Final phase of ‘luxury’ Old Fire Station residential development unveiled

The final phase of a redevelopment of the Old Fire Station in York has been revealed as work is finalised.

York-based developer the Helmsley Group and London Ebor Developments have finalised the work with Caddick Construction as new ‘luxury’ apartments and three riverside townhouses are completed.

With construction beginning in 2017, the development at the historic Old Fire Station will comprise seven apartments and seven townhouses, with efforts made to retain the original features of the building.

Toby Cockcroft, director of Croft Residential, the York agency which - along with Carter Jonas - is marketing the Old Fire Station development, said: “It’s exciting to see this stunning development reach completion with the addition of the riverside townhouses.

“There are always plenty of sensitivities around giving a historic building a new lease of life, especially when it is central to the city, as the Old Fire Station has been in York.

“The Helmsley Group and London Ebor Developments have done a fantastic job and the attention to detail throughout these properties is second to none.”

Ed Stoyle, head of residential sales at Carter Jonas York, added: “The original features that have been sympathetically and elegantly retained throughout the development, coupled with the unrivalled views of both the river and Clifford’s Tower, make these homes a truly unique proposition for the York property market.

“The city is often cited as one of the UK’s best places to live, and this exceptional scheme is coveted by prospective buyers looking to benefit from the world-class amenities on offer and to live in a piece of the city’s history, in the heart of York.”
