Octavia House is the last remaining detached family house on Beech Grove and offers exceptional potential to reconfigure the accommodation to suit a purchaser's requirements. This prestigious property has accommodation over four floors with stunning features throughout. The property is currently arranged as a three-storey house with a top-floor penthouse apartment.

Outside
Set within enclosed gardens, the property has a large lawn to the front with flower borders and mature boundary hedging. There are double electric opening gates to a large, hard-standing driveway and parking area.

Planning (Planning reference: 20/02673/FUL)
Planning consent has been approved for the demolition of an external staircase and construction of a two-storey extension to form three self-contained apartments with lift access and further excavation of the lower ground floor to create further accommodation. This gives the opportunity to create further accommodation as one dwelling, with light wells and windows to the lower ground floor, subject to some changes to the existing consent.


Situation
Harrogate is a beautiful Spa town which has been crowned the happiest place to live in Britain several times, with its healing mineral waters, excellent schools, beautiful parks including the Stray, which the house overlooks and the famous Bettys Café Tea Room.

Harrogate is a tourist destination and its visitor attractions include RHS Harlow Carr Gardens, the Royal Hall and the Harrogate International Centre. It is close to the North Yorkshire Moors and the Dales.

The town centre offers an excellent and varied range of shopping and recreational facilities. There is a selection of well-regarded schools nearby, including the co-educational independent school Ashville College and Harrogate Ladies College within the Duchy, as well as excellent state schools, including Harrogate Grammar, Rossett, St Aidens, St John Fisher and Harrogate High School. The property is on the coveted Stray, overlooking green space, yet close to the town centre and giving easy access to the business centres of Leeds, Bradford and York.

For the commuter, there are excellent transport connections - the railway station connects with mainline stations in Leeds and York and provides frequent services to London Kings Cross and Edinburgh.

The A1(M) is within 9 miles to the east, and Leeds/Bradford Airport is 12 miles southwest.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
