Plans have been lodged to create 11 new apartments on Parliament Terrace in Harrogate town centre.

ATC Properties Ltd has submitted the plans to Harrogate Borough Council to convert Parliament House into one-bedroom apartments and two ground floor commercial units.

The building is currently occupied by a gym and Harrogate Wines, which is in the two-storey unit next to it.

The developer plans to convert the first floor retail space and first and second floor gym to form 11 one-bedroom apartments.

It would also see the existing shop units on Montpellier Walk reconfigured to provide enlarged trading space and new frontages.

As part of the plan, the flats would come with double bedroom ensuite and open plan kitchen, dining and living room.

The apartments would be aimed at young professionals, post-graduates and key workers, according to the proposal.

The developer said in its plans:

“The proposed apartments have been designed specifically for young professionals and key workers seeking to access the property market and will therefore provide affordable, inclusive and accessible accommodation.”


It added that the reconfiguration of the ground floor commercial units and new accommodation would help “refurbish a prominent building of poor architectural quality”.

Harrogate Borough Council will make a decision on the plan at a later date.
