A superb three-bedroom modern townhouse nestled within the gated community of Bootham Green—an award-winning redevelopment of a former Victorian school by Advent Developments, honoured with the RICS Pro Yorkshire Residential Award in 2015. Perfectly balancing contemporary living with historic charm, this home spans three floors and features light-filled interiors, eco-conscious finishes, private outdoor space, and driveway parking.
The ground floor of the property opens into a welcoming entrance hall, complete with convenient understairs storage with plumbing for a washing machine. This level features a versatile third bedroom, which can easily function as a home office or gym, and benefits from patio doors leading out to a secluded, sunny courtyard. A sleek, modern shower room completes the ground floor.
Ascending to the first floor, an open-plan kitchen and dining area has been upgraded with a stunning hand-built kitchen, equipped with integrated appliances and contemporary fittings. Adjacent to this is a bright lounge area, featuring a Juliet balcony, providing views over the communal gardens. A separate utility room with WC has also been cleverly configured on this level.
The second floor comprises two spacious double bedrooms. The principal suite includes built-in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room, with a full height window enhancing the light and airy ambiance of the space. The second double bedroom is equally well-proportioned and also features built-in wardrobes.
This beautifully presented home showcases a contemporary aesthetic throughout, with crisp Karndean/lvt flooring, new carpets and upgraded bathrooms fitted in 2023. Stylishly redecorated in recent years, a neutral colour palette, and high-quality modern fixtures create a clean and elegant feel. The property is part of an eco-conscious development, boasting double-glazed windows, water-saving fittings, and improved insulation, all designed to promote energy efficiency. The integral garage provides excellent storage space for bikes or a car, with an electric up-and-over door for convenience.
Alongside the private rear garden, there are beautifully landscaped communal areas, giving a wonderfully green outlook. Security is a key aspect of this development: Entry is via coded electric gates, contributing to a safe and serene living environment and ideal for those seeking a turn-key, lock-up-and-leave city base.
Bootham Green is a sought-after residential area in York. Situated just a short walk from the city centre, it offers easy access to York Minster, the train station (with direct links to London in under 2 hours), and an array of independent shops, cafés, and restaurants. Surrounded by leafy streets and close to the picturesque Homestead Park and River Ouse, Bootham Green appeals to professionals, families, and downsizers alike, thanks to its tranquil atmosphere, local amenities, and sense of community. The area is also well served by reputable schools, including St Peters and Bootham, and excellent transport links, making it both a desirable and practical location to call home.
