Charming Grade II listed three-storey townhouse next to Lendal Bridge and within the city walls
Description
Whistler House is a beautiful and historic Grade II listed townhouse that has been sensitively brought up-to-date, lovingly improved whilst retaining much of its original charm resulting in a most flexible and elegant home.
The accommodation is arranged over three floors, featuring well proportioned and well balanced rooms throughout with fantastic views of the bar walls. The property itself borders onto the city walls with the lower half of the rear being constructed from the wall itself.
The house is accessed via the side gate to the rear of the property. Leading off the hallway is a shower room, sitting room and open plan kitchen dining room with stone flooring throughout. The sitting room has been upgraded with the lower parts of the walls pannelled and a modern gas fire has been fitted. The kitchen has recently been renovated with shaker style wall and base units with granite worktops and integrated appliances, the kitchen island has a breakfast bar and an integrated wine cooler.
To the first floor are two bedrooms, bedroom two has a beautiful original bay window with seating and bedroom two benefits from an en suite shower room. On the second floor is the principal bedroom with a contemporary en suite bathroom, vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and fitted wardrobes.
To the rear of the property is an attractive south-west facing garden with raised terraced area.
There is no service charge and the ground rent is peppercorn.
Location
The property occupies an enviable riverside location within the walls of the historic city and ideal for the cities York Theatre Royal, York Art Gallery and York Explore.
The property is ideally placed for the historic Minster and the vibrancy and vitality of the city centre, with its array of independent shops, national brands, restaurants, coffee shops and amenities.
The Museum Gardens is situated behind, set in the magnificent surroundings of the ruins of St Mary’s Abbey. Along with the award winning The Star Inn the City by Andrew Pern and the Michelin-starred restaurant, Roots, by Tommy Banks there is also Skosh by Neil Bentinck which also boasts a Michelin-star, positioned on popular Micklegate, all three within very close proximity to the apartment.
Located beside the River Ouse is York City Rowing Club, York Pilates Space and The Perky Peacock, a cosy café in a medieval tower. Further along is Rowntree Park (about one mile) with café, a playground and tennis and basketball courts.
York railway station is under half a mile away and offers regular services to major cities including Manchester, Edinburgh and London with some journeys taking less than two hours to Kings Cross. The A64 ring road is about three miles from the city centre giving access to Leeds, the A1(M) and the wider motorway.
The city offers a diverse range of primary and secondary schools including Scarcroft Primary School (Academy), All Saints rc School (Ofsted Outstanding 2016) and Millthorpe School (Academy). Independent schools on offer are The Mount, St Peter's and Bootham.
