The ground floor is completed by a W.C with sink.

Externally the property has a paved driveway to the front, to the rear is a stunning, tiered garden leading to the river Foss. There is a patio seating area with timber summerhouse, beyond this you have a lawned area and then the riverside section with cabin and mooring for a kayak or rowing boat.
Viewing of this property is highly recommended to truly appreciate all it has to offer.
The current owners say: "One of the best things about living here is that although we are just a 15 minute brisk walk away from all the busy restaurants, theatres and attractions of York City, you would never know this while sitting in the garden watching the river flow by, sipping a cold drink and listening to the birdsong. It is a little haven of peace. (I frequently jump in my kayak and take a lazy glide up and down the Foss if my wife looks like she's going to find jobs for me.....). York Stadium and Community Leisure Centre, are in comfortable walking distance along with Vanguarde and Monks Cross shopping parks. We also have a handy local post office and shop.
One of the questions we are asked most often when we say we live by the river is 'does our house get flooded?' The answer is no. The garden has three tiers down to the river. During the highest rising of the Foss in 2015, the water only reached the third step up on the first tier. If the water ever reached the house then the whole of York would be in trouble!
We are members of the River Foss Society as we have an interest in conserving the river's natural environment and we enjoy a variety of activities and social events associated with this. We have loved living here and being river people."
