Bellflowers at Teatime York, North Yorkshire

Property Description

There's a timeless quality to this home, just a short walk from the city centre. Part of a period terrace, it's as pretty as a picture – both inside and out. You're spoilt for choice here, with two sitting rooms to choose between. Both super comfortable and classically furnished, there's the front room with its arched window and cosy sofas, and the former dining room with its armchairs and log burning stove. Giving the option of letting the youngsters have their own living space, it's a handy arrangement made possible by the kitchen extension. In this modern space, you'll have an excellent, fully kitted-out kitchen (hello range cooker!) and a dining area that opens out to the charming little courtyard. In the summer evenings, it's the perfect spot for dinner and drinks outside. With two good size bedrooms and a luxurious bathroom with a freestanding bathtub, we didn't think this warm, welcoming home could get any better. But it can – you're welcome to bring along your pet too.

Home truths:
*This home is pet friendly – a rare find this close to the city centre.
*You'll be supplied with a parking permit but a space in the narrow road is not guaranteed – you may have to park in a nearby street.
*There's a private entrance here.
*The kitchen lacks basic cleaning supplies, for longer stays, you will need to buy additional dishwashing liqiud and laudry detergent.
*The second bedroom can be arranged as a double or a twin – let the host know.
*The master bedroom curtains aren't blackout – light sleepers may want to pack an eye mask.
