1 bed flat to rent

Micklegate, City Centre YO1

A great opportunity to live on the iconic Micklegate in York. A well presented 1 bedroom apartment with white goods included is available early August.

Property Description

Built in the mid-18th Century, this striking Georgian townhouse has since been converted to a number of self-contained, modern apartments that have been finished to a high specification.

Entering via the communal doorway on street level, the apartment is located on the third floor of the building and is accessed by a staircase that is made up of old materials including the original balusters of c. 1730–40. The entrance hallway leads off into the spacious front lounge and combined open plan kitchenette, with fitted units, washing-machine, undercounter fridge and oven. There are two prominent period sash-windows with secondary glazing overlooking the front aspect.

To the rear of the apartment lies the sizable master bedroom, with high ceilings, period cornices and a large built-in storage cupboard. The contemporary fitted bathroom with shower, wash basin and lavatory completes this property internally.

Please note that, due to the central location of this property, there is no allocated parking. We would encourage prospective tenants to make their own enquiries with the City of York Council as the availability of any resident's parking permit schemes.

Holding Deposit Disclaimer

Upon successful application, we will politely request a holding deposit of £150. A Holding Deposit is taken to secure a property off the market whilst an application is considered and references and credit checks are processed. It is our practice to refund the holding deposit by deducting it from the first payment of rent, unless applicants require it to be refunded separately.

A holding deposit will not be refunded if the tenancy is not taken up for any of the following reasons:-

Any reference or credit check is not satisfactory; or
Any information supplied on the application form is untrue, inaccurate or misleading; or
The applicant changes their mind and decides not to take the tenancy applied for or delays in doing so; or
Any reference has not been received within 14 days of request and the property is remarketed; or
If an applicant does not have the right to rent the property pursuant to the Immigration Act 2014 and that was not mentioned in their application form.
Please note as of the 14th May 2025, there has been a change to the Anti Money Laundering Legislation. It is now a requirement that all agents check Landlords and Tenants against the UK Sanctions List provided by the Government. This does not affect your credit rating and is carried out by Naish Estate Agents, prior to any tenancy start date. Please see the attached link for your reference.
