Description

This sought after penthouse apartment was one of the first to be reserved when the conversion of the Rowntree Chocolate Factory was originally announced.

Available via a contract re-assignment the property offers two allocated parking spaces and spacious high-end living accommodation that opens onto a roof terrace with city views looking towards The Minster. The development is due for completion early 2024.

The property is set on the top floor of this iconic York building and will feature a very high level of finish throughout and bright, spacious living accommodation filled with light via large windows. Accessed via secure communal spaces with either a lift or a staircase to reach the sixth floor. Once inside the impressive open plan lounge/diner has a generous amount of space and a set of French doors to reach the south facing roof terrace. Back in the living space the open plan kitchen has a range of tasteful wall and base units, an island unit and built-in appliances. The accommodation continues with a main bedroom with access to a fabulous three piece bathroom. There is then a double bedroom with a further en-suite shower room.

Outside the development will be delightful communal gardens in addition to the two allocated parking spaces. The development will also boast the advantages of a concierge team and long term a community shop and café will be introduced.

The Cocoa Works is a leasehold development. The lease length for the apartment will be 999 years from completion of the property. The service charges will be £2.66 - £3.05 per square foot, per annum. These can be paid either quarterly or annually and will be reviewed annually against the retail price index. These prices will be reviewed before completion.

The annual ground rent* will be £150 for two bedroom apartments. The ground rent will increase by the original amount every 25 years.

Due to the leasehold reform (ground rent) act 2022 we anticipate there will no longer be a ground rent charge.

The property will be connected to a mains electricity supply, with mains water and sewerage supplied by Yorkshire water. For information on the broadband types available in the area, mobile availability at the property, please either check the Ofcom website or contact the office for specific details and suppliers available.

The apartment will have electric heating and high performance double glazing throughout.

Please be aware there is a further development placed to the Wigginton Road side of the building that is also under construction.
