Granby Meadows

Development Overview

Granby Meadows is a new build development by Redrow Homes, situated on Sanders Walk, off Claro Road, in the highly sought-after spa town of Harrogate, North Yorkshire (HG1 4AG). The development comprises a collection of 95 high-quality residences, with a mix of one, two, three, and four-bedroom homes, including terraced, semi-detached, and detached styles.

Redrow, a highly reputable national housebuilder, has consistently achieved the top Five-Star rating for customer satisfaction from the Home Builders Federation (HBF) for multiple consecutive years, based on a survey where over 95% of customers stated they would recommend the company. The development's architectural style is heavily influenced by the 'Heritage Collection,' which draws inspiration from Arts and Crafts architecture, pairing traditional exteriors with contemporary, high-specification interiors.

Property Details

Granby Meadows offers a varied product mix suitable for first-time buyers, downsizers, and families. Two-bedroom styles include the 'Buxton' and 'Bakewell' designs, while larger detached properties encompass three and four-bedroom layouts such as 'The Warwick,' 'Amberley,' 'Letchworth II,' and 'Cambridge.' The four-bedroom 'Harlech' detached home, for example, features a roomy front-facing lounge, a separate family room, an airy, well-equipped kitchen, and a dedicated utility room to keep laundry piles separate from living areas.

Several homes are also from Redrow’s ‘Lifestyle’ range, designed with fewer bedrooms than standard for increased individual room sizes, with each often benefiting from its own en-suite. Standard internal specifications typically include open-plan kitchen/dining spaces, luxurious family bathrooms, and a 10-year warranty, with specific plots benefiting from incentives such as integrated flooring, chrome downlighters, and turf to the garden.

Location Benefits

The location offers excellent connectivity for commuters and access to local amenities. Harrogate railway station is located nearby, providing direct train services to key regional cities: approximately 35 minutes to Leeds and just under 40 minutes to York. For road travel, Leeds Bradford Airport is approximately 25–35 minutes away by car. Local bus routes 1A, 1B, 36, and 7 service the Claro Road area, with Route 36 offering a frequent, high-quality service to Ripon and Leeds.

Essential local amenities are close at hand, including a Morrisons Daily on King Edward Drive (HG1 4HL), the Asda Harrogate Superstore on Bower Road, and a large Sainsbury’s Superstore on Wetherby Road. The development is within easy reach of highly-regarded primary schools, including St Robert's Catholic Primary School (HG1 4AP, 'Good' Ofsted) and the 'Outstanding' rated Western Primary School (HG2 0NA). Residents also benefit from immediate proximity to The Stray, a 200-acre tract of protected parkland, enhanced with new footpath and cycling links connecting it to the area.

Practical Information

Initial pricing for new build homes at Granby Meadows ranged from approximately £289,950 to £684,950. As of early 2024, only a few plots, such as the four-bedroom 'Harlech' at £525,000, were available for immediate reservation with move-in dates confirmed for Spring 2024. The development includes a 40% provision of affordable housing. Due to the development’s maturity, prospective buyers should contact the developer, Redrow Homes, directly for the most current price list, available plots, and to arrange an on-site viewing of any remaining show homes or the latest construction phase.
