Norwood Close, Ilkley

Tucked away in the heart of beautiful Burley in Wharfedale, this thoughtfully renovated home offers a rare blend of modern comfort, village charm and long-term peace of mind. Less than 18 months ago the property underwent an impressive full transformation with new doors and windows as well as full electrical rewiring, emerging as a stylish, efficient and exceptionally comfortable home ready for its next chapter. Every detail has been considered, from the contemporary kitchen to the upgraded infrastructure behind the scenes, creating a space where you can simply move in and start enjoying the lifestyle this sought-after village provides.
The ground floor flows effortlessly, beginning with a welcoming entrance hall that leads into a spacious lounge bathed in natural light. The brand-new kitchen is the centrepiece of the home, offering a harmonious mix of elegance and practicality. Sleek cabinetry is complemented by premium appliances, a hot-water tap for instant convenience, and a dedicated stove-pot tap ideal for keen cooks. A built-in wine fridge adds a touch of luxury, making the kitchen as perfect for entertaining as it is for everyday living. Beyond this lies a useful utility room and ground-floor WC, completing a layout designed for modern lifestyles.
The upgrades extend far beyond the aesthetics. A new boiler, full electrical rewiring and a new circuit board offer confidence and efficiency for years to come. The loft has been fully boarded and fitted with a ladder, providing valuable storage space. Outside, a hot-and-cold mixer tap makes garden care or pet-washing effortless, while electricity has been extended to the outdoor kitchen area and shed, offering endless potential for indoor/outdoor living, entertaining or practical day-to-day use.
Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms provide ample room for family, guests or home working, all served by a beautifully appointed bathroom. Large windows draw in light and frame the tranquil views over the fields to the rear. The trees in this open green space benefit from Tree Preservation Orders, ensuring the peaceful outlook will remain protected and unchanged—a rare and precious asset.
