Galtres House is a truly unique family home, not only because of its Arts and Crafts style but also due to the fact the gardens and grounds amount to approximately 1.5 acres which is almost unheard for a house so close to the centre of York.
The accommodation is all beautifully presented, oozing with character and charm. The principal reception rooms and bedrooms all face south and look out on to the garden. The house is approached down a private and secure driveway which leads to a large parking area and detached double garage.
One of the main attributes of Galtres House is the wonderful garden. Not only is it huge for a property so close to the city centre but is also extremely private and perfect for children to play in. There is a heated swimming pool with hot tub beside and changing and showering facilities. As well as all of this, there are terraces and patios around the house, making it ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining.
All in all, Galtres House is the perfect family home in a most amazing location for York.
