Description

Positioned on the top floor of this well-kept development just off Skeldergate, Postern Close offers a brilliant opportunity to secure a two bedroom apartment right on the edge of York city centre, complete with river views and a tandem garage.

Offered with no onward chain and vacant possession, the property has been well cared for and well maintained by the current owners, who have clearly enjoyed their time here. While the internal presentation is now ready for a cosmetic refresh, it provides a solid and functional base with excellent potential for a buyer to make it their own.

Internally, the apartment opens into a welcoming hallway with useful storage, loft access and entry phone system. There are two double bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes and drawer furniture, and a three-piece bathroom with shower over the bath.

To the front of the property, the lounge enjoys open views towards the River Ouse, creating a light and peaceful feel, and double doors lead through to a separate fitted kitchen, which also benefits from those same outlooks and includes a range of integrated appliances.

Externally, the property benefits from resident permit parking along with the rare addition of a ground floor tandem garage with power and lighting, a genuine asset in this central location.

Postern Close enjoys a prime central setting just outside York’s historic walls, offering immediate access into the heart of the city while retaining a sense of position and privacy. Moments from Skeldergate Bridge and Clifford’s Tower, you’re perfectly placed for riverside walks, theatres, restaurants and the railway station. Bishy Road is also a short stroll away, famed for its award-winning independents including The Pig & Pastry and Robinsons Cafe.

Whether you are downsizing into the heart of the city, looking for a low maintenance base, or seeking a lock-up-and-leave investment or second home, this is a property that offers flexibility, location and long-term potential in equal measure.

Simon Says "Top floor, river views, a garage you don't have to fight the city for, and you can walk to the Minster in minutes... although it may need some cosmetic attention, the bones of the apartment and the location are doing most of the heavy lifting here...!"

About Indigo Greens, York

The Raylor Centre James Street York YO10 3DW

Simon & Emma formed Propertymark registered Indigo Greens back in 2017 with over 20 years experience in estate agency within York. Gone are the suits, the pushy & pressurised sales pitches and the mind boggling antiquated jargon!

As a team, we want to change the way people think about estate agents as we aren't all bad. By treating each person individually and considering what they may need to help with a smooth transaction and maintaining great communication, we can move through the process much easier and instead keep an exciting time as stress-free as possible.

But don't let me tell you how it makes people feel, read for yourself...

"If we could give double the stars we would! #TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork at Indigo Greens! From Simon coming to do the valuation and he and Izzy doing the viewings, to Emma making sure things ran smoothly and Izzy progressing the sale, they are a brilliant estate agent to work with! Friendly, helpful, professional, their communication is second to none and their guidance through the whole process of selling our house kept things firmly on track and us sane! Can’t praise or recommend team Indigo Greens highly enough!" - Natalya - Aug 2025

"Absolutely first class service, proving that biggest isn't always the best. After a less than good experience with a larger agent with many branches, Simon and his team restored our faith in the process." - Mr L - April 2024

With our central and accessible location in Layerthorpe, York our team are flexible in order to meet you, whether at your home, the property you want to view or you want to come into the office to meet our team!

We look forward to meeting you!
