Spacious period home backing onto playing fields — ideal for families and professionals.
Six bedrooms plus large top-floor principal with fitted wardrobes
Set across more than 3,300 sq ft, this handsome Victorian mid-terrace offers flexible six-bedroom living in a prime Harrogate location. Period details — high ceilings, bay windows, ornate cornicing and original fireplaces — create a warm, characterful interior paired with contemporary practicality such as a generous open-plan kitchen with AGA and direct garden access.
The house backs onto Harrogate Grammar School playing fields, an unusually peaceful aspect for a property so close to the town centre. Ground-floor reception rooms are large and versatile, and the substantial top-floor principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and eaves storage. A large cellar provides significant storage or conversion potential subject to consent.
Buyers should note the property’s material realities: the EPC is rated D, double glazing was fitted before 2002, and the original stone walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation — improvements may be needed to upgrade energy efficiency. The rear plot is compact and landscaped with stone and gravel rather than extensive lawn, and council tax is higher than average.
This home will appeal to families and professionals who value space, period charm and an exceptional town-centre-with-green-space setting. It’s a strong proposition for those wanting immediate comfort with clear potential to improve energy performance and reuse attic or cellar areas to suit changing needs.
