General comments
The building was the former canal warehouse and Wharf manager’s house now part of the Canal Saw Mills commercial complex, conveniently located just south of the City centre. As indicated on the attached site plan, the property also owns the strip of garden along Canal Road down the southern bank of the Canal itself and the trees on this land have preservation orders on them. Pedestrian access only will be provided across the courtyard immediately in front of the building.
The property occupies a very pleasant and discreet setting 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 to London Kings Cross and national and international flights from Leeds/Bradford airport.
