A Private Residence of Character and Potential

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a unique four-bedroom detached residence, set in an enviable position with commanding views towards Knaresborough. Rarely available, this distinguished 1920s home is offered to the market for the first time in over four decades.

The property retains a wealth of original period detail, whilst presenting discerning purchasers with the scope to further refine, modernise, and extend to create a residence of rare calibre.

A recent planning application (Ref: 25/01638/ful) has been permitted for a two-storey rear extension and detached double garage to the front, with full documentation available for review.

The house is approached through an impressive reception hall, setting the tone for the accommodation within. The ground floor offers a bay-fronted sitting room, a formal dining room, a family kitchen with utility, a ground floor shower room, and an adaptable dining/snug area.

The first floor is arranged around a traditional landing and hosts four generously proportioned bedrooms, including a principal suite with a private balcony commanding uninterrupted rural vistas. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the upper accommodation.

Externally, the property is approached via a private driveway with ample parking provision and access to a detached garage. The gardens are a particular feature, with expansive lawns, mature planting, orchard trees, and a secluded paved terrace, all designed to deliver both privacy and an elegant setting for outdoor living.

The location offers the rare balance of convenience and seclusion-on the fringe of Knaresborough yet within walking distance of the historic town centre, riverside walks, and local amenities including a charming public house, garden centre, and café. Excellent connectivity is assured, with swift access to Harrogate, Leeds, and the A1(M).
