Eaton Court, York, YO24

Having been lovingly enjoyed and significantly improved by the current owners for over 20 years, this tucked-away two-bedroom semi-detached home is a really lovely example of how thoughtful extensions can transform a property into a spacious and sociable home.

Situated at the end of a cul-de-sac and tucked away in the corner, the property also benefits from off-street parking for at least two cars. The home is fully double-glazed and has gas central heating.

The front entrance hall leads into the lounge, which has a staircase rising to the first floor. From here, a door opens into the impressive open-plan kitchen and dining room, which is undoubtedly the heart of the home. Beautifully presented and designed with modern living in mind, there is plenty of room for a dining table as well as a sofa, creating a relaxed and comfortable space that is equally suited to everyday family life or entertaining friends.

The rear extension is particularly impressive, with two lantern windows flooding the room with natural light, while the large bifold doors open directly onto the landscaped rear garden. With the doors thrown open in warmer weather, the kitchen, dining area and garden become one fantastic entertaining space — perfect for gatherings where nobody wants to be stuck indoors!

The kitchen itself is well arranged and forms part of this sociable open-plan setting. The current owners have clearly made excellent use of the additional space created by the rear extension, making it a versatile room that can adapt to everything from quiet evenings at home to lively get-togethers.

The side extension provides another extremely useful addition, incorporating a practical utility area alongside a generous amount of storage. At approximately half the size of a traditional garage, there is plenty of room for the items you would normally find stored in a garage or shed, while the utility space helps keep the main living areas neat and organised.

Upstairs, the landing is again filled with natural light and includes a handy storage cupboard. Doors lead to both double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom has fitted furniture surrounding the bed, while the second double bedroom provides plenty of space for freestanding furniture.

The family bathroom is fitted with a P-shaped bath with mains shower over, alongside a wash hand basin and WC.

Outside, the rear garden has been beautifully landscaped with Indian sandstone paving, providing an attractive and practical area for relaxing, dining and entertaining. Combined with the bifold doors from the kitchen, it makes a fantastic extension of the living space.

The location is also incredibly convenient. A Co-op, several takeaways, hairdressers and beauty facilities, and a hardware store are all within walking distance. Tesco Extra and Lidl are also easily accessible, while regular bus services provide convenient access into the city centre. Energize Leisure centre is also within walking distance and offers swimming, gym climbing wall and ball courts.

Overall, this is a home that has been thoughtfully transformed over the years, with the extensions creating a particularly impressive open-plan living space. With two genuine double bedrooms, excellent entertaining space, useful storage, off-street parking and a lovely landscaped garden, this is a home that offers considerably more than its modest exterior might initially suggest.
