The luxurious house bathroom comprises a four-piece suite with a freestanding bath and separate walk-in shower, complemented by an additional separate WC.

The second floor offers superb self-contained living accommodation, ideal for extended family, guests or independent living. This level includes two further double bedrooms, a contemporary three-piece shower room and an open-plan kitchen/living area.

Externally, the property continues to impress with its beautifully maintained south-facing garden, offering a variety of terraced seating areas ideal for relaxing and entertaining.

A garage and a secure gated driveway to the rear provide ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles.

Ideally situated in the heart of Acomb Village and York, the property enjoys immediate access to an excellent range of local amenities including several independent cafés, such as the renowned Bluebird Bakery which also opens as an event space in the evening, restaurants, supermarkets, bars and traditional pubs, a post office, doctors/dental and alternative health practitioners and highly regarded schools.
