I could just about hit the Marygate house with a well-aimed cricket ball from my garden.
Substantial price increase from last time it sold at 1.5m asking in 2016, explained by bold/wacky/OTT interior decor.
Your door opens directly onto a pedestrian lane which nearly always has someone walking on it.
I never have any hassle with drunks in Museum Gardens and the car park isn't a nuisance.
Don't think about driving anywhere in the daytime but it's a very easy 5 mins walk to the station now they've upgraded Scarborough Bridge.

We’ve walked throughout Museum Gardens twice in the daytime recently. The first time we were approached by an aggressive beggar for money, then last week police were breaking up a fight between 4 drunk guys before arresting one of them. It’s not a particularly pleasant place (albeit typical of parks in many towns/cities these days).

This has just gone back on the market near me after a couple of years of ‘updating’. Standard greys everywhere and I can’t fathom the garage situation but I do like the house. Kitchen doesn’t look well planned though.

Agreed, the parks in even lovely cities like Salisbury can be full of drunks and drug takers in the summer months. TTmonkey said:

It was quite an unexpected ‘bright side’.....

Nice house and handy for the city centre, but near a car park and mixed, high density housing (and the drunks in Museum Gardens), so very overpriced.
I'm new to York but I find these comments hilarious. It's near a small car park where there's no problems, there's no high density housing around there at all (and the high density housing in York seems to be new build and expensive flats anyway), its two minutes from the city walls and ten minutes - max - to the station (so around 125 minutes to Kings Cross from the front door), it opens onto a historic street and has a lovely interior with lots of space. York is a very laid back city indeed,even on a Saturday night.....Escort3500 said:

I've walked through countless times and have never experienced anything negative at all, but then I'm from London so, to me, York is an oasis of calm and tranquility.I live just the other side of the Union Terrace coach park, near to Changing Lives, (you can spot my house by the vast amount of scaffolding) and I would describe the area as very slightly bohemian and no more than that. York is great.
Anyone recognize this one?
In a case of life imitating art, this is the house from the movie “The Money Pit”.
Some estimate that an additional $10M was spent on top of the $2M+ purchase price
It just sold for a little of $3M.
