David Moor Building Surveyors, Harrogate

Surrounded by the stunning North Yorkshire Moors and only a stone’s throw away from the cities of York and Leeds, Harrogate continues to be popular with both its residents and visitors. Perhaps most famous for its many natural springs, Harrogate’s reputation for being a spa town draws tourists from many different destinations.

Originally divided by the boroughs of High Harrogate and Low Harrogate, it wasn’t until William Slingsby discovered iron and sulphur deposits in the water that the town became unified in around 1571. Harrogate has a wealth of contrasting architecture and the original Tewit Well can still be seen and visited, located on Harrogate’s grass land known as the stray. Other famous architectural sites include the Royal Pump Room that as its name suggests, sits directly above one of the famous Wells.

As with many towns that have grown through the centuries, Harrogate now boasts a wealth of well-preserved buildings, including rows of popular Victorian terraces. In contrast to the original properties, new build areas have been added, such as Jennyfields which offer increased housing and property opportunities.

With a strong sense of community, a busy and accessible town centre and a vibrant, exciting nightlife, properties in Harrogate are in seemingly constant demand. Making sure you’re getting value for money is important and engaging the help of David Moor, surveyors in Harrogate will ensure you have the right advice to hand in order to make the right housing purchase.
