Nursery Gardens, York, YO10

Coming to the market for the first time since the 1950s is this traditional, bay fronted, semi-detached home in the sought after area of Osbaldwick. In need of some modernisation, this property offers three good sized bedrooms, house bathroom, open plan lounge diner with separate kitchen and a ground floor wet room.

This much-loved family home is located in a prime position, nestled away from Hull Road and within walking distance of the popular Archbishop Holgate’s Secondary School and local shops. Offered to the market for the first time since it was originally built in the 1950s, the property is in good condition, but would benefit from a scheme of modernisation.

Set back behind a dwarf brick wall bordered with mature shrubs and hedges, a block paved driveway leads to a single garage and the storm porch entrance.

A glazed timber door opens to the hallway, fitted with laminate flooring and a carpeted staircase leading to the first-floor accommodation.

The lounge is situated to the front of the property and is a naturally light room thanks to the generous bay window. Sitting central to the lounge is a gas fire with marble hearth and a timber surround, and there is plenty of space for items of freestanding furniture.

The lounge flows through to the dining room, creating a nice open plan living space, which is ideal for the modern-day family. This end of the room benefits from engineered oak flooring and double doors leading out onto the rear garden.

The kitchen is the traditional layout, with timber base and wall units and contrasting laminate worktops and breakfast bar. A stainless-steel sink with a mixer tap sits below a window overlooking the garden, space is provided for a free standing cooker and under counter fridge, and a larder cupboard offers extra storage space.

A rear hallway gives access to the integral garage, the converted wet room and the garden room, which is brick built with a Perspex roof and timber windows and door.

To the first floor are three bedrooms and the house bathroom.

The principal room overlooks the front of the property and benefits from a lovely bay window, synonymous with the era of the property. Fitted wardrobes provide ample clothes storage, with plenty of space remaining for free standing bedroom furniture.

Bedroom two is another double room to the rear of the property, also with built in wardrobes and a window giving views over the garden.

Bedroom three is a good-sized single room, again with views over the rear garden.

The house bathroom is generous in size and features a large corner bath with shower over, pedestal wash hand basin and low-level WC. A frosted window to the front offers privacy, ventilation and light.

Externally, the property offers a beautifully mature garden, mainly laid to lawn but also bordered with hedges, shrubs, rose bushes and more.
