Overview
Property code: 86490

Situated right in the heart of the spa town of Harrogate, this 150-year-old former Victorian warehouse has been beautifully converted to create stunning accommodation for families and friends.

Formerly a Victorian joiner’s workshop and more recently an ironmonger, this fantastic, newly converted, detached warehouse property is located in the centre of the vibrant town of Harrogate. With an abundance of shops, bars, and restaurants straight from the doorstep, you will not be short of something to do. Explore the immaculate gardens, elegant architecture, and broad tree-lined boulevards of the town, or take a dip in the opulent Turkish Baths with their plunge pool. The stunning scenery of Nidderdale AONB (15 miles) and the Yorkshire Dales National Park (13 miles) are within a short drive, providing endless walks and cycle trails through beautiful countryside. For family days out, visit the magnificent natural formations at Brimham Rocks or the medieval ruins at Fountains Abbey, both just 10 miles away.

As you step into this unique property, you will be instantly wowed by the exposed brick walls, beamed ceilings, and a plethora of original features. Kick off your walking boots and hang up your coats by the door and venture upstairs to the generous living space. A spacious lounge/diner provides the ideal place for all the family or group to relax, with comfortable sofas situated in front of a welcoming wood burner, there is also a built in fridge in a store unit within the lounge area. A large Smart TV adorns the wall, perfect for watching a movie on a rainy day. Gather around the stylish dining table and enjoy a home-cooked meal or open the bi-fold doors of the south-facing Juliet balcony and let in the summer air. On the ground floor is a well-equipped kitchen with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washer/dryer, and Dolce Gusto coffee machine. You will also find a cosy twin zip-and-link bedroom (which can be made into a super-king-size on request at the time of booking) and a shower room with shower and WC. Down a final flight of stairs to the lower ground floor are two further bedrooms - one super-king-size zip-and-link (which can be made up as twins on request) and one single. To complete this wonderful property is a bright and spacious family bathroom that benefits from a rainfall shower-over-the-bath and WC.

Perfect location & a garage which is very unusual for Harrogate. Owner really accommodating & helpful. The 2nd year we have stayed & it will always be our go-to whenever we stay in Harrogate. Spacious for 5 adults & everything you need. High standard of cleaning, very warm & cozy. Train & bus station 5 minute walk, used both (to Leeds & KnaresborouRead moregh), efficient & reliable. Caught the bus to knaresborough & did the scenic walk back to Harrogate (1hr 20mins). Highly recommend this property. Hide

A great little find in the centre of the town. We came for the knit and stitch show at the conference centre and also stayed last year. Great to have the heating full on as it was snowing outside. Nice comfy beds and a very clean apartment. The host was really helpful when we rang with a querie. We will be back!

A beautiful loft apartment in a super location to access the town centre, restaurants, bus and train stations. We used it as a base for a visit to the Great Yorkshire Show and it was perfect. Really thoughtfully finished throughout, comfortable nd very convenient to have a garage to park in as well.

We were 4 adults (but sleeps 5) & this has everything you need in a perfect location, a 2 minute walk to the town & station (5 mins).
