A substantial early-19th-century mixed-use property on Regent Parade, overlooking The Stray in central Harrogate. The building includes two ground-floor retail units (previously a bakery) with full-width shopfronts and a self-contained upper-floor flat accessed separately. Its prominent parade position offers strong pedestrian exposure and close proximity to town-centre amenities, transport links and conference destinations.
The retail accommodation extends to about 1,315 sq ft and the upper flat to approximately 1,068 sq ft, with a total available area around 2,383 sq ft. The flat has been vacant for many years and the whole property requires a comprehensive overhaul and refurbishment — presenting clear scope to enhance rental income and capital value after works. The commercial kitchen area shows mid-20th-century industrial features and recorded roof damage, so targeted repair work will be needed.
This freehold, chain-free opportunity will suit investors or developers seeking a town-centre mixed-use asset with immediate retail presence and upper-floor residential potential. Factor in refurbishment costs and an uplift strategy to secure higher returns; the property’s location and layout offer flexibility for re-letting or conversion subject to consents. Note the town-centre setting means no private garden and the immediate outlook is onto Regent Parade/The Stray.
Buyers should also consider local context: the area records higher crime levels than average and the residential accommodation needs complete renovation. Professional surveys are recommended to confirm structural, roofing and services condition before committing.
