Leasehold

A superb two-bedroom maisonette with remarkable views of York Minster, choicely located in one of city’s most desirable residential areas. Principally arranged over two floors, the well-balanced property offers more than 1400 Sq Ft of accommodation (excluding stairwells) and is discretely tucked away on a peaceful no through road. Offered with the convenience of vacant possession and no forward chain.

A private entrance and stairs (with courtesy door to gardens and garage access) lead to an outer upper hall (with double Velux windows) and the accommodation. Off the inner hall is the spacious dining kitchen overlooking the communal gardens and city scape beyond. The kitchen includes a range of fitted wall, base and display units, integrated fridge, freezer and dishwasher, oven, gas hob and extractor. With undercounter space for washing machine and dryer. 

On this level are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both with fitted storage. The bathroom is fitted with a modern suite including a bath with shower over, and vanity sink unit including WC. A separate entrance cloakroom contains a further WC and vanity sink unit.

The impressive living space occupies the entirety of the second (top) floor and includes a central feature chimney breast, eaves storage and access to a private southwest terrace with an elevated view of York Minster.

Directly accessed from the flat are the charming and beautifully maintained communal gardens for all to enjoy. Paving stones lead to secure gate and in turn access to the private garage. The garage is en-bloc with electronic up and over door. Parking provision is within the garage. Membership of the Aldwark development also gives access to visitor car parking space(s).

In summary, a wonderful opportunity to purchase a lovely, bright and airy property in undoubtably one of the city’s best locations.

Aldwark is a small and select development tucked away within the city walls, close to Kings Square and The Shambles. York is famed for its city walls and York Minster, one of Europe’s largest cathedrals of its kind, and is one of the country’s most visited locations, attracting those looking to take advantage of the many restaurants, bars, historic and cultural attractions the city offers. The mainline train station offers services to London in under two hours and road links mean nearby cities such as Leeds and Harrogate are easily reached.

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.

Vendor

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.

 

Mr M Peacock

We consider Lancaster Samms the gold standard

Having worked with a number of estate agents over the years, we consider Lancaster Samms the gold standard. We bought a house with Elkie, who was extraordinarily dedicated, efficient and reliable throughout.

 

We had an extremely difficult sale on our side and the chain was in danger of collapse more than once, but it was Elkie’s care and attention that held everything together for us and for her clients.

We are eternally grateful and would never go anywhere else now!
