Description

This spacious three-bedroom semi-detached residence, measuring 960 sqft, is available without any onward chain and is situated in a desirable area on the eastern periphery of Harrogate. The property features generous rear gardens that not only provide ample outdoor space but also present a significant opportunity for modernization and potential expansion (subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions). The home exhibits traditional semi-detached characteristics and includes gas central heating along with double glazing throughout. Inside, an entrance vestibule opens into a reception hallway leading to a large through lounge and dining area that boasts a wood-burning stove, enhancing its appeal. This layout flows nicely into a conservatory, while the kitchen connects seamlessly to the conservatory as well. Upstairs, you will find two well-sized double bedrooms alongside a third versatile bedroom that can serve as a family room or study, all conveniently serviced by a house shower room. Although the interior requires updating, there is notable potential for creative enhancements reflective of the extensions seen in neighboring properties. The front of the home offers gated off-road parking for convenience, while side access leads to exceptionally long rear gardens that come with a substantial garden store - perfect for those with gardening ambitions or families seeking expansive outdoor spaces. This location is consistently favored by families due to its proximity to transport links leading into Harrogate town center, Leeds, and York. Local amenities are readily accessible on Starbeck High Street along with an excellent selection of schools nearby.
