This beautifully presented home proudly stands in a recently developed residential area surrounded by picturesque countryside, yet within close walking distance of the centre of the bustling market town of Skipton, 26 Whernside Road must be viewed to fully appreciate the high calibre of living space on offer.

The location is hard to improve on, positioned in a desirable residential area just off Harrogate Road, within walking distance of Skipton town centre whilst also being only a short five minute walk to/from Skipton Woods, an ancient area of woodland extending behind the spectacular Medieval Skipton Castle following the enchanting nature valley of Eller Beck, offering a wonderful natural habitat for bird and other wildlife whilst leading past the historic Springs Canal and directly down into the town centre itself.
