5 bed detached house for sale

Skipton Road, Harrogate HG1

This spacious, extended home is ideal for growing families wanting more room to spread out without giving up easy access to town life. With plenty of flexible space, inside and out, it’s ready-made for family life, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying a quiet cup of tea in the conservatory after the school run.

Tucked away behind a gated front with parking for multiple cars and a handy shed, this detached property opens into a smart, welcoming space. At the heart of the home is a stylish modern kitchen-diner, perfect for weekday breakfasts, Sunday roasts, and everything in between. The layout flows easily into a bright lounge with a wood-burning stove – a proper cosy spot when the Yorkshire weather turns – and then into a generously sized conservatory, which really makes the most of the rear garden views. Whether it's used as a second sitting room, playroom, or even a bit of indoor gardening space in winter, it’s a brilliant bonus.

On the ground floor, there’s a proper double bedroom with its own en-suite shower room, making it ideal for older children, guests, or even a live-in relative. Upstairs are four further double bedrooms, all light and airy with enough space for homework desks, wardrobes and sleepovers. The family bathroom has a clean white suite with a p-shaped bath and shower over – great for bath time chaos or a long soak after a busy day. Outside, the rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and includes a greenhouse for those green-fingered types and a shed for stashing everything from lawnmowers to scooters. It’s a secure, low-maintenance space where kids can run wild while you relax with a brew – or something stronger.

The location is spot-on for families. You're not far from the centre of Harrogate, a town that manages to be posh without being pretentious. There are good schools close by, including both primary and secondary options with solid reputations. Local shops, parks, and cafes are all within easy reach, and the train station isn’t far if you’re heading into Leeds or York for work – or shopping. Regular buses run up and down Skipton Road too, which makes getting around a doddle. All in all, it’s a home that offers space, practicality and a friendly neighbourhood vibe – with Harrogate’s charm right on your doorstep.
