Sitting on the right-hand side of the River Ouse close to the locally loved Bishopthorpe Road — a street given the nickname 'The Notting Hill of the North' and for good reason — this house brings some contemporary luxury to a highly coveted location.
The open-concept ground floor is sure to draw admiring gasps upon first glance. In this space, you'll find everything from a wood-burning stove and a simply huge modern kitchen to a cosy courtyard accessed through a glass door. Let's just say that whatever the weather, you'll have somewhere effortlessly stylish in which to relax.
The first floor doesn't disappoint, either. The bedrooms are minimalist in their design, particularly in the master which has some chic hand-crafted sliding wardrobes. This room also benefits from a view of York's City Walls out through the window.
These medieval boundaries take eight minutes to reach on foot and many of the city's most famous sights lie just beyond that — York Minster is a twenty-minute walk door-to-door. After a day of exploring the city, you will have worked up a mighty appetite, which deserves to be satiated by the fabulous array of restaurants, cafes and bars that surround the home.
