This handsome period home sits at the favoured city end of a wide leafy side street off the popular Georgian thoroughfare of Bootham. Ideally positioned to walk into the city centre and close to St Peter’s and Bootham schools. Offered with the convenience of vacant possession and no forward chain, the property has a wealth of character, with the added advantage of off-street parking, garage and garden plus remarkable opportunities for further development.

Much of the 1930’s architecture has been retained with subtle, modern side and rear extensions to provide generous and versatile living space. A charming storm porch leads to the reception hallway and notable original stained glass. This welcoming space provides access to a small study to the front elevation and the principal living accommodation including a bay fronted reception/dining room. The generous rear reception/lounge includes French doors onto the patio and garden beyond. Both with decorative fireplaces, curved architraves and fitted shelving.

The fitted kitchen includes a range of matching wall, base and display cabinets with integrated sink, eye level oven/grill, hob and extractor, complemented by granite work-surfaces. Off the kitchen is a further store with wine rack and drawers, leading to a WC/shower room.  Steps lead into the extended and vaulted dining area, bathed in light via large picture windows and a Velux with courtesy door to the side. This area houses provision for washer/dryer and fridge/freezer.

To the first floor are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, and a modern house bathroom including a shower, bath, vanity sink unit and separate WC. All the bedrooms benefit from fitted cupboards and storage. The rear bedroom has a sink vanity unit.

Externally to the front, the house is set back behind a wall and fenced boundary with mature hedging, alongside a block paved drive and secure gating. Beyond is a garage with matching doors, power, light and further store beyond.

The charming, mature rear garden has been carefully landscaped to maximise privacy and is fortunate to catch much of the afternoon and evening sun. Off the rear of the house is the main patio with steps down to the lawn, flanked by low maintenance borders, planting, ornamental trees and fruiting vines. There is a further patio in the far corner to catch the morning sun. Beyond is an attractive backdrop of fine houses, gardens and mature trees.   

In summary, a cherished family home in one of the city’s most desirable locations with potential for further improvement and development.

Mrs E Harvey

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.

Mr D Holloway

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.
