INTRODUCTION
The Beechwood Hotel offers an exceptionally unique opportunity to create what will be one of the finest residences there is in York. Once a renowned boutique hotel, the site now has planning permission for conversion and development to build a "one off" family mansion in arguably the most desired residential area in York.
Designed by the superb architects Vincent and Partners of York, the proposed accommodation and design has been meticulously planned to create a vision of splendour and luxury for a home that just simply works. The new dwelling under the current permission will allow for the creation of a circa 10,000 sq ft home that has six grand reception rooms, superb open plan living areas, bedroom suites and additional guest suites.
Outside, Beechwood will sit proudly behind a private gated entrance with generous amounts of space, oodles of private parking and garaging.
This will be a house to behold and a legacy that is created.
The planning permission in place is visionary for its conversion and extension enabling one of the finest houses in York to be created.
Full planning details can be obtained on request from Croft or from York Council's planning website and public access.
