Victoria Road, Pocklington, YO42 2BZ
A spacious Victorian mid-terrace home with generous reception space, a south-facing garden, garage and off-street parking, conveniently positioned opposite Victoria Park and within easy reach of Pocklington town centre.
This attractive Victorian home combines period character with practical family living, offering flexible accommodation in a highly convenient location just a short stroll from the excellent amenities of Pocklington. Beautifully presented throughout, the property benefits from three bedrooms, two reception rooms, a private south-facing garden, garage and allocated off-street parking. The property is offered for sale with no onward chain.
The current owner has thoughtfully enhanced the home with a new boiler and new carpets to the downstairs accommodation, providing a fresh feel and added peace of mind for the next purchaser. The chimney was repointed last year and the integrity of the roof was also checked at the same time.
Extending to approximately 1,247 sq ft, including the garage and garden room, the accommodation retains a wealth of period charm. The welcoming sitting room features a beautiful fireplace with decorative surround, high ceilings and an elegant ceiling rose, creating a warm and inviting space. Adjoining this is the spacious dining/family room, where a former fireplace has been transformed into an attractive brick arched feature. Double doors open into the garden room, while a generous walk-in understairs cupboard provides useful storage.
The kitchen is fitted with an excellent range of contemporary cream gloss wall and base units, complemented by a gas hob, electric oven and extractor hood. The sale also includes the dishwasher and fridge/freezer. Beyond the kitchen is a modern ground floor WC, whilst the adjoining garden room is currently utilised as additional storage and offers excellent potential to be reconfigured into further living accommodation, subject to any necessary consents.
Accessed from the garden room is a practical utility room, complete with sink, plumbing for an automatic washing machine, work surfaces and additional storage units. The automatic washing machine is included within the sale.
To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom. Bedrooms one and two are generous double bedrooms, with one overlooking the open green space of Victoria Park to the front and the other enjoying views over the garden to the rear. The third bedroom also overlooks Victoria Park to the front and would make an ideal nursery, home office or single bedroom. The family bathroom is fitted with a modern white suite, tiled flooring, partially tiled walls and a shower over the bath.
The enclosed south-facing rear garden is a particular highlight, enjoying sunshine from mid-morning through to late evening. The garden has been thoughtfully arranged with a paved seating area, lawn and flower beds, together with direct access into the garage. Beyond the garage is pedestrian access to a private lane, where the property benefits from an allocated off-street parking space. Measuring approximately 25'4" x 9'10", the garage offers excellent versatility for parking, storage or workshop space.
