An exciting opportunity to acquire one of these much admired recently built townhouses, offering incredibly flexible accommodation planned over four floors with scope for up to five bedrooms or three reception areas. Impressive principal bedroom suite with balcony off. All of this just a short walk from the moor and Ilkley Grammar School, and equally well placed for central amenities and the railway station too.

This four storey townhouse forms part of a much acclaimed small development, discreetly positioned within the former grounds of the Craiglands Hotel. The accommodation enjoys a mix of contemporary design, a comprehensive specification and a good degree of flexibility – meaning the property could appeal to buyers across a broad age group – from those with younger families to couples seeking a well positioned home within this incredibly popular town.

Entered through a spacious reception hall, the ground floor is home to a full width garden room / guest bedroom which has the advantage of bi-fold doors opening on to the south facing rear garden, as well as a stylish en-suite facility. This level also includes a guest cloakroom and useful utility cupboard. The principal accommodation is set across the first floor and is open plan with the free flowing space providing a living room positioned to the southern side and with French doors opening on to a Juliet balcony which overlooks the rear garden. A dining area is positioned to the front and has a pair of doors opening on to a further balcony, whilst the kitchen is centrally positioned and has a comprehensive range of Siemens integrated appliances including an electric oven, microwave, induction hob, refrigerator, freezer and dishwasher.

From the hallway a flight of stairs leads to the second floor where there are three bedrooms – two of which are doubles, with Bedroom 2 having its own en-suite shower room which is supplemented by the house bathroom. The third floor is full of character and is home to the Principal Bedroom, which incorportates a feature free standing bath and more discreetly positioned WC with adjacent wash basin. French doors open on to a further balcony area with views across Craiglands Gardens towards the distant hills above Wharfedale. As one would expect, this recently constructed home enjoys a high degree of insulation with double glazing throughout as well as gas fired heating and underfloor heating to the ground floor.

Craiglands Gardens is set close to Ilkley’s famous moors but is less than half a mile or so from Ilkley’s town centre which is home to a comprehensive range of retail, social and recreational amenities. The town enjoys a stunning setting in the heart of Wharfedale, amidst some of the north of England’s finest countryside and yet is within comfortable daily travelling distance of many of the regions business centres including Harrogate, Leeds and Bradford – indeed both local cities have frequent rail connections from Ilkley’s town centre metro railway station.
