The Harrogate town centre brief
For a townhouse or upper-floor project in central or High Harrogate, establish the relationship between the proposed rooms, retained details and shared access. A substantial floor area does not guarantee a simple fit-out. The existing stairs, service routes and frontage should inform the layout from the outset.
Preparation guidance, not a survey of your property. The location photograph shows the area; it is not evidence of work by ATR.
