Outstanding Georgian town house with unusually long front and rear gardens as well as a double garage.

No. 35 Huntington Road is a handsome mid-terrace Regency house within Grove Terrace, one of York’s lesser known but architecturally significant Georgian terraces comprising twelve listed houses all dating from 1824. Along with a double garage, the house has the rare advantage of unusually long gardens both front and back that create a green sanctuary extending some 85 metres within the bustling city. Internally, many of its fine architectural features have been restored and its superb rear extension designed by Mitchell Design Consultancy won a York Design Award in 2019. No. 35 has only had four family owners in its 200-year history and is offered for sale fully renovated to a particularly high specification.

Additional Information - The current owners have refurbished the entire property, creating a luxurious and elegant home; there are multi-pane sash windows with heritage glass, bespoke cabinetry by Peter Thompson of York Ltd and a central heating system that includes period-style column radiators and underfloor heating to the ground floor extension and both bathrooms. Original features have been beautifully restored and, where appropriate, authentic replacements sourced.

No. 35 is constructed of brick with stone dressings and a reclaimed Welsh slate roof. Its handsome pedimented entrance has an original overlight, traditional doorbell and panelled door that opens to a flagstone floor. Elegant hallway arches with pilasters are illuminated by uplights. The sitting room has fine proportions, mellow floorboards, an antique hob grate fireplace and a 16-pane window giving views along the front garden. Beyond, a flowing layout with wide connecting doorways links the kitchen, dining room and garden room with each other and the garden. The Peter Thompson kitchen has bespoke cabinets designed to complement the original architectural detailing of the property. The kitchen includes Corian worktops, a state-of-the-art Miele range cooker, a Quooker boiling water tap, a walk-in pantry and a window seat overlooking the courtyard terrace. A utility/laundry room with original quarry floor tiles and kitchen sink has a high ceiling able to accommodate a Sheila Maid; alongside is a separate cloakroom with a reclaimed high flush wc. Electric underfloor heating has been laid beneath the flagstones which continue to the dining room. This room has a double height ceiling and is illuminated by a large skylight and double doors opening onto a sheltered courtyard garden. Beyond lies the garden room with engineered floorboards, and wall-to-ceiling industrial style Crittal window and doors. These open onto both the garden and courtyard. Stone steps descend from the inner hallway to the generous wine cellar which is tanked, has natural light through an east facing window and offers useful storage.

The principal bedroom suite is laid with wide mellow floorboards and has a Georgian hob grate fireplace that retains its original surround and has a large, fitted wardrobe to one side and an original cupboard to the other side. There are two further bedrooms, one with a basin, and a superb house bathroom with walk-in shower, double ended bath and electric underfloor heating. The room on the second floor rises into the roof space with exposed roof trusses and beams, eaves storage and a large dormer window giving rooftop views to York Minster; alongside is a skilfully designed en suite shower room.

Outside - The long front garden is bounded by restored wrought-iron railings and a garden gate. A strip of lawn and pathway runs its length, bordered by perennials and colourful shrubs with aconites, snowdrops and crocuses in the Spring. An almond tree takes centre stage.

The rear garden is equally long and backs onto Grove Terrace Lane, a private lane and footpath that gives access to the garage of No. 35. The double garage is double height, has electric up-and-over doors, EV charger and light. Additional on street parking is available outside the front of the property through resident and visitor permits. Attached to its front is a greenhouse with stone slab counter and power, as well as a covered area with log store and external tap. This delightful west facing walled garden is private and sheltered, connecting to the contemporary extension via a York stone terrace that wraps around the rear elevation. Colourful shrubs and climbers line the walls and scattered within the lawn are apple, plum and pear trees as well as raised beds. The whole is illuminated with external lighting. An additional terrace, sheltered by the house on three sides, is accessed via the dining room, garden room and kitchen.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
