Mill Lane, York, YO31 7TF

Perfect for growing families seeking space and character, this impressive period home in Heworth blends timeless charm with generous living and a long private garden. With flexible rooms arranged over three floors and many original features, this is a substantial property offering both comfort and future potential.

You enter through a traditional entrance hall with high ceilings and detailed cornicing that immediately reflect the Victorian character of the house. The living room at the front is bright and welcoming, centred around a large sash bay window, fitted with wooden shutters, that draws in natural light. Original wooden floorboards run underfoot, and the generous ceiling height creates a real sense of space. A second reception room provides a cosy yet spacious family room, complete with a feature fireplace and built in shelving. This room works well as a snug, playroom or formal sitting room depending on your needs.

To the rear, the dining room offers a warm and social setting with French doors opening directly onto the garden, making it ideal for family meals and summer gatherings. There is ample space for a large table and additional furniture. The kitchen sits just beyond and is fitted with a range of units, worktops and integrated appliances. A large window above the sink overlooks the garden, allowing plenty of daylight into the space. There is also a useful utility room and ground floor WC, adding to the practicality for busy family life.

On the first floor, the sense of space continues, following an impressive vaulted ceiling and sky light on the staircase letting in lots of natural light. The main bedroom features tall sash windows and high ceilings, creating a calm and airy retreat. A second double bedroom offers similar proportions and character. The family bathroom is particularly generous in size, fitted with a bath and separate shower, with room to update. A further third bedroom on this level works well as a children's room, study or guest room.

Stairs rise to the second floor where you will find an additional bedroom tucked into the roof space. This flexible room could serve as a teenager’s bedroom, hobby room or quiet home office, offering privacy away from the main sleeping areas.

Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight for families. It is long and private, with mature planting, established shrubs and trees creating a green and peaceful setting. There is space for children to play, for keen gardeners to grow vegetables, or simply to relax with outdoor seating. The garden links perfectly to the family focused layout of the house, providing an extension of the living space during warmer months. To the front, the property sits behind a low brick wall with wrought iron railings, adding to its period appeal and kerb presence. On street permit parking is available nearby.
