Description

This semi-detached home, nestled within a scenic village, presents a remarkable opportunity for those seeking renovation potential or investment prospects. Located between the well-regarded villages of Copmanthorpe and Colton, you are conveniently positioned just under eight miles from York’s city center, combining rural charm with accessibility. Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by an unusually spacious and light-filled entrance hall that leads into the main reception area. Two generous front windows bathe the room in natural light throughout the day, while its south-facing orientation enhances its appeal as a comfortable living space. The existing integrated storage cupboard near the fireplace adds both functionality and character. There is ample room available for various seating arrangements or dining options, inviting consideration for future remodeling of the kitchen space. The kitchen comes equipped with a functional layout featuring several units that provide substantial storage and prep areas. However, it clearly offers significant renovation potential—there's even scope for extension pending necessary permissions—making it an ideal project for those looking to tailor it to their needs. Access to a private garden and additional outbuildings is also available from this area. Upstairs, you'll find three well-proportioned bedrooms that enjoy expansive views over surrounding open fields, further enhancing the sense of space and tranquility within the home. A contemporary shower room features modern fixtures including a walk-in shower, WC, and sink with handy storage provided behind a vanity cabinet. Thoughtful touches like high-quality Spanish marble effect tiles enhance its appeal while ensuring functionality. Set on a sizeable plot, there is considerable scope for expansion similar to nearby properties, which have successfully added kitchen extensions and front porches under planning approvals. The generous rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn with hedged boundaries that offer privacy, accompanied by a paved seating area ideal for outdoor relaxation. Additionally, two practical outbuildings are present; one includes an external WC for convenience. At the front of the property is another lawned area along with a driveway providing off-street parking. This home balances peaceful rural living with proximity to commuter conveniences and reflects excellent investment potential in a welcoming community environment. Originally an Airey house, it has recently undergone modernization of its external brickwork with all updates signed off by building control, setting a strong foundation for future enhancements or personal touches.
