Outside


One of the property’s most surprising features is the size of its garden.

Rarely do homes within such close proximity to Harrogate town centre offer outside space of this scale. To the rear, a raised terrace provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, whilst steps lead down to an attractive lawned garden bordered by mature planting and established landscaping.

The gardens offer a wonderful degree of privacy and create an attractive backdrop to the house throughout the year. A secluded seating area provides a peaceful retreat away from the main entertaining spaces, whilst the lawn offers ample room for families and outdoor enjoyment.

To the rear boundary stands a substantial stone-built garage complete with power and lighting, together with a useful adjoining store. The garage provides valuable secure parking and storage whilst also offering future potential for electric vehicle charging.

The combination of private gardens, generous outdoor entertaining space and garaging is rarely found within such a central Harrogate location.
