Rich in character and packed with original features, the property is arranged over four expansive floors, centred around a striking spiral staircase that creates an impressive focal point throughout the home. The accommodation currently offers 15 bedrooms, most with en-suite facilities, however the scale and flexibility of the layout provide enormous scope for a purchaser to redesign the space into a luxurious private residence tailored to modern family living.

Mount Vale and neighbouring Tadcaster Road remain two of York’s most desirable residential locations, renowned for their elegant period homes, tree-lined surroundings and immediate access to York Racecourse, the Knavesmire and the city centre. The area offers a superb blend of tranquillity and convenience, with excellent schools, independent cafes, restaurants and transport links all within easy reach, whilst York Railway Station and the historic city walls are only a short distance away.

To the rear of the property is a substantial courtyard garden enclosed by iron gates, offering privacy and secure off-street parking potential. A further standout feature is the external brick-built dwelling, previously arranged as two cottages, now offering exciting potential for conversion into a double garage, gym, home office, guest accommodation or ancillary living space, subject to the necessary permissions.

This is a truly rare development and restoration opportunity for buyers seeking a landmark York property with immense character, scale and future potential. Ai-generated imagery has been used in part to demonstrate how sections of the property could be reimagined and transformed.

Offers are sought in excess of £1,000,000.
