Offered to the market with the added advantage of no forward chain, it provides a rare blank canvas for those looking to craft a home of distinction and character.

Extending to approximately 4,900 sq ft, the property combines scale and elegance with accommodation thoughtfully arranged across four spacious floors. Complete with a private driveway, garage, and a generous rear garden, it offers all the essentials for modern family living while retaining the grace and charm of a bygone era. Homes of this size, potential, and prominence seldom come to market, making this a truly unique opportunity. With imagination and careful design, it can be reimagined to suit contemporary lifestyles, blending beautiful period heritage with stylish, modern finishes.

The property has a fascinating history, having been informally configured in the past as separate dwellings on each level. This distinctive layout offers extraordinary flexibility for the next owner. Whether it is restored to its former glory as a single, impressive family residence or adapted to create a multi-generational living space, the possibilities are endless. Its generous proportions, soaring ceilings, and original features evoke a timeless sophistication that is rarely found in modern homes, providing a wonderful foundation for a truly exceptional interior.

The setting is every bit as impressive as the home itself. St George’s Place is a prestigious and highly desirable address, located just 0.7 miles south of York’s historic city walls at Micklegate Bar. The street is lined with elegant Victorian and Edwardian properties, forming a distinctive and picturesque enclave that blends rich heritage with a welcoming community feel. Nestled beside the Knavesmire and York Racecourse, the location offers the best of both worlds - a peaceful retreat with beautiful green spaces close by, yet just a short walk or cycle from the vibrant city centre. Excellent local amenities, highly regarded schools, and superb transport connections further enhance its appeal.

The property benefits from gas central heating and retains its classic single-glazed sash windows, offering scope for sympathetic modernisation to improve energy efficiency and comfort. With an energy performance rating to be confirmed, there is the opportunity to combine the beauty of period architecture with modern-day sustainable living.

This is far more than just a property; it is a chance to create a home that is entirely your own. Whether you dream of a grand, character-filled family residence or a flexible living space designed for modern life, this magnificent house provides the scale, setting, and heritage to bring those aspirations to life.
