FEELING crowded out by the neighbours? Tired of seeing all those cars parked outside your house? Then a property newly on the market could be for you. The 19th century cottage sits on its own island in the River Derwent at Elvington.
This home would suit a boating enthusiast. In fact a boat is something of a necessity, as the house is accessible only by boat. This watery arrangement should keep away all but the most determined door-to-door salesmen or seekers after your salvation.
And at £100,000, this cottage, while requiring modernisation, surely counts as a bargain in over-heated, expensive York.
