Rawcliffe Lane, York, North Yorkshire, YO30 5SJ

A beautifully extended detached family residence, offering well-balanced accommodation, a large private garden, integral garage and generous off-street parking.

Description A rare opportunity to acquire this beautifully extended and comprehensively updated detached 1930s residence, occupying a generous plot with an exceptional rear garden.

The property is positioned within a highly sought-after residential enclave, approximately one mile from York city centre, offering the perfect balance of privacy and convenience.

Set well back from the road behind a mature boundary hedge, the house enjoys a notable degree of seclusion.

To the front is a substantial gravelled driveway providing ample parking and access to the integral garage.

While the property retains much of its original architectural character and period charm, a series of thoughtful and sympathetic additions have significantly enhanced both the scale and versatility of the accommodation, creating a highly practical family home.

Of particular note is the impressive loft conversion, currently used as an artist’s studio but equally well suited to a generous additional bedroom, and the elegant garden room extension which offers further dining space and a delightful outlook over the expansive garden throughout the seasons.

The ground floor accommodation is exceptionally well balanced, with each reception room enjoying excellent levels of natural light and centred around attractive fireplaces, one incorporating a cast iron stove.

Completing this level is a modern, well-appointed family kitchen, framed by sliding patio doors that open directly onto the rear terrace, seamlessly linking indoor and outdoor living.

The sense of space and light continues on the first floor, where four well-proportioned bedrooms enjoy open views and an abundance of natural light.

The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a generous family bathroom with separate shower.

Overall, this is a beautifully maintained and well-balanced home of considerable character, complemented by a superb rear garden extending to approximately 100 feet.

The surrounding greenery provides a tranquil, leafy backdrop, an enviable setting so close to the heart of the city.

Location Rawcliffe Lane is ideally suited for access to the city, St Peters and Bootham schools on foot and access also to the ring road and Clifton Moor Retail and Business Park.

Clifton Green offers a mix of local shops, including Chemist, Explore Library with Cafe and an excellent Butcher.

Close by is Homestead Park, a glorious six-acre park with formal beds, recreational space, a wildlife pond and children's play area. The city centre can be accessed via Bootham or the riverside walks.

In addition the property is located in close proximity to over 100 acres of open grassland for long walks. Please note all distances are approximate Square Footage: 2,265 sq ft
