It offers bespoke fitted cupboards, two new Samsung washing machines with add in feature and a new Samsung dryer, a Shaws of Darwin sink, and an industrial-style clothes rail. Overhead units, accessed by a solid Oak ladder, provide further ingenious storage solutions.

The Upper Level - The second floor continues to impress with three further super king bedrooms and a dedicated office, which has been wired to allow for a sixth bedroom. One of these bedrooms includes its own stylish ensuite with a walk-in shower. A spacious, fully-tiled house bathroom serves the remaining rooms, featuring a classic roll-top bath, a separate walk-in shower, WC, and hand basin, completing the luxurious accommodations.

The Garden Apartment - On the lower ground floor lies an entirely separate, self-contained two-bedroom apartment. This versatile space, with its own open-plan living kitchen, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms, presents a fantastic opportunity for generating income via Airbnb or as a private 'granny annex' for extended family.

Outdoor Living Space - To the rear of the property, a fully enclosed, low-maintenance paved garden with a flower bed offers a private space for relaxation. The fully insulated and larger garage, equipped with power and windows, holds exciting potential to be converted into a state-of-the-art home gym, office, or creative studio space.

An Unbeatable Location - This home’s location is simply superb. Situated in a fantastic position that offers the best of both worlds, you are moments away from the vibrant shops, delis, and restaurants of Cold Bath Road, yet also a short, pleasant stroll from Harrogate's town centre. Excellent transport links provide easy access to York, Leeds, and London.
