A handsome Grade II listed detached Georgian property providing spacious accommodation which is now in need of some updating but offering significant potential, together with a lovely walled garden, occupying a superb position within a stone's throw of the City centre.

9 Park Street occupies a convenient position within a short walk of the city centre which provides an excellent and varied range of everyday shopping facilities. There are many other recreational facilities together with one of the most highly regarded grammar schools in the area. It is well placed for easy access to Harrogate which lies 12 miles to the south and Leeds some 30 miles to the south. There is easy access to the A1(M) (5 miles to the north east), regular train services from York and Northallerton to London’s Kings Cross and national and international flights from both Leeds/Bradford and Teesside airports.

9 Park Street is a classic Grade II listed Georgian property, dating from the late 17th/early 18th Century and extended in the mid 1850s with the addition of two bays and a section at the back. The house has a fascinating and well documented history, a copy of which is available on request. A particular feature of this lovely property is the secret original walled garden which lies to the rear – a rare attribute for a property situated so close to the city centre and which really has to be seen to be fully appreciated.

The spacious accommodation is arranged over three floors and whilst in need of some modernisation, offers a wonderful opportunity. On the ground floor is a central hall, cloakroom, three reception rooms, breakfast kitchen, a couple of storage cellars and a utility room, which is located at the back of the garage. The bedroom accommodation is arranged over the first and second floors and includes seven bedrooms in total – two have en suite shower rooms, there are a further two bathrooms and a shower room together with a box/store room and loft storage on the second floor.

Outside, there is a garage providing off street parking and a pathway which leads down the side of the house to the rear. There is a useful outbuilding which is currently utilised as a workshop together with a lovely walled garden which is principally lawned and has a vegetable garden and a couple of greenhouses.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
