Flat for sale in York YO1, 1 Bedroom

A hidden gem: A bright & attractive apartment with great views, ample parking, and a private courtyard in the heart of York. Located in the prestigious Bishophill area, and near Bishy Road, this unique property includes two off-street parking permits, which is rare.

This one bedroom first floor apartment comprises of an entrance hallway, double bedroom, tiled bathroom, and an open-plan living room leading to a fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances. Smart storage features are recessed throughout this well-built property.

Used as a private residence by a professional couple, every room in this apartment has been renovated to a high standard (including the kitchen; shower room with new shower; heating and water heater).

The “nook” window seating creates a perfect space to relax and watch the world go by, and this coupled with an additional window floods light through the living room into the kitchen thanks to a breakfast bar-style kitchen worktop, and adds to the illumination given by under-cupboard lighting and ceiling spotlights. Plenty of worktop and fitted unit space exists, and practicality in the living room is maximised with a false wall hiding a large amount of extra storage behind the TV station.

The double bedroom features twin wardrobes and is quiet due to it being located at the back of the property, away from the road, and because the bedroom walls are not touching any adjacent property. You will get a good night’s sleep away from the noise of the city.

Invite your friends over, let them park in your courtyard, then stroll along the riverside into town for a few drinks before heading home to kick back in your open plan living room that can be used for entertaining guests.

After work, relax into “the nook” - a deep, cosy, window alcove with a glass of wine whilst watching the sun set across the riverside.

A one minute walk from your courtyard takes you to Bishophill Park and the “Golden Ball”, York’s first community-owned pub in the heart of Bishophill. Alternatively, enjoy the warming Bosky fire of the Cock and Bottle pub.

There’s a Sainsbury’s at the end of the street, Tesco Local and a 24/7 Spar shop on the bridge. The shops and restaurants of the city centre and the railway station are all within walking distance.

It is convenient for commuting to Leeds as it is a 10-minute walk to the railway station.

This property is part of a low-density development with great neighbours, low service charges, a 965 year lease, and a peppercorn ground rent of £10.
