A FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE A POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT SITE - arguably one of the last and best in the Duchy area, extending to about ½ an acre and occupying a lovely position in this highly sought after residential neighbourhood.

Arguably one of the last and best potential building plots in the Duchy area.

This is a unique opportunity to acquire a ½ acre plot of land in a prime residential area – it is believed to be one of the last undeveloped parcels of land in the Duchy area.

This excellent level site is accessed off Rutland Drive and had planning consent granted for a substantial detached property in December 2017 – decision notice 17/04372/FUL – the consent lapsed in 2020. More recently, a planning application has been submitted seeking consent for a large detached family house on the site. The application is currently in the process of being validated.

The site occupies an enviable position in the prime Duchy residential area, close to the Valley Gardens and Pine Woods and within about ½ a mile of the town centre which offers a wide variety of shops, restaurants and recreational facilities. A number of highly regarded schools are within walking distance including Harrogate Ladies College, Highfield Prep School and Brackenfield School. For the commuter, there is easy access to the business centres of Leeds, Bradford and York, the national motorway network and Leeds/Bradford International Airport.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

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.
