Property Details - Occupying a particularly desirable end plot, this beautifully presented three-bedroom home is only around three years old and still benefits from the remainder of its NHBC warranty, offering buyers the reassurance of a modern, relatively new-build property.

One of its biggest selling points is undoubtedly the fantastic, generously sized rear garden, which offers an exceptional amount of outdoor space for a home of this style. With a large lawn and plenty of room for children to play, summer entertaining or simply relaxing outdoors, it is the kind of garden that could genuinely influence a buying decision.

The property is further enhanced by its position at the end of the row, with the driveway running alongside the house rather than directly in front, creating a more attractive frontage and allowing convenient access through the side door, which the current owners use as their everyday entrance.

Offered with no upper chain and available either at 100% ownership or on a 32% shared ownership basis through Yorkshire Housing, this is a home capable of appealing to first-time buyers, young families and those looking for a more affordable route onto the property ladder.

Entering through the front door, the hallway gives access to a useful ground-floor WC before opening into the spacious kitchen diner. This bright and sociable room forms the heart of the home, offering ample space for a family dining table alongside a contemporary fitted kitchen with a good range of storage and worktop space.

There is also access to a separate utility area, providing valuable additional storage and laundry space, while the side entrance makes this an incredibly practical everyday arrival point - ideal for coming home with shopping, children, muddy boots or the dog.

To the rear is a generous lounge extending across the width of the property. There is plenty of space here for a substantial suite while still retaining a comfortable, relaxed feel, and French doors open directly onto the garden. During the warmer months, the living space can therefore spill naturally outdoors, making the garden feel like a genuine extension of the home.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is a well-proportioned double and benefits from its own en-suite shower room, giving the owners a little extra privacy away from the main family bathroom. Bedroom two is another comfortable double room, while the third bedroom would work equally well as a child’s bedroom, nursery, home office or dressing room depending on the buyer’s needs. A modern house bathroom completes the first floor.

Outside is where this property really separates itself from many of its neighbours. The rear garden is far larger than you might expect, predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed to create a secure space for children and pets. There is ample scope for seating areas, play equipment, raised beds or further landscaping, while the open lawn gives it a wonderful sense of space.

Whether imagined with a paddling pool and toys in summer, evening drinks with friends or simply somewhere to sit outside while the children play, it is a garden designed to be enjoyed rather than merely maintained.

The end position is another real advantage. With the driveway positioned alongside the house, rather than dominating the frontage, the property enjoys a more pleasing outlook and particularly convenient access straight into the utility/kitchen area. It is a small detail that makes everyday family life surprisingly easier.

The property is offered for sale with no upper chain and can be purchased either at 100% ownership or as a 32% share through Yorkshire Housing. Shared ownership allows eligible purchasers to buy a percentage of the property and pay rent on the remaining share owned by the housing association, potentially providing a more accessible route into home ownership.

Buyers may also have the opportunity to purchase additional shares in the future, subject to Yorkshire Housing’s terms, eligibility requirements and the specific lease arrangements.

Mill Gardens is well placed for enjoying everything Silsden has to offer, with the town centre providing a good selection of independent shops, cafés, pubs, schools and everyday amenities.

The area remains particularly popular with families and commuters alike, with attractive countryside close by while road and rail connections provide convenient access towards Skipton, Keighley, Ilkley, Leeds and Bradford. Steeton and Silsden railway station is also within easy reach for those travelling further afield.

For buyers wanting the convenience of a modern home without compromising on outdoor space, 35 Mill Gardens is a particularly appealing proposition — and that garden really does need to be seen to appreciate just how special the plot is.
