7 bed end terrace house for sale

Mount Vale, York YO24

Furlong House is one of the most desirable properties in the city. Situated in this fantastic location, less than a mile from the city centre, the double fronted Victorian residence enjoys views over woodland and York Knavesmire/Racecourse.

The property was originally constructed in 1838 with later 19th and 20th Century additions providing spacious and versatile accommodation set around a cobbled private courtyard with parking for several vehicles and garaging. Beyond the courtyard is a large private, beautifully landscaped, garden, which benefits from a westerly facing aspect and an abundance of mature shrubs and trees.

The versatile family living accommodation consists of a large 5 bedroom double fronted house with three reception rooms and three bathrooms. A second staircase leads to two of the bedrooms and one bathroom, with a handmade kitchen and separate utility room, there are also 2 cellars to the main house. In recent years the property has undergone extensive refurbishment with a no expense spared approach including replacement hardwood sash windows, mosaic tiled floors, the fitting of a handcrafted kitchen with aga and the fitting out of the main cellar for wine and additional storage.

In addition to the main house is a contemporary one bedroom apartment above the garage, accessed via a wrought iron staircase from the rear garden. The apartment has been refurbished to the highest of standards, which could be entirely separate from the house or with minimal modification incorporated into the accommodation.

Furlong House offers the rare opportunity to acquire a fantastically well balanced family house in one of the most prestigious and desirable locations in the city.
