Steeped in local history, Apartment 5 occupies part of Gascoigne House, a Grade II listed sandstone building in the heart of Harrogate. The apartment provides beautifully presented duplex accommodation, combining remarkable period character with stylish contemporary finishes.

The accommodation is entered via a welcoming reception hall, which leads through to the spectacular open-plan kitchen and dining room. This remarkable space forms the heart of the home, featuring double-height vaulted ceilings with exposed timber beams and a magnificent original cast-iron range set within an impressive stone fireplace. These character features are complemented by a sleek contemporary kitchen fitted with high-gloss cabinetry, stone work surfaces and integrated appliances, while wooden flooring adds warmth throughout. The room provides ample space for both dining and entertaining. Rising from the kitchen area, a staircase with a glass balustrade leads to a mezzanine-level sitting room, creating an attractive additional reception area overlooking the principal living space below.

There are two generously sized double bedrooms, both enjoying traditional sash windows and neutral décor. Each benefits from its own en suite bath or shower room, finished in a contemporary style. A separate cloakroom off the entrance hall provides further convenience for guests.

Externally, Gascoigne House presents an attractive and imposing sandstone façade, reflecting the building's historic origins. To the rear, residents have access to a block-paved courtyard where the apartment benefits from an allocated parking space, a valuable feature in such a central Harrogate location.
