West End Avenue, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, HG2

This attractive four bedroom period home conveniently located within the sought after "West End Park" neighbourhood has been tastefully upgraded, enlarged and remodelled now providing a stylish arrangement of family accommodation within walking distance of The Oval Gardens, The Stray and Harrogate town centre.

With handsome dressed stone elevations under a slate roof, gas fired heating, sash windows and tasteful interior design this excellent period home with mid-19th Century origins will appeal to a wide cross section of buyers, including young families seeking ease of access to an outstanding choice of schools for all age groups and those buyers now hoping to downsize without sacrificing on room proportions and convenience for the town centre and local parks.

Our clients have overseen a thoughtfully planned programme of improvements, remodelling and extension of the original two storey layout now providing high quality accommodation over three floors amounting to over 1750 sqft; tastefully presented throughout with many period features.

A welcoming reception hall serves an elegant sitting room with a front bay window and a versatile dining / family room ideal for relaxation and entertaining. Almost 18ft in length the kitchen with a generous provision of work surfaces, fitted cabinets and integrated appliances also has space for a breakfast table and opens directly onto enclosed rear courtyard style gardens.

From the hallway with its useful storage cupboard a staircase with period balustrade leads to the split level first floor landing off which lie two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and a further single family bedroom ( also an ideal home office base). The front bedrooms enjoy delightful aspects towards the tree-lined avenue whilst the rear overlooks a quiet lane and Harrogate Grammar School's sports fields. Off the lower landing level is a useful laundry room and a stylish house bathroom with a high quality white suite and a walk-in shower enclosure.

Finally at second floor level there is a superb principal suite comprising a double bedroom with adjoining shower room and cleverly designed storage / display shelving - this room is also an ideal space for the growing teenager and guests.

Extreme care and attention has been paid to the landscaping of front and rear garden areas which are planned with ease of maintenance in mind; the former featuring a variety of shrubs and plants bounded by wrought iron fencing. The rear courtyard garden enjoys a westerly aspect with a high level of privacy and the additional comfort of a secure store for bikes and equipment and a greenhouse. The rear lane, beyond which lies Harrogate Grammar School's sports field, is adopted by the Local Authority and its narrow nature ensures that this forms a convivial amenity area for the residents of these two terraces; engendering a true community feel.

This is a prime central location within a Conservation Area. Buyers with young families couldn’t hope for a better choice of local schools at all age groups and for dog owners the walks available in The Oval Gardens, on the Stray and in the nearby Pinewoods provide many options. Harrogate town centre, the railway and bus station and an excellent range of shops and restaurants lie a gentle stroll across the Stray and at the end of West End Avenue Harrogate Cricket Club is a popular sports ground.
