"Situated on the highly sought after Rockwood park estate, this well kept two bedroom bungalow is offered with no chain and delivers the perfect blend of tranquillity and convenience just minutes from Skipton town centre. Boasting ample parking, excellent accessibility, and a peaceful setting, this is an ideal home for those seeking comfort, space, and a prime location.
Known as the Gateway to the Dales , Skipton is a thriving and historic market town on the edge of the stunning Yorkshire Dales National Park, with strong agricultural connections and a magnificent castle dating back to the 11th Century. Its colourful High Street hosts a market four days a week on the cobbled setts, along with a wide choice of shops, restaurants and public houses. The Leeds Liverpool Canal runs through the town with its pretty towpath walks and for families there is an excellent choice of schooling at both Primary and Secondary level. Small wonder that in 2014 Skipton was voted by The Sunday Times as the best place to live in Britain, receiving commendations for its "ideal combination of low crime rates, top class schools and great transport links", and in 2017 the Office of National Statistics revealed that Skipton is officially the happiest place to live in the UK!
Situated in a well sought after location on the Rockwood estate with lovely views and a quiet setting on the edge of Skipton. This home benefits from double glazing and gas fired central heating throughout. The property is described in brief below using approximate room sizes
