RARE GEORGIAN PROPERTY WITH EXTENSIVE POTENTIAL LAUNCHED FOR SALE IN KNARESBOROUGH
Dacre Son and Hartley created on 3rd July 2026
One of Knaresborough’s most intriguing houses is now for sale, offering buyers the chance to restore and reimagine a substantial Grade II listed Georgian home, with up to six bedrooms, in a highly sought-after location.
Grove House, at 14 Boroughbridge Road, has been launched for sale by Dacre, Son & Hartley’s Knaresborough office with a guide price of £750,000 and is expected to attract interest from a wide range of buyers seeking a character property with significant potential.
Occupying a generous plot close to the centre of Knaresborough, the impressive period residence now requires comprehensive modernisation throughout but offers considerable scope to create a landmark family home. The property could also offer multi-generational living thanks to its flexible layout and existing self-contained annexe.
Nick Alcock, Senior Associate and Branch Manager at Dacre, Son & Hartley’s Knaresborough office, said: “This handsome Georgian home retains a wealth of original character and offers substantial accommodation arranged over several floors, with formal reception rooms, a large dining kitchen, cellar space and six bedrooms.”
Beyond the main house is a self-contained annexe comprising a snug, kitchen with dining area and a double bedroom with en-suite shower room, making it ideal for dependent relatives, older children or visiting guests. A further outbuilding, currently requiring complete renovation, offers additional potential for a variety of future uses, subject to obtaining any necessary planning permissions and consents.
Outside, the property enjoys a secluded setting behind wrought iron gates and benefits from extensive private gardens, ample off-street parking, a large garage and workshop, and additional storage buildings. The mature grounds provide a rare sense of privacy while remaining within easy reach of Knaresborough’s amenities, schools and transport links.
Nick added: “Grove House is a truly fascinating home that offers buyers the chance to create something very special. Whilst it needs modernising, the building retains tremendous character and flexibility, and we expect interest from a range of buyers including families, developers and those looking to create accommodation for multi-generational living.
“The combination of a Grade II listed Georgian residence, substantial gardens, a self-contained annexe and further development potential, subject to the necessary permissions, makes it a very exciting property.”
Grove House will be open to view by appointment only on Saturday 20th June from 11am – 1pm and on Tuesday 23rd June from 11am – 1pm.
