Gently-updated and centrally-located traditional two-bedroom York terrace in buzzy, friendly and safe area of Bootham, York YO30.
Would suit non-smoking (sharers or couple) students, academics, contractors, professionals, NHS workers looking for a house. Sorry, no pets due to severe allergies.
A pleasant 1.5km walk from York train station along an easy path, or walk along mainly green route to York Minster cathedral, commercial quarter (YO90) and the history-packed streets of Harry Potter fame.
International friends have enjoyed the experience of living in this friendly and typically English neighbourhood close to shops and schools, and with York NHS district hospital just 5 minutes away.
Bootham is both a historic, buzzy and family friendly neighbourhood, with plenty of cool or cosy pubs, highly-regarded schools and fun activities such as swimming or pottery are all within easy walking distance. And on weekends, head down to the river or join a friendly walking/hiking/cycling/climbing group to explore the vast Yorkshire countryside.
If you are a visiting academic or attending an academic conference, house is handy for travelling to University of York in daytime and then as evening socialising is invariably in York centre, you can walk from centre back to house. Conference venue and the main buildings of University of York UoY campus is 20 minutes via York cycle loop or via bus 6, which stops conveniently close to house.

Hello, nice to meet you! Firstly, I would say I am lucky to have travelled widely, I look for kindness and creativity in people, and I try to tread carefully wherever I go. And it is with that same care that I approached modernising mi casa, and choosing stuff with care. Long story short, have decided to hold on to house for now in order to keep my future options open - hence Flatio. ~ I consciously choose trains, walking or cycling, and my younger adventures were enabled by the now retro couchsurfing website ~ from jollof rice to katsu curry to chocolate brownies, I can make a fair number of world food favourites to a fairly decent standard ~ don’t judge too harshly, but my Spotify is mainly 1990s and 2000s pop ~ workwise, I can spot a typo from a hundred paces away and have ghostwritten more listicles than I can remember ~ always keen for good hike, but please don't ask me to navigate

Every time you rent through Flatio, you're automatically covered by our StayProtection package.
By booking this property, you'll also enjoy extended protection in the form of Stay Benefits - a unique offering backed by AXA! Here's what such packaging includes:
Once you send a booking request, the host is notified that you are interested in their listing. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your booking.
Hosts are mainly interested in the profile of their guest. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your booking will more likely get approved.
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every listing. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on Flatio, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the hosts on Flatio.
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on Flatio from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the host and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
In the event that you move in and the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on Flatio, let us know as soon as possible!
If the conditions for the withdrawal are met and the host can't fix the issue immediately, you have the option to withdraw from the lease agreement with a full refund. We'll also actively help you find an alternative accommodation and remain by your side until everything is fully resolved.
You can read the conditions and all details about our Move-in Guarantee in this article of our Help Center.
How you can cancel a booking varies depending on what stage the booking is in.
Is your booking request still waiting for host approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your booking request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the booking before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the host accepts your booking, the property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved booking and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your booking, contact Flatio customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
