The Cocoa Works, Haxby Road, York, YO31

This hugely impressive three bedroom penthouse apartment occupies a unique position on top of the recently developed former Rowntree Chocolate factory, with a generous roof terrace offering stunning views across the city and beyond. There is the additional benefit of TWO allocated parking spaces.


The large outside area is accompanied by a spacious open plan living area, a contemporary bathroom and an additional en-suite.

The substantial development sits on Haxby Road and offers easy access into the city centre and additional amenities nearby. There is also a simple route out towards the outer ring road. The conversion of the building must be viewed to appreciate the level of finish on offer and includes high specification bathrooms and kitchen, spotlighting, electric heating, a ventilation system and high-performance double glazing throughout. There is an on-site concierge and development is continuing on a library/workspace and a potential café and shop.

The apartment is reached via a large communal hallway with either a lift or staircase leading to the sixth floor. Once inside a private hallway has immediate access to a useful utility cupboard with a free standing washer/dryer. The hallway then sweeps round and leads into the centrepiece of the home, the open plan lounge/diner and fitted kitchen. The whole room is bathed in light from large windows and two sets of French doors which open onto the fabulous terrace. The large outside space has uninterrupted 180 degree views over the city centre to the south, then also the west and the north of the city. Back inside the fitted kitchen has a range of tasteful wall and base units and built-in appliances which include an oven, hob, fridge, freezer, dishwasher and microwave. There is ample space for a dining table and the lounge area also has a further window giving an excellent view towards The Minster. The accommodation continues with a main bedroom which features a built-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms, one of which offers a further built-in wardrobe. The apartment is then completed with a three piece bathroom with a shower over the bath.
