We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Set within a characterful period building in the heart of the city centre, this newly converted three bedroom duplex apartment offers stylish, high quality accommodation finished to an excellent standard throughout.
Thoughtfully renovated, the property blends period features with contemporary design, creating a home equally suited to owner occupation or short term letting.
The first floor opens into an impressive open plan living, dining and kitchen space, flooded with natural light from large sash windows.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of integrated appliances and centred around a generous peninsula, providing both a practical workspace and an informal dining area.
A separate storage room houses the boiler, keeping the main living space uncluttered and functional.
Also on this level is a well appointed family bathroom fitted with a three piece suite and shower over the bath, along with a spacious double bedroom that benefits from a dedicated dressing area.
The upper floor comprises two further double bedrooms, including the principal bedroom which enjoys the luxury of an ensuite shower room.
The layout works well for both day to day living and for maximising occupancy as a short term or holiday let.
Importantly, the lease places no restrictions on holiday or short term letting, making this a rare and flexible opportunity within York city centre.
Finished to a high standard and positioned just moments from the city’s shops, restaurants and historic attractions, this is an ideal city centre home or investment.

We use a partner supplier MoveButler, to carry out these checks on our behalf.
They will contact you directly once your offer has been accepted (subject to contract) to complete the electronic verification process securely.
There is a non-refundable charge of £30 + VAT per purchaser and per giftor for these checks..
This fee must be paid before we can issue a memorandum of sale to solicitors and is non-refundable under any circumstances.
Ashtons receive a portion of this fee from MoveButler as compensation for facilitating these checks and our administrative role in the compliance process.
