A rare historic gem in the Heart of York a Grade II listed townhouse of exceptional character and elegance, nestled in the prestigious Marygate area.
Marygate is perfectly placed opposite the walls of St Mary’s Abbey enclosing the Museum Gardens, enjoying a remarkably tranquil position given its easy access to both the city centre and the railway station.
Nestled in a discreet yet central position, this exceptional residence blends timeless heritage with modern family living. The entrance vestibule opens into a grand staircase hall adorned with original Minton tiles and provides access to a wine cellar. Two front reception rooms — including a study with a marble fireplace and bay window overlooking the church — offer refined spaces for work and relaxation. A family room with a feature fireplace shares the same tranquil view.
To the rear, a cosy sitting room connects to the kitchen via glazed double doors and opens into the garden through French doors. The kitchen itself leads directly into a beautifully landscaped walled garden featuring a traditional bothy, greenhouse, and potting shed — a rare sanctuary of peace and privacy in the heart of the city.
The home offers six spacious double bedrooms across two upper floors, with bathrooms on each level. The principal bedroom enjoys garden views and includes a private dressing room and en-suite bathroom.
This is a rare opportunity to rent a distinguished home in one of the city's most sought-after locations.
Conveniently situated within walking distance of the 2 most prominent schools of St Peter’s and Bootham, and equally well placed for access to the north of York via the A19 and further afield.

When it comes to making an offer on a property a bit of negotiation is to be expected, however don't offer so little that you end up in a lengthy negotiation process, as you might lose the property altogether if someone else makes a higher bid.
If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.
To make an offer, simply click on the ‘Make offer’ button at the top of this page, then input your email address so we can send you an offer form for you to complete and send back to us.
