Set on sought-after Valley Drive, this two-bedroom duplex offers a bright, modern living space within easy reach of Harrogate town centre. The open-plan living and kitchen area creates a sociable heart for daily life and entertaining, while integrated appliances and contemporary fittings keep things low-maintenance. The main bedroom includes an en-suite; a second bedroom and a separate bathroom make the layout practical for sharers or a small family.
Practical strengths include a private allocated parking space and a secure intercom entry. The building dates from the late 1990s/early 2000s and benefits from double glazing; a long lease (circa 974 years) and a small ground rent (£25) reduce long-term ownership worries. Broadband and mobile signals are strong and local amenities, parks and well-regarded schools are within easy reach, making the flat convenient for everyday life.
Buyers should note a few clear trade-offs. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas or a communal system, which may affect running costs. The internal spiral staircase is a striking feature but can be awkward for mobility, children or moving large items. Council tax is rated above average for the area. Overall the apartment offers a compact, low-upkeep base with good location and clear potential for a buyer seeking town-centre convenience.
