Stockton Lane, York

Superb family house with a fabulous kitchen/dining/living room and a long garden, located in a favoured residential address on the north side of York.

No. 37 is a handsome semi-detached house constructed in the 1920s. It has, in recent years, been sensitively remodelled and extended to create a family home of more than 2000 sq ft. At its heart is an impressive open plan kitchen/dining/living room which extends some 20 ft x 31 ft and has six bi-fold doors that open directly onto the lengthy rear garden. The house is set back from leafy Stockton Lane behind a generous driveway with a Pod Point EV charger and offers ideal family space at the rear. Stockton Lane lies in a sought-after residential district of York with local amenities and within walking/cycling distance of the city centre.

Outside - The front boundary wall, like many of the Stockton Lane properties, was constructed using the gritstone of York Prison following its demolition in the 1930s. Brick pillars stand at the head of the gravel driveway which provides parking for up to four cars at the front of the house. The deep front garden is bounded by timber fencing on two sides and includes a section of lawn with mature shrubs and a garden gate giving access to the side return. The rear garden extends some 150 ft and is also enclosed by fenced boundaries. It is sub-divided into three distinct areas: at the top of the garden is a paved terrace abutting the house sheltered by a low wall and overlooking a lawn shaped by herbaceous borders; a pergola with pathway leads to a further paved area and stretch of lawn enjoying south facing sunshine and sheltered by trellis and a sweet chestnut tree; at the farthest end lies the informal family garden with two storage sheds and a lawned area ideal for family sport. From here, leafy garden views can be enjoyed over the neighbouring private lake teeming with wildlife.

The Vangarde Shopping Park with its flagship Marks & Spencer store and Monks Cross are just over a mile away and the Hopgrove roundabout, immediately beyond on the outer ring road, gives rapid access to the A64 serving Leeds and the national motorway network.
