Full Description
Beechwood House is one of several Victorian villas built along Fulford Road between 1867 - 1871. Originally owned by Richard Jackson, a wool merchant and farmer from Cawood, it later became the residence of a successful provision merchant, Isaac Poad during the late 19th/early 20th centuries. Poad’s stable and coach house was also situated along Fulford Road and the stone arcade he had salvaged from the York Theatre Royal is also included on this list. Isaac Poad’s seed and grain business still exists today as Isaac Poad & Sons Ltd. The Victorian villa is the furthest south of the series of villas along Fulford Road and is almost square in shape. The front elevation has a double bay window facing the road and a further bay window and entrance facing the south. Tower Vets are the current occupants of the house, and the house is aesthetically pleasing.
