Self-build site · Harrogate
Scotton, Harrogate
An application has been approved for up to five self-build plots on land off Ripley Road, Scotton, near Knaresborough. The site is well located on the edge of the village, close to existing homes and within easy reach of public transport and local services. There is significant demand for self-build housing in the Harrogate area, with a recognised shortfall in available plots. This proposal is intended to help meet that need by creating opportunities for individuals or families to design and build homes that suit their own requirements. Designs at Planning - with potential marketing early 2027. Please register your interest now.
