A handsome double fronted Grade II listed townhouse, featuring stunning interiors and a separate cottage

Description

Britannia Lodge is a striking Grade ll listed, early Victorian townhouse occupying a prominent corner plot, less than half a mile from central Harrogate. This is one of Harrogate’s most admired townhouses, being of classic style and appointed to a very high level of specification. An exquisite well-proportioned four bedroom home with a detached three bedroom cottage above the double garage, all set within well tended landscaped gardens.

This beautiful accommodation is arranged over four floors and comprises four double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes by Clarity Arts in the majority and four bath/shower rooms, in addition to two elegant reception rooms including a through drawing room some 28 ft in length, a fully fitted bespoke library and adjacent home office.

On the lower ground floor, all under floor heated, there is an additional cosy reception room with access to the front garden via French doors and a fantastic living kitchen leading out to a sunny west facing terrace to the rear of the house. This impressive space offers an extensive range of bespoke cabinetry, granite work surfaces, a four oven Aga, quality integrated appliances, a large island unit and space for a large dining table. This is the ideal space for entertaining guests and family gatherings. There is also a generous utility room, boiler room and separate guest cloakroom on this self-contained floor.

In all an exceptional home with generous accommodation and arguably one of the finest townhouses in central Harrogate. A particular Highlight of Britannia Lodge is the attractive and predominantly lawned garden to the front of the property, with colourful herbaceous borders in addition to a paved seating area to the front of the lower ground floor.

The rear garden area is ideal for summer entertaining being predominantly terraced with a sunken patio area with pergola over. Double electric gates open to a block paved driveway leading to the double garaging within the separate detached cottage. This was constructed in the 1980’s in matching stone, a self contained property fronting York Road. York Mews provides an additional three bedrooms and is ideal as ancillary guest accommodation, or as a potential holiday/long term rental opportunity.

This excellent cottage offers stylish interiors with the spacious accommodation comprising a double bedroom and en suite shower room on the ground floor with two further double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, and a house bathroom on the first floor, as well as an open plan lounge/kitchen/diner.
