Prominently situated on Museum Street, with peerless views over the River Ouse, River House has been a distinguished address since the 1860s.
As the historic home of The Yorkshire Club, this Grade II listed building holds a special place in the city’s landscape. We saw the opportunity to sensitively refurbish this landmark, preserving its unique character while preparing it for a new generation of tenants, ensuring its continued vibrancy in the heart of York.
A Considered Refurbishment
Our approach was focused on enhancing the building’s inherent quality, ensuring it met the needs of modern, high-calibre occupiers.
Respecting Heritage: We undertook a careful and considered refurbishment of the entire building, honouring its Grade II listed status and preserving the historic details that make it unique.
Modern Functionality: The refurbishment sympathetically upgraded the interior spaces, creating a premium environment ready to welcome leading contemporary businesses.
Following its refurbishment in 2017, River House is now fully occupied by the renowned brands Pizza Express and Savills.
The project is a clear demonstration of our commitment to being a guardian of significant buildings, successfully transforming a piece of York’s history into a thriving commercial destination that enhances this prestigious location.
