One of the problems of buying property right next to the city center, land is at a bit of a premium

Most of the main york city houses are of a style that I like
Mine is an 1880's three story town house with lots of the original features

mine is a three bedroom redbrick terrace
The most expensive street in York is just up the road from here; St Pauls Square. Beautiful townhouses with a private garden in the square. A newbuild went up for sale there last year for 1.1 million. There's loads of Victorian houses because of the railway boom. Round my way is where railway middle management would have lived.

New properties can GTFO
I know the ins and out of how most of them are built

they don't have the charm of period houses.
I was doing some work the other week and found an empty pack of Park Row cigarettes under the floorboards. Probably from it being built, how cool is that?

most of the major house builders, fling up cheap cubes using the some of the worst constuction methods
One of the few that do actually build nice properties is Charles Church

I'm not looking to move.
Waiting to see where York's HS2 station will be. Likely be very near my house as there's a massive brownfield site near the station. If that gets announced near me then it'll hopefully whack a fair bit of value on.

Quite a bit of mixed feeling on the HS2 and property values
I think it will be a good thing

York's a nice place to live, and although expensive compared to avetage wages in the vicinity
Is affordable with London money.

London commuters already live here, so if the HS2 hub was within easy walking distance of my house, as the main station is, then an already charming and desirable part of a charming and desirable city will probably get a decent rise in value.
