4 bed detached house for sale

Wensley Road, Harrogate HG2

Offered to the market for the first time since the early 1980’s and available with no onward chain, this impressive four-bedroom 1930s red-brick detached home occupies a generous plot tucked away in the corner of a quiet, highly sought-after cul-de-sac on the favoured south side of Harrogate.

Now requiring some general modernisation, the property presents an exceptional opportunity for a buyer to extend and personalise the home to their own tastes and requirements (subject to the necessary consents). A well-stocked front garden and lengthy side driveway provide access to a detached single garage, ideal for storage. Inside, a large and welcoming entrance hall with a downstairs WC leads to two spacious bay-fronted reception rooms – a dual-aspect lounge with a period fireplace and a formal dining room with patio doors opening onto the rear garden. The fitted kitchen offers a range of units, a generous walk-in pantry, and a useful adjoining utility room.

To the first floor, a light-filled landing with storage gives access to three generously proportioned double bedrooms, a larger-than-average single bedroom, and a house bathroom alongside a separate shower room.

The wonderful rear garden extends to nearly a quarter of an acre and enjoys excellent privacy. Mature borders, colourful planting, separate vegetable and fruit growing area and a large central lawn create a superb outdoor space for gardening, entertaining, or relaxing in the sun throughout the day.
