Just across the water from the city centre, this luxurious three-storey apartment comes equipped with everything you'd expect of a property of this standard, plus a few little extras. The ground floor kitchen enjoys plenty of light, courtesy of the double-height ceiling with windows on every level. Climb a small flight of stairs up to an open-plan dining area, with space for up to six people to dine in comfort. You'll also find the sitting room on this level, with an inviting corner sofa, plus a couple of single chairs that can be converted into beds if you need them. Continue through the home to find a flexible sleeping space and master bathroom on this floor, with two further bedrooms (one en-suite) on the top floor. Start each day by picking up provisions from the Pig & Pastry cafe just around the corner before crossing the river into the medieval heart of York. It'll take you a very manageable fifteen-to-twenty-minute stroll to reach the headline sights, including the famous Jorvik Viking Museum, York Minster cathedral and the shopping streets of The Shambles.
