Skipwith Road, Escrick, York YO19

Ashtons Estate Agents are pleased to offer to the market this charming two bedroom ground floor apartment with garage, set within the much sought after village of Escrick, located to the south of York. The property is conveniently positioned for access to the A19, Selby, a frequent bus service and is also within approximately a 15 minute drive of York city centre. The village itself offers a good range of amenities including a primary school, petrol station/store and public houses/restaurants.

Derwent Court is understood to have been originally built in the 1800s as a police station and courtroom, later converted into nine dwellings in the 1980s. The building is set within attractive and mature communal grounds on the edge of the village, offering a peaceful and established setting. The property also benefits from a share of the freehold and a lower than average service charge compared to similar developments, with no ground rent payable.

Upon entering the communal vestibule and then the private entrance hall, there is a useful storage cupboard and access through to the bright and airy lounge diner, enjoying tranquil views over the well-maintained communal front lawn. Off the hallway is a bespoke fitted kitchen with an array of wall and base units and integrated cooking facilities.

There are two double bedrooms located at the end of the hall, offering versatile accommodation, along with a stylish shower room and separate WC completing the apartment.

Externally, the property benefits from an ample-sized garage and beautifully maintained communal gardens.

A viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate this charming apartment, its peaceful setting and excellent location, making it an ideal home or investment opportunity.

Anti-Money Laundering Compliance

We are legally required to conduct Anti Money Laundering checks on all purchasers, sellers, and giftors. These checks become mandatory when a seller accepts a purchaser's offer on a property. Anti-Money Laundering checks are valid for 6 months from the date they are completed. If your purchase does not proceed and you make an offer on another property more than 6 months later, or if your checks are more than 6 months old when making a new offer, you will need to complete and pay for new checks. 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.
