Pool Bank New Road, Pool in Wharfedale, Otley, LS21

UNIQUE high-specification, energy-efficient, individual contemporary four-bedroom family home situated within a woodland setting yet highly convenient for commuters to Leeds, Harrogate and beyond.

Set within a mature 0.25-acre woodland plot on Pool Bank New Road, House in the Woods is an individual four-bedroom detached home offers something rather special. Constructed in 2020 to a high specification, it combines the style and finish of a modern home with the character and natural surroundings of an established woodland setting.

Accommodation

Inside, the house is bright, contemporary and beautifully presented, with underfloor heating to the ground floor and an impressive EPC B rating. At the heart of the home is the superb dining kitchen, featuring a large island with breakfast bar, quality integrated appliances and bi-folding doors opening directly onto the garden patio. It's a fantastic space for everyday family life and equally well suited to entertaining.

The ground floor also includes a comfortable living room with direct garden access, a useful utility room and a downstairs WC.

On the first floor are three generous double bedrooms, including one with an en-suite, together with the family bathroom. The second floor is home to the impressive principal bedroom suite, complete with its own stylish en-suite bath and shower room for a wonderful sense of privacy.

Outside

The large driveway provides parking for several vehicles, while the generous landscaped garden offers plenty of space for children, pets and outdoor entertaining. Despite the property's position on the main road, the substantial woodland plot and established planting create a surprisingly private feel to the rear, with the mature evergreen boundary adding further screening.

Location

The location is another major attraction. Pool-in-Wharfedale is a popular village with a good range of everyday amenities, including a pub, post office and convenience store, pharmacy and thriving sports and social club. The X84 bus service provides a regular link towards Leeds and Ilkley, while Weeton railway station is around 2.5 miles away. Leeds Bradford Airport is also just a few minutes' drive, making this a particularly convenient location for commuters and travellers.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, the beautiful Wharfedale countryside is right on the doorstep, with Otley Chevin, Armscliffe Crag and Ilkley Moor among the many walking and cycling destinations nearby.

If you're looking for a modern family home that's genuinely different from the norm, with generous outdoor space, excellent energy efficiency and a superb location for both countryside and commuting, this could be the one for you.
