Description
A very exciting opportunity to acquire this substantially extended, spacious individual stone semi-detached house. Providing the lucky new owner/s an immaculately presented five bedroomed family-sized home including en-suite bathrooms to all bedrooms, a house shower room, a generous second floor attic room, and externally private level driveway providing oustanding parking facilities. Standing within a prestigious sought after location set back from Gargrave Road, and being within easy walking distance of Skipton town centre's numerous services and amenities.
Residences of this quality so close to Skipton's bustling High Street and its highly reputable primary and secondary schools, rarely enter the open market. This tastefully decorated property has much to commend it and will appeal to those persons searching for a beautiful 'ready to occupy' family home.
This attractively improved period property includes mains gas central heating together with UPVC sealed unit double glazing throughout and offers very briefly:
An enclosed entrance hall. A reception hall. Formal dining / living room. Spacious second living room and a sitting room. A contemporary fitted kitchen with high quality built-in appliances. Side entrance porch/utility room. An inner hall leading to a luxurious house bathroom with separate bath and large walk-in shower enclosure. A ground floor reception room suitable for a variety of uses (currently serving as a double bedroom). Another ground floor room that could easily accommodate a home office or children's play room with en-suite shower room. On the first floor are four bedrooms, four en-suites, a study, and a superb newly-appointed house shower room. There is a very well-proportioned second floor attic room with gable and velux windows. To the front of the house is a raised established garden whilst at the rear is a good sized, enclosed garden with stone flagged patios/sitting-out areas, timber decking, a stone-built garden room, and steps up to the private parking suitable for several vehicles. In addition to all of this the property also benefits from solar panels, providing the great use of renewable energy and a regular income.
The incredibly popular market town of Skipton fondly known as "The Gateway to the Dales", has won many accolades in recent years, being independently judged to be one of the best areas to live in the UK via multiple media sources. Catering to residents of all ages, the town offers the perfect combination of excellent schooling, easy access to countryside and an extensive choice of leisure, shopping and recreational facilities. The town is intersected by the scenic Leeds/Liverpool canal and is well known for its medieval castle and church together with a bustling high street featuring an outdoor market on the cobbled 'setts' three days a week. The town offers an excellent mix of independent shops, pubs and cafes in addition to having well known branded stores and a choice of popular bars and restaurants. There are excellent public transport links, including a railway station (less than 10 minutes walk from the house) providing regular daily services to Leeds, Bradford, and the Yorkshire Dales. The town enjoys an annual programme of community events and festivals attracting an ever increasing degree of tourism. In addition, the Yorkshire Dales National Park is only a short drive away, offering some of the finest countryside and scenery in the United Kingdom.
This wonderfully spacious and versatile property has much to commend it and offers considerably more than first meets the eye. Currently operating as a bed & breakfast though full planning permission has been granted to permit use as a private family home. Described in further detail:
