This raised ground-floor flat occupies an enviable position directly opposite Harrogate’s Valley Gardens, offering bright open-plan living and two double bedrooms (one with en‑suite). The Victorian stone façade and bay window provide strong kerb appeal while the large living/kitchen space suits contemporary living, lock‑up‑and‑leave lifestyles or buy‑to‑let use.
Practical details are straightforward: the flat is leasehold with 102 years remaining, double glazing throughout and electric central heating via a boiler and radiators. Service charge and ground rent are modest at approximately £1,265 pa and £200 pa respectively; Council Tax is moderate (Band D). Flood risk is nil and broadband and mobile signals are reported good.
Buyers should note material running costs and potential upgrade work: heating is electric which can be costlier than gas, and the building’s original sandstone/limestone walls are assumed to have no insulation (possible retrofit costs). Access is via a formal stepped communal entrance, which may affect mobility and deliveries. There is no private garden and parking is on-street.
Overall this property suits purchasers seeking a well‑located, characterful two‑bed near Harrogate town centre — attractive to first‑time buyers wanting a ready-made home and investors seeking reliable rental demand. Factor in potential energy upgrades and communal maintenance when comparing value.
