Although the city of York is famed for its historical buildings, this contemporary apartment development is well worth your time, especially this second-floor corner home. In the living room, there are huge floor-to-ceiling windows that let in plenty of natural light, but also look out to a pleasant view of the River Foss flowing by. On warm days, you can draw back the glass door and enjoy the breeze on your face while enjoying this peaceful scene. Despite this distraction, the interior doesn't rest on its laurels, though. There's underfloor heating for the chillier months and a stylish kitchen to keep you fuelled for wandering around the city. Thankfully, an awful lot awaits nearby. York Castle Museum takes around five minutes to reach on foot, as does JORVIK Viking Centre.
