Bi-folding doors lead out to a terrace and extensive south-west facing garden, perfect for family gatherings.
Designed as a contemporary barn conversion, Dovecote Barn showcases large open truss beams in the kitchen living area, blending old-world charm with modern comforts. The property also features a large private garden, BBQ, and terrace, ideal for outdoor entertaining. Located in York, the vacation home offers easy access to local landmarks such as Holgate Windmill and Bar Convent Museum, as well as shopping destinations like Stonegate and Coppergate Shopping Centre.
