Description

Ashtons Estate Agents are proud to present this exceptional three bedroom semi-detached traditional home, located in the highly sought-after area of Heworth, northeast of York city centre.
This truly special and elegant property is rich in heritage and brimming with unique character and timeless charm. It retains an abundance of original , exquisite stained-glass windows, detailed wood panelling, parquet flooring, deep skirting boards, and ornate coving, all of which come together to create a home that feels both warm and refined. What sets this home apart even further is its history: the builder who developed the surrounding area originally chose this very plot for his own residence, thoughtfully incorporating bespoke features that make it truly one-of-a-kind.

From the moment you step into the spacious entrance hall, the craftsmanship and care invested in this home are unmistakable. The stained-glass surrounds, beautiful circular window, and original flooring create a sense of occasion and elegance rarely encountered. Throughout the home, natural light floods in through generous bay windows, highlighting the intricate architectural details and creating a peaceful, welcoming atmosphere. The two main reception rooms, both generous in scale, offer versatile living and entertaining spaces while preserving the home’s refined character—enhanced by a stunning original Art Deco fireplace, and harmonious period detailing throughout, such as the deep skirting boards and coving.

The kitchen, overlooking the rear garden, retains its own charm, with space for casual dining and garden views that elevate the everyday.

To the first floor the character continues with another eye-catching stained-glass feature window on the landing and three well proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys views over the garden and features a unique period sink, an echo of the home’s original design vision. The Art Deco bathroom suite, with its bold and elegant green, mottled cream, and gold palette, is a timeless standout feature and completely unique.

Externally, the home continues to impress. To the front, a driveway offers ample parking alongside a neat lawn and mature planting. To the side is a carport, and outbuilding including a traditional outside WC. The rear garden is fully patioed with well-tended borders and a covered seating area, perfect for entertaining or unwinding in a peaceful and private setting.

This exceptional home is offered with no onward chain and presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property of such distinctive beauty, heritage, and appeal in one of York’s most desirable locations.

Early viewing is essential to fully appreciate everything this remarkable home has to offer.
