Clifton, York

Just a short walk from York’s historic city walls, and within easy reach of York train station, riverside walks along the Ouse, Clifton Ings and two renowned private schools, sits this substantial and rarely available period townhouse. Offering over 4,000 sq. ft. of versatile living space arranged over five floors, and boasting an impressive rear garden, this elegant Grade II listed home presents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking space, character and convenience in one of York’s most desirable locations.

A grand entrance hall welcome into the home, complete with original staircase rising through four further levels. The ground floor offers two formal reception rooms, both featuring ornate fireplaces and generous proportions, alongside a cloakroom and a utility room with access to the garden.

The heart of the home lies on the lower ground floor where a well appointed kitchen diner is framed by period details, including original quarry tile flooring, cabinetry, and a chimney recess that now houses an AGA. Solid oak wall and base units provide ample storage and worktop space, with a central island completing the space. A door leads through to a third reception room overlooking the garden, while a walk in pantry and internal hallway provide further storage and access to the lower garden level and beyond.

The first floor continues the grandeur with a fourth reception room featuring a magnificent fireplace, along with a spacious double bedroom and a three piece shower room.

Across the upper two floors are five further generously sized double bedrooms, accompanied by two bathrooms.

Externally, the property sits on a remarkable plot. To the front is a deep forecourt garden with original stone steps descending to the lower ground level. The rear garden is particularly impressive - private and enclosed by original brick boundaries and benefitting from established trees, lawned areas, raised flowerbeds, and both patio and hard standing areas ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining.

In summary, this is a truly special period home, combining historical charm with spacious accommodation and a remarkable garden, all in a prime central location. Properties of this caliber and scale rarely come to market, and early viewing is highly recommended.
