Description

This semi-detached house features two spacious double bedrooms and offers considerable renovation potential, making it an appealing prospect for investors or those looking to create a personalized living space. The property is situated on a good-sized plot with off-street parking and includes multiple storage options, which enhances its functionality. Upon entering, you’ll find a hallway that connects to both the lounge and kitchen, as well as providing access to the first floor. The lounge boasts views of the rear garden and includes a traditional fireplace fitted with an electric fire. Double doors lead from the lounge to a dining room that further opens into the garden via French doors, creating opportunities for indoor-outdoor living. An arched passageway connects the dining area to the kitchen, which is equipped with wall and base units, presenting a solid foundation for a modern upgrade. There's also convenient access to an enclosed side passage. On the upper level, two double bedrooms come equipped with fitted wardrobes, along with a bathroom featuring a shower-over-bath configuration. The property benefits from gas central heating and double glazing, though some updating would significantly enhance its appeal. The exterior includes a lawned front garden and a large block-paved driveway capable of accommodating several vehicles. The southeast-facing rear garden is particularly noteworthy; it features both a patio area ideal for relaxation or entertaining and a detached store that could be repurposed as needed. Location-wise, this property is approximately 1.9 miles southwest of York's city walls, providing easy access to local amenities and public transport links. Given its characteristics and location, this home represents an interesting opportunity for those willing to invest in renovations or improvements to unlock its full potential. With no onward chain involved in the sale process, you could move forward quickly on this project while also benefiting from Council Tax Band B rates, which are estimated at around £1,680 for 2025/2026.
