City House, Fawcett Street, York YO10

Positioned just outside York's historic city walls on Fawcett Street, this impressive ground floor apartment offers spacious living accommodation including a generous lounge/diner, a fitted kitchen, a large double bedroom and a modern three piece bathroom.

Ideal for accessing all the attractions and amenities the city has to offer, the property is also well-placed for the railway station and many additional amenities on the nearby Fishergate.

Set within the historic conversion of the former City Arms public house, the building originally opened its doors in 1829. For over a century, it stood as a thriving local hub, serving as a popular spot for local residents. Today, the landmark building has been thoughtfully restored into eight spacious apartments.

Apartment number one is accessed via a well-proportioned communal hallway. Once inside a private hall leads down to the centrepiece of the home, a generous lounge/diner with stunning high ceilings sporting full height bookcases with integrated hidden ladder cupboard and two large sash windows. One window looks towards the city walls including the historic Fishergate Bar, the other over a private, walled communal gardens to the rear. The lounge/diner is also open with a fitted kitchen featuring a range of wall and base units and a built-in oven and hob. The apartment continues with the impressive double bedroom with further high ceilings and a useful storage cupboard housing a hot water tank. Finally there is a three piece bathroom with a modern white suite, a shower over the bath and a heated towel rail. The property also benefits from a useful storage area which the owners have created above the bathroom and hallway area. There is secondary glazing on the single glazed sash windows, no heating system is currently present and heated water comes from an immersion tank. The building is grade II listed and the property is council tax band B.

Outside the development is a delightful communal garden placed to the rear.
