Summary - 117 FRANKLIN ROAD HARROGATE HG1 5EN
7 bed 5 bath Semi-Detached
Large period townhouse with modern kitchen, excellent location and conversion potential..
Seven bedrooms and five bathrooms across four floors
This handsome late‑Victorian, seven‑bedroom semi‑detached townhouse offers over 2,200 sq ft of flexible family space across four floors. Original features — high ceilings, sash windows, bay window and decorative cornicing — are balanced with contemporary updates, including a modern dining kitchen that floods with natural light. The house is chain free and set in a sought‑after Harrogate HG1 location within walking distance of the town centre, parks and well‑regarded schools.
Layout suits a large or multi‑generational family: four principal storeys plus attic, five bathrooms (four en‑suite) and rooms that can double as reception or bedroom space. The lower‑ground store rooms present realistic potential for conversion to additional accommodation subject to planning and building control consents. A courtyard garden wraps to the front with mature planting, offering privacy and kerb appeal in an otherwise urban setting.
Practical points to note: the property is a period terrace and, while well presented, retains the typical quirks of an older home — multiple staircases and floors may prove restrictive for limited mobility. Council tax is high, and any purchaser planning to convert the lower‑ground spaces or carry out major structural changes should allow for consent and renovation costs. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent and the area records low crime and an affluent local profile.
Overall this is a spacious, characterful family home with immediate move‑in potential and clear upside for buyers willing to invest in sympathetic modernisation or internal reconfiguration.
