The property provides excellent scope to extend and reconfigure, subject to the necessary permissions, allowing buyers the opportunity to tailor the space to suit their needs and create a bespoke family home.
With its desirable setting and strong potential, this is an ideal purchase for those seeking a long-term family home with room to grow.
Location Situated in the heart of the Wharfe Valley, with the famous Ilkley Moor to the south and the River Wharfe to the north, Ilkley is widely regarded as an ideal base for Leeds and Bradford commuters.
The town was named The Sunday Times Best Place to Live in the UK 2022 and has since been awarded regional winner status in 2025, recognised for its excellent schools, vibrant independent shops and restaurants, strong community spirit, and superb transport links.
This property is located in a peaceful and highly regarded residential area, close to local amenities, well-regarded schools, and rail connections.
This attractive and spacious detached family home sits within a generous, beautifully maintained plot, surrounded by mature gardens that provide a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity.
Offering versatile living accommodation, four generous bedrooms, a stylish recently fitted kitchen, and excellent scope to extend (subject to the necessary permissions), this is a rare opportunity to acquire a long-term family home in an idyllic setting.
Ground floor The property is entered via an entrance porch leading into a light, airy, and welcoming hallway. A cloakroom with WC and wash basin is conveniently positioned off the hall.
The main sitting room is a bright dual-aspect space, featuring a bay window to the front and a floor-to-ceiling window to the rear overlooking the garden.
A fitted fireplace with stone surround provides an attractive focal point, and double doors lead through to the dining room.
The dining room enjoys views over the rear garden and offers flexible use as a formal dining space or additional reception room.
The recently fitted kitchen is beautifully presented, featuring modern wall and base units, ample work surfaces, space for an oven and hob with extractor, an inset sink beneath a rear-facing window, and a useful built-in pantry cupboard.
A rear porch, accessed from the kitchen, provides valuable additional space and could easily be used as a utility area, with a door leading out to the garden.
Completing the ground floor is a study, ideal for home working, with a window overlooking the front of the property.
First floor The first-floor landing is light and spacious, with a window over the staircase allowing plenty of natural light and access to all bedrooms and the house bathroom.
The principal bedroom is a generous double room positioned at the front of the property, enjoying superb views towards Ilkley Moor and overlooking the quiet cul-de-sac.
Bedroom two is a further spacious double room with views over the rear garden.
Bedrooms three and four are both well-proportioned and presented, offering flexible accommodation for family members, guests, or home working.
The recently installed house bathroom is stylishly appointed with a three-piece suite, including a panelled bath, WC, and floating vanity unit with wash basin, complemented by a frosted rear window.
Outside The property benefits from an integral double garage, offering excellent space for vehicles, storage, or workshop use, complete with power, lighting, and internal access via the rear porch.
To the front, a driveway provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles, framed by established hedging, planted borders, and flagged pathways that enhance the home’s kerb appeal.
The rear garden is a particular highlight - beautifully maintained, private, and generous in size, with lawned areas, mature hedging, colourful flowerbeds, and well-tended planting throughout.
Beyond the main garden lies a substantial additional section of land, extending the overall plot and offering exciting potential to extend the property further (subject to planning permissions) without compromising outdoor space.
A fitted summerhouse provides a peaceful spot to relax and enjoy the tranquil surroundings.
