Look inside this striking period property with development potential - up for £1.5m

An unusual opportunity to buy a company headquarters with great potential for residential development, has arisen in the heart of the Yorkshire Golden Triangle.

Boston Lodge is an elegant Grade II listed building in the village of Boston Spa, which dates from the late 18th century with later 19th century additions, and extends to some 7300 square feet.

Originally a substantial main home with ancillary cottages, the property has served as business premises over recent decades.

Tim Waring, property agent at GSC Grays, said: “Boston Lodge is ideally suited for residential purposes in Boston Spa, named by The Times as one of the Best Places to Live 2024.

"The Lodge offers the opportunity for development - horizontal split to flats or vertical split to a number of houses – and could also remain as a single house with the rear wing retained for home office use, flats or other income generation.”

The building is predominantly arranged over two stories with a rear wing which is over three floors.

It features an impressive, panelled reception hall with the main staircase leading to rooms of similar proportion on the first floor.

A secondary staircase connects across all floors including the rear wing.

The property is screened by mature trees and hedging to the front, with a double entrance off the High Street and courtyard parking to the rear.

Boston Spa, which is on the banks of the River Wharfe, offers a wide range of amenities including restaurants, bars, upmarket shops and a gin distillery along with an important branch of the British Library which is open to the public and is the home of the UK’s national newspaper collection.

The market town of Wetherby is nearby, and Boston Spa is situated in the heart of the ‘Golden Triangle’, bordered by Harrogate, Leeds and York, all with connections to the East Coast main rail line from London to Edinburgh.

Boston Spa is also close to the A64 and Junction 45 of the A1 (M) motorway, with Leeds Bradford Airport and its international links just 16 miles away.

Boston Lodge is currently on the market with GSC Grays Boroughbridge office with a guide price of offers over £1,500,000.
