NEW - A substantial and attractive country property providing excellent and recently renovated family accommodation, enjoying superb views over beautiful countryside, set in gardens and grounds extending to about an acre and situated within a 5 minute drive of Ilkley.

It is essential that this country property is viewed to fully appreciate everything that it has to offer, set within the highly desirable Middleton area, offering rural living with all the amenities of Ilkley only five minutes’ drive away.

The extended accommodation has been skilfully renovated in recent years to a particularly high standard and includes to the ground floor a welcoming entrance hall with steps leading to the first floor and a modern cloakroom. A large open-plan dining kitchen occupies the central part of the property giving access to the light and airy through living room, having bi-folding doors at both ends with magnificent views to the easterly aspect. To the northern end of the property is a rear vestibule giving access to the utility room and second reception room which provides a versatile space that could be used for a number of requirements, again benefitting from bi-fold doors and some splendid far-reaching views. Accessed via a short flight of stairs from the rear vestibule is the small converted barn which has an abundance of character and provides a cosy sitting room with feature fireplace and wood burning stove. This room has its own access to the outside via a stable door.

There are five double bedrooms on the first floor, the principal bedroom having a dressing room and en suite bathroom. All bedrooms enjoy stunning far reaching views and a luxury house bathroom completes the accommodation.

Outside, the property sits well, within approximately an acre of grounds including large areas laid to lawn, a duck pond and secluded gravelled courtyards. The private driveway accessed through electric gates runs centrally through the garden providing access to a large, level gravelled parking area which is more than adequate to provide parking for several vehicles and ample space for storage sheds.

Whilst enjoying all the benefits of a rural location, the property is situated just over a mile from the centre of Ilkley which provides an excellent range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, cafes and general amenities. Indeed Ilkley is considered an ideal base in the Wharfe valley countryside for commuters to Leeds/Bradford City centres to which regular commuter rail services are available from both Ilkley and Ben Rhydding stations. The town has a very wide range of sporting, recreational and cultural facilities and the Yorkshire Dales National Park is less than 6 miles away. There are pleasant walks to be enjoyed immediately on the doorstep, as well as through the nearby famous Middleton bluebell woods. Westville House Preparatory School is also nearby.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.
 
To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.
 
Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • You get more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • Brokers can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • Are typically easier to get in contact with, less bureaucratic.

However with your bank maybe able to:

  • Build off existing relationship (discounts if you have a checking/saving account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Perhaps more trustworthy, more accountable than a smaller shop
  • Lower interest rates in some cases
  • Ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

When it comes to making an offer on a property a bit of negotiation is to be expected, however don't offer so little that you end up in a lengthy negotiation process, as you might lose the property altogether if someone else makes a higher bid.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.
