Large chain-free apartment, close to transport and the Stray — requires updating and lease attention.
Chain free two-bedroom duplex apartment, approx. 1,170 sq ft
Bright, spacious two-bedroom duplex apartment above a parade of shops on Knaresborough Road offering clear rental or owner-occupier potential in a convenient Harrogate location. The accommodation extends over two floors with a large living room, fitted kitchen, two bathrooms (ensuite plus second-floor shower room), eaves storage and useful built-in cupboards. It faces the Stray and Harrogate Hospital with bus stops directly outside and Starbeck station about 1.5 miles away.
The property is sold chain free and can be sub-let (pets allowed), which supports buy-to-let prospects. At approximately 1,170 sq ft, the apartment is unusually large for a two-bedroom town-centre conversion and benefits from double glazing and gas central heating. Daytime on-street parking is available with council permits; overnight space can be used on the shop forecourt.
Important matters you should know: the lease has 75 years remaining which is likely to restrict mortgage options and may deter some lenders; interested buyers should obtain early mortgage advice. The flat requires some modernisation (1980s kitchen and dated finishes), so buyers should allow for renovation costs. The location records a higher-than-average local crime level, which may affect tenant demand or resale perceptions.
For an investor prepared to address cosmetic updating and the lease position, this apartment offers size, convenience and immediate rental eligibility. For an owner-occupier, the property is a roomy, well-located home but requires work and careful mortgage checks because of the lease length.
