3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Ouseacres, Boroughbridge Road, York YO26

A beautiful Edwardian family home, tucked away on a generous corner plot, where period charm meets modern family living.
Set back from the road behind a mature hedge, this is one of those homes that feels special from the moment you arrive. The enclosed front garden gives a wonderful sense of privacy and, because of the generous corner plot, the house feels incredibly spacious and tucked away from the outside world. With a gravel driveway and the rare bonus of a single garage, it's immediately welcoming.

Open the front door and you're greeted by a bright, inviting entrance hall that instantly makes you feel at home. Beautiful tiled flooring, high ceilings and original character create a lovely first impression, and throughout the house you'll find gorgeous stained glass windows, fireplaces and all the charm you would hope for from an Edwardian home.

To the right, the two reception rooms flow beautifully together, creating a fantastic family living space. Whether it's cosy evenings around the fire, Christmas with the family or children playing while dinner is cooking, it's easy to imagine everyday life unfolding here. Flooded with natural light from the beautiful bay window, these rooms are both elegant and incredibly comfortable.

There is also another versatile reception room, perfect as a playroom while the children are young, a home office, a formal dining room or even a snug. It's a house that can easily adapt as your family grows and changes.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully opened up to create a lovely sociable dining space - somewhere everyone naturally gathers. Modern, bright and beautifully finished, it's easy to imagine family breakfasts before school, helping with homework around the table or friends gathered over dinner while the doors are open to the garden.

Outside, the garden is a real highlight. The generous lawn gives children plenty of room to kick a football, climb, play and explore, while the private patio catches the afternoon and evening sun - perfect for barbecues or summer evenings with friends

Upstairs you'll find three really good-sized bedrooms, all beautifully presented, together with a generous family bathroom. There is also plenty of fitted storage, making day-to-day family life that little bit easier.

I particularly love the location too. Boroughbridge Road has always been one of Acomb's most sought-after addresses. You're within walking distance of excellent schools, local parks, independent cafés, shops and everything Acomb has to offer, whilst York city centre, the railway station and the exciting York Central development are all just a short distance away. It's a brilliant place to bring up a family, giving you the best of both worlds - a peaceful home with everything you need close by.

Agents view "This is exactly the sort of house that families fall in love with. It has all the character and warmth of a beautiful Edwardian home, but it's been updated so thoughtfully for modern living. I love how private it feels, tucked away behind the hedge, and the garden is somewhere children will spend years making memories. It's a house that simply feels like home."
