are weekly social activities for Mistral Court & Sturdee Grove residents. As mentioned, the scheme has a community room, a laundry with washing machines and dryers at no extra cost and a scheme manager. When purchasing buyers must be approved for eligibility through the Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust scheme, before an offer will be accepted.

This is a leasehold bungalow. Unlike usual leasehold properties the bungalow comes with a 60 year ‘surrender and re-grant lease’ meaning that each time the property is sold it returns back to a 60 year lease. This removes any issues around the lease term falling over time and any renewals. The latest service charge was £1728 per annum. There is no ground rent to be paid and no rental charge on the other 25% of the property.

The property is connected to a mains electricity supply, with mains water and sewerage supplied by Yorkshire Water. The broadband types available in the area are standard and ultrafast. Mobile availability at the property is covered by all four major suppliers. Please either check the Ofcom website or contact the office for specific details and suppliers available, for both broadband and mobile. For any potential flood risk please check the government long term flood risk website.
