This Grade II listed mid-terrace townhouse occupies a large plot in the heart of Knaresborough, moments from the market square and with rear views of the castle. The house blends period character — sash windows, exposed beams and a stone fireplace with log burner — and a modern kitchen and utility area for practical family living. Accommodation is arranged over three main floors with a useful basement office/work area.
The property is freehold with mains gas central heating, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Local amenities, shops, cafes and good primary and secondary schools are all within easy walking distance, making the location exceptionally convenient for everyday life. Council tax is described as cheap which helps running costs.
Important practical points: the house is Grade II listed so alterations will be restricted and may cause delay or extra cost. The original stone walls are assumed uninsulated and the house may require sensitive upgrading to improve thermal performance. There is only one bathroom serving three bedrooms and the town-centre location sits within a higher-crime area — consider security and suitability if you require a quieter setting.
This is a strong choice for buyers seeking character, central convenience and scope for sympathetic improvement rather than a modern, low-maintenance turnkey home. Investors, city commuters and buyers wanting a quintessential historic property with castle views will appreciate the setting; buyers wanting large gardens or extensive modernisation without listed constraints should take note of the limitations.
