City centre living in York

Ideally set in a popular location of York city centre and surrounded by historical buildings, Space Property has one 1-bedroom and two 2-bedroom apartments to let in the modern Jacob Court development.

Property

All of the properties have lovely spacious living areas, with a bright and airy feel thanks to the patio doors that lead out onto your own private balcony – you can use this space to put a table and chairs to enjoy the excellent views of the city and well maintained gardens; or create your own mini garden.

The open-plan living areas provide great versatility to use the space however best suits your lifestyle. The kitchen areas feature fully integrated appliances including fridge/freezer, washer/dryer and oven/hob, so you have everything you need in one convenient place.

The one-bed property has a generously sized bedroom that features a fitted double wardrobe, perfect for those with extensive clothing collections! The master bedrooms in the two-bed apartments also feature double wardrobes, and all bedrooms are fully carpeted to create a soft and cosy feel.

Another bonus of these apartments is that they have under-floor heating, so you can feel warm and snug on colder days! The building also has a secure entry system. The location and layout of these modern apartments is suited to young professionals who want to enjoy city centre living.
