GENERAL COMMENTS

Pineheath is a substantial detached Duchy house which was originally constructed in the late 1890s and was formerly the home of Sir Dhunjibhoy and Lady Bomanji, shipping magnates, socialites and philanthropists who had strong links to Harrogate.

Pineheath occupies a lovely position towards the top end of Cornwall Road, in a highly desirable residential area, close to the Valley Gardens and Pine Woods. The town centre is within walking distance and provides a wide variety of shops and restaurants together with excellent transport connections further afield.
