Knavesmire Crescent

Amazing recently renovated Victorian terraced house overlooking York Racecourse.

We are located in a perfect location within 15 mins walk to York City Centre and nestled in a quiet corner next to the little Knavesmire. You will not find a better location in all of York (even if we do say so ourselves:))
We love our house and spent 2 years fully designing and renovating it to the beautiful home you now see.
