Bathurst House is a historic building in the city of York, in England. Grade II* listed and standing at 86 Micklegate, part of the building dates to around 1727;[1] it was made into three storeys around 1822.[2] The iron railings at the front of the property are part of the listing.[2]

The property was built for Charles and Frances Bathurst.[1] Upon Frances' death, she was buried in the church of St Martin-cum-Gregory across the street. Her tombstone stated she was "a person of excellent accomplishments both of body and mind, and adorned the several stations of life she went through".[1]

From 1872 to 1879 it was used as offices for a District Goods Manager of the North Eastern Railway Company. Then it became the business premises of Grays, a musical instrument dealer.[3]

It became a hotel between 1911 and 1921, then York YWCA. The University of York owned it in the 1960s, before it became the home of Barron and Barron, chartered accountants,[1] having sold for £1 million in 2017.[4]
