A well-proportioned three-bedroom terraced house on Hampsthwaite Road, arranged over two floors and overlooking a large communal green. The home offers practical family accommodation with a spacious L-shaped dining kitchen and a comfortably sized sitting room. Gas central heating and sealed-unit double glazing provide basic comfort while the generous 945 sq ft layout suits families or buyers seeking flexible space.
The property requires cosmetic updating — the kitchen dates from the 1980s and would benefit from modernisation. The building is a mid-20th-century system-built end-terrace with assumed lack of wall insulation; buyers should note potential energy-efficiency improvements and maintenance work. The lease is long (approximately 958–960 years remaining) but the property carries a ground rent and service charge totalling about £107 per month (£1,284 pa).
Location is a key asset: less than a mile from Harrogate town centre, close to several good schools, leisure facilities including The Hydro swimming pool, and easy road and rail links. A paved rear patio and front outlook onto communal green space add outdoor appeal. Broadband and mobile coverage are strong, and the neighbourhood is affluent with low crime — attractive for families or investors seeking steady rental demand.
Overall this is a comfortable, well-located family home with clear potential for value growth after sympathetic modernisation. Buyers should budget for kitchen upgrades, possible insulation improvements and ongoing leasehold service charges when assessing affordability.
