Key Features

  • Former Workshop Space
  • Popular Central Location
  • Suitable for Redevelopment (STP)
  • 4 Car parking spaces

Description

The property comprises a former workshop building set within a self-contained site just off The Crescent, a well-established residential location within York. The site is accessed via a shared/private approach and benefits from a largely hardstanding yard area providing parking and servicing.

The site benefits from a relatively regular configuration and an open yard area, which may lend itself to reconfiguration and more efficient use as part of a redevelopment proposal.

Overall, this represents a rare opportunity to acquire a site with redevelopment potential in a popular and well-located residential area of York, with scope to add value through planning and repositioning.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.

Rivers and the sea

Very low risk

Planning map: Flood Zone 1.

Surface water

Medium to low risk (1 in 100 to 1 in 1000)

Not at the pin: mapped about 10 metres away.

These bandings are the summary. Where this location sits on the flood maps, plus planning activity, heritage and ground risks, is in the full report.

Important notice: Information, maps and tags on this page are drawn from the advertising agent's marketing materials or generated automatically. LandSale has not verified them. Relying on these details is at your own risk, always carry out independent checks before committing to a purchase.
