A substantial and elegant period home which received well deserved interest from local and national buyers keen to be close to the station and city centre.

Arranged over four floors, the property now presents as an attractive and practical home having been remodelled to suit a more modern lifestyle. Many of the rooms offer an attractive blend of modern fittings and original features including period fireplaces, doors and casement sash windows.

 

Dating from the turn of the century and constructed of attractive mellow brick under a slate roof, the layout and design of the property is very representative of many of the fine Victorian townhouse’s houses built at that time on the edge of the city centre. Of note is the stunning central staircase with curved balustrade.

 

Stone steps lead to the entrance hallway and principal living accommodation including the impressive bay fronted sitting room to the front elevation and further lounge to the rear. Both rooms feature fireplaces, bespoke cabinets, stripped floorboards and period colour schemes.

 

The lower ground floor has direct external access and includes a large dining area bathed in natural light and opening into the kitchen. The kitchen includes a range of wall and base units, inset Belfast sink, dishwasher and range cooker. French doors open onto a patio with garden beyond. In addition is a WC, side door and outside store.

 

To the first floor are two double bedrooms, both with original Victorian tiled cast iron fireplaces, large sash windows and bespoke fitted wardrobes. Both bedrooms are serviced by a modern house bathroom suite. The second-floor houses two further bedrooms with commanding city scape views, sharing a central shower room/WC. All bedrooms have double replacement glazed sash windows.

 

Externally to the front is a large forecourt set behind wrought iron railings, whilst to the rear is a walled courtyard garden with decked and patio area. Beyond is an alarmed brick-built garage with eaves storage and limited vehicular access along the alley.

Lancaster Samms are by far the best Estate Agents I have ever worked with

Neil really went the extra mile in getting my mum’s house on the market and then getting it sold.

Neil was knowledgeable, reassuring, hard-working, and incredibly thoughtful to both us and the buyers. I cannot recommend his services highly enough.

Elkie was absolutely brilliant from start to finish

I recently bought a house through Lancaster Samms.  My estate agent was Elkie. She was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. An absolute joy to deal with, so much so I would now consider her a friend.  She was so professional keeping me in the loop of a very long probate sale.

Over the course of many months, Elkie met me at the house several times so that I could organise the future renovation work. She was always happy to help.
House buying can be overwhelming sometimes however Elkie always made me feel calm and she was a pleasure to work with.

I am now the owner of the house that I fell in love with on day one. I couldn’t be happier!

Amazing and professional service from start to finish at a hard time for our family

Just sold my late mums bungalow with Elkie from Lancaster Samms.

Amazing and professional service from start to finish at a hard time for our family. Would 100% recommend using them .
Thank you once again Elkie for going over and beyond to make the selling process stress free.

Mrs V Clint

We felt like we were Elkie's only customers

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Elkie at Lancaster Samms for the highest standard of customer service she provided during our sale.

We had the smoothest, no stress sale you could possibly have wanted, couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Elkie lead us through the whole process from beginning to end with ease.  She was always contactable, never left us hanging and kept us updated throughout, no matter how small the detail.  She answered all our questions, no matter how trivial.

We highly recommend Elkie and Lancaster Samms as the Estate Agents to go to.

Lancaster Samms are pure gold.

A good estate agent is like gold dust – rare, hard to find but extremely valuable.

Lancaster Samms are pure gold. Professional, timely, proactive, trustworthy and a million miles apart from your ‘typical’ estate agents. I would absolutely use them again. Special mention to Elkie, our closer, who is the Ray Donovan of the York real estate community i.e. a professional fixer. I imagine a significant number of conveyancing transactions have completed only because of her expertise in helping sellers (and buyers) navigate an often frustrating process.
