Former Harrogate metal works site to be transformed into new homes

A computer-generated image of the townhouses at Mulgrave's Harrogate One.

The first images of eight new townhouses being built on a former metal works site in Harrogate have been released.

Mulgrave Properties is transforming the derelict former Franklyn Metal Works and Wrayways site off Franklin Road into a development called Harrogate One.

Construction began earlier this year, with the first properties now on sale and the first homes expected to be ready for occupation in October 2026.

The computer-generated images show traditional stone and slate exteriors, with features including bay windows designed to reflect the surrounding Harrogate Conservation Area.

The development will comprise one two-bedroom townhouse, five three-bedroom homes and two four-bedroom properties, arranged over two-and-a-half or three storeys.

Every home will be heated by an air source heat pump instead of a gas boiler. All but one will also come with parking and an electric vehicle charging point.

Debbie Foster, Sales Director for Mulgrave Properties, said:

“As these newly released images reveal, the eight townhouses at Harrogate One have been sensitively designed to reflect the character of existing buildings in the town’s beautiful conservation area.

"This is evident in the use of key architectural features such as bay windows as well as in the traditional stone and slate exteriors.

“However, when it comes to the interior, these homes will offer modern levels of energy efficiency, comfort and convenience.

"They all feature spacious open-plan designs ideal for contemporary lifestyles, while the three-storey layouts offer additional space and privacy for large families and when hosting guests.”

The homes will be within walking distance of Harrogate’s parks, cultural venues, independent shops, cafes and restaurants.

Debbie added:

“While the conservation area setting is a major draw in itself, what makes this a particularly sought-after location is the fact that residents will be within walking distance of Harrogate’s many attractions – from its parks and cultural venues to its independent shops, cafes and restaurants.”
