Enjoy incredible sixth-floor views over York from this dazzling apartment just a stone’s throw from the River Foss. Upon entering the home, you’ll be immediately struck by the floor-to-ceiling windows filling the space with light and proffering picturesque views over the city’s rooftops as well as the historic York Minster in the distance. Whether you’re curled up on the sofa with a mug of Yorkshire tea or relaxing in the corner seating area with a glass of wine at sunset, you’ll be transfixed by the ever-changing city tableau in front of you. With its wood floors, sparkling appliances and contemporary decor, there’s no mistaking this chic pad for anything other than luxury living.
