4 bed detached house for sale

Petersway, York. YO30

A rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished detached 1930s residence, originally designed and built for Frank Pick, the visionary behind the London Underground, set within mature and private gardens.

Tucked away within a quiet cul-de-sac, the property enjoys a highly desirable position just a short walk from a wide range of amenities and York city centre, via the beautiful tree-lined Bootham. The area is also well served by excellent school catchments, including the renowned St Peter's School and Bootham School. Riverside and countryside walks are quite literally on the doorstep, offering the perfect balance of tranquil surroundings while remaining close to the heart of the city.

Offered to the market for the first time in over 50 years, this much-loved home has been carefully maintained and now presents an exciting opportunity for modernisation and extension, subject to the necessary planning consents.

The property offers generous and versatile family accommodation throughout. A footpath leads through the front lawn to a glazed entrance porch, opening into a welcoming central reception hall. To the left, there is a shower room, a useful ground floor bedroom or home office, and a separate utility room, leading through to the kitchen at the rear.

On the opposite side of the hall, the spacious living room provides an excellent area for relaxation, featuring a bay window that floods the room with natural light, along with additional windows and a door opening to the side garden. A separate dining room offers ideal space for family gatherings and entertaining, with patio doors leading out to the garden. The ground floor is completed by a well-proportioned breakfast kitchen with a range of units, space for freestanding appliances, a separate pantry, and a glazed porch providing access to the rear garden.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en-suite WC, accompanied by two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Externally, the property is set within extensive, mainly lawned gardens. To the front, a driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a detached single garage. The rear garden is particularly generous, featuring a large patio area and well-stocked planted borders. In addition, the property benefits from an old air raid shelter, currently utilised as a practical garden storage space.

This charming home would benefit from some cosmetic updating yet offers exceptional potential for a purchaser to sympathetically restore and enhance it, creating a truly special family residence in a highly desirable location. Offered with no onward chain, a viewing is highly recommended.

Offer Procedure

Before contacting a Building Society, Bank or Solicitor you should make your offer to the office dealing with the sale, as any delay may result in the sale being agreed to another purchaser, thus incurring unnecessary costs. Under the Estate Agency Act 1991, you will be required to provide us with financial information in order to verify your position, before we can recommend your offer to the vendor. We will also require proof of identification in order to adhere to Money Laundering Regulations.

Anti Money Laundering Compliance

We are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering (aml) checks on all purchasers and sellers. These checks become mandatory once a seller accepts an offer on a property (subject to contract).

Aml checks are valid for six months from the date of completion. If your transaction does not proceed and you submit an offer on another property more than six months later, or if your existing aml check is more than six months old at the time of a new offer, you will be required to complete and pay for a new check.

We appoint hipla as our compliance partner to carry out these checks on our behalf. Once your offer has been accepted (subject to contract), hipla will contact you directly to complete a secure electronic verification process.

A non-refundable fee of £30 + VAT per purchaser is payable for the aml check. This fee must be paid before we can issue the Memorandum of Sale to the solicitors. The fee is non-refundable in all circumstances.

Hudson Moody receives service credits from hipla which may be used against other services, in recognition of facilitating the checks and undertaking associated administrative compliance duties.
