NEW - A rare opportunity to acquire a detached building which may be suitable for a variety of uses subject to obtaining planning approval, close to the centre of the historic North Yorkshire Cathedral City of Ripon.

The building was formally used as ancillary accommodation for staff at the nearby hotel latterly being 3 separate dwellings which were vacated and have since fallen into a poor state of repair. Planning consent was granted back in 2021 to demolish the metal garage/store to the single storey property facing the road and replace with a new extension as well as make internal changes to the 2, two-storey properties facing the Ripon Rugby Club, but this has since lapsed. The property is adjacent to a vehicle repair garage and so potentially the future use of Spa Cottages could be commercial, residential or office premises dependent upon the thoughts of the local authorities. Interested parties are encouraged to make initial preliminary enquiries to North Yorkshire County Council prior to submitting a formal offer.

PLEASE NOTE HOWEVER THAT ONLY CASH AND UNCONDITIONAL OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED BY OUR CLIENTS IN THIS INSTANCE.

We have attached a set of architect’s drawings showing the initially proposed dwellings all of which are purely for consideration and for identification purposes only. The site plan indicates the proposed boundaries in red.

The property occupies a very prominent position within a short walk of the city centre, which provides an excellent range of daily shopping and recreational facilities together with highly regarded schools of most denominations. The fashionable conference town of Harrogate lies 12 miles to the south and the thriving city of Leeds some 30 miles to the south. There is easy access to the A1 (4 miles to the northeast), regular train services from York (30 miles to the south east) to both London’s Kings Cross as well as Edinburgh via Newcastle and national and international flights from Leeds/Bradford 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.
