Flat 1 is a three-bedroom property in Harrogate (HG1 5ED). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. At 61 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (58–61 m²). Other recorded features include a basement. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
