This recently improved and extended five-bedroom semi-detached house offers flexible, light-filled accommodation over three floors with private rear gardens and flagged patios. The principal second-floor bedroom includes fitted wardrobes, eaves storage and a modern en‑suite; four further bedrooms and a contemporary house bathroom sit on the lower floors. The kitchen features integrated appliances, granite worktops and tiled floors, and the property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and an EPC rating of C.
The location suits families who need good local schools and transport links: a regular bus route serves the town, and Harrogate train station is about 1.5 miles away. There is driveway parking to the front and a decent plot size for outdoor living or patio furniture. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are both good, and council tax is described as affordable.
Buyers should note material area factors: the property sits in a very deprived, higher-crime neighbourhood and the wider area classification indicates economic hardship. Construction details indicate cavity walls with no known insulation (assumed), and the double-glazing install date is unknown — buyers may wish to confirm insulation and glazing condition before committing. Overall size is described as small despite the five bedrooms, so room proportions and circulation should be checked in person.
This home offers modern finishes and immediate move-in potential, with scope for buyers to personalise or upgrade thermal performance. It could suit a growing family seeking good local schools and transport, or an investor targeting rental demand in a well-connected town location — provided they consider the local socio-economic context.
