The vale of York is a place of true contrasts: from the thriving city of York, to the quiet outlying villages that hide an altogether more tranquil lifestyle. A city with historic roots and heritage, York is a thriving centre for business and tourism. Residents enjoy a high quality of life, with an extensive range of excellent local amenities. Just a few minutes drive from the city centre, you'll find the open countryside for which North Yorkshire is renowned, with nearby villages providing the ideal setting for Hogg's distinctive homes. Within easy reach of the Dales & Yorkshire moors, but also with excellent local transport facilities, from fast rail links to a good road network.
Professor Mark Stephens, assistant director of the Centre for Housing Policy at the University of York, said: "I think there are two sets of explanations for rising house prices. The first are real, tangible factors, like employment growth, population growth and improved transport links."
"The second set of factors is related to expectations. If people expect house prices to go up in an area, they are more likely to but into that area. This pushes prices up, and the expected price increases become self-fuelling."
York's housing market would benefit from the expected expansion of the university, and the prospect of improved transport links to London.
For more than 35 years, few companies have continued to display such a proud Yorkshire heritage as York-based HOGG THE BUILDER.
The Company was founded by Mike Hogg in 1968. The care with which each property is designed and built is surpassed only by the enthusiasm of the purchasers.
The ancient village of Bubwith lies on the east bank of the River Derwent in the Vale of York.

Further shopping facilities can be found in the market town of Selby (7 miles away) and the city of York (12 miles away).
All of the above properties include landscaped gardens, all carpets, all curtains, all light fittings.
