This charming townhouse is just off Bishopthorpe “Bishy” Road. Hit the shops, restaurants and pubs of Bishy Road or make the ten-minute stroll along the River Ouse into the meandering medieval heart of York. It’s a typical red-brick terrace house with period features like original fireplaces and a claw-footed tub on display inside. The kitchen is farmhouse-style, perfect for rustling up family meals and the rustic dining table continues the provincial feel. Those bringing four-legged friends will find the little enclosed backyard a real bonus.
