Acomb Road, York, North Yorkshire, YO24

A desirable four-bedroom home in sought-after Holgate, with a superb open-plan kitchen and dining space, a delightful mature garden and large garage.

Description

Set within an attractive terrace of elegant Victorian houses, this handsome period property occupies an excellent position in the popular Holgate area of York.

A striking tiled hallway provides an inviting entrance and leads through to the formal sitting room, an elegant and light-filled space with a lovely bay window and beautiful feature fireplace. Alongside is a versatile family room, featuring bespoke built-in shelving and a log-burning stove which creates a warm and welcoming focal point. Equally suited as a dining area or generous home office, the room offers excellent flexibility.

To the rear, the house opens into an impressive open-plan kitchen and dining room, introducing a more contemporary feel. A roof lantern floods the space with natural light, while double doors provide a seamless connection to the garden. The kitchen is fitted with a sleek range of cabinetry complemented by granite work surfaces, integrated appliances and a range-style cooker. A separate utility room and guest cloakroom provide additional practicality, together with useful access to the rear.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom is particularly spacious and well proportioned, with a lovely bay window and private en suite shower room. A generous family bathroom serves the second bedroom, which overlooks the rear garden. Two further bedrooms occupy the second floor with one currently used as an office and are surprisingly spacious, with attractive eaves detailing adding character.

Outside, the delightful rear garden has been thoughtfully arranged to provide a choice of seating areas, including a paved terrace and raised deck. Mature planting creates a wonderfully lush and private setting, offering an inviting oasis in which to relax and entertain. A pathway leads through the garden to the garage, which benefits from power and a roller shutter door, making it ideal for secure parking or additional storage. Additional parking is available behind the garage, together with off street parking.
