Quietly removed from York’s centre in a residential neighbourhood north of the city, this home will suit those looking to escape the crowds. While the pared-back, neutral interiors aren’t anything to write home about, the double-height ceilings, exposed beams, and sweet twin bedroom on the mezzanine bring plenty of character. And outside, the suntrap terrace garden is a nice touch for evening drinks. If time is on your side, take the riverside walk into York’s centre along the River Ouse (a lazy forty-five-minute stroll). Or hop on the bus (located two minutes from your door) or the bike tracks, and you’ll be there in no time. Home truths: *There is parking for up to two cars – the garage can fit a small car inside (two metres wide), and there is a space directly outside the garage which can fit a medium car *Be aware that the height restriction through the archway leading to the garage parking is two metres high *This home has a mezzanine floor which leads to the twin bedroom – there are stairs leading to this room which may be unsuitable for guests with restricted mobility *The master bedroom is located on the ground floor *Clifton Moor Retail Park is just five minutes from your door to pick up essentials and grab an easy bite to eat *Leaving York is a cinch from here, with easy access to the city's outer ring road
