Description

The Mount is one of York's most prestigious addresses, running south from the Roman city walls to the Racecourse. Lined with impressive period properties, the area enjoys a rich history and serves as the 'Royal Entrance' to the city.

Number 82 lies in the upper section of The Mount, enjoying vibrant city life on the doorstep and conveniently just half a mile from the railway station. Dating from the late 17th century, the property has been Grade II Listed to protect many of its interesting architectural features of the period. Meticulously restored and blended with more recent additions as part of a carefully conducted renovation programme, the property offers surprisingly practical accommodation whilst retaining every inch of original charm.

Unassuming on first appearance, the property is deceptively spacious; two reception rooms lead from the central hallway, centred by a traditionally styled breakfast-kitchen with an Aga and patio doors. A log burner has been installed to the living room, adding modern style and functionality for colder months, with discreet secondary glazing installed to the front-facing windows. A versatile reception room at the rear offers a peaceful area ideal for home working or hobbies, or alternatively could be utilised as a ground floor bedroom/ annexe area with an adjoining shower room and patio doors onto the garden.

The first and second floors comprise three double bedrooms, all of good proportions and showcasing attractive original fireplaces and exposed beams. There is an en suite shower room serving the principal bedroom, alongside a contemporary house bathroom with a separate shower unit and freestanding bath. The living space has been thoughtfully utilized, providing ample areas for useful cupboards and eaves for storage. Decorated in stylish neutral tones, the property is elegantly styled and beautifully presented throughout, with plenty of natural light and high ceilings.

A pretty courtyard garden lies to the rear, bordered by high walls and shrubbery providing privacy and a peaceful oasis away from the hustle and bustle of city living. There is plenty of space for al fresco entertaining and a timber storage cabinet.
Residents' permit parking is available to the front of the property.

The Mount is ideally located for enjoying all the amenities and attractions of York city centre, located just outside the Bar Walls and close to the popular 'Bishy Road' area. There are a number of excellent state and private schools nearby, and the open green spaces of The Knavesmire, Rowntree Park and Hob Moor on the doorstep. For commuting, the railway station is a 5 minute walk away and offers direct links to London in under 2 hours. The A64/A1 road network is also within easy reach.
