Main Description
It is not very often you can say ?here is the perfect opportunity
to extend a three-bedroom, detached house in the perfect location?
- well here it is, so please form an orderly queue! The property is
ideally positioned on a generous plot in a quiet, highly regarded
Parklands crescent within easy walking distance of Ilkley town
centre and all its many amenities, the train station and the
Grammar School. One has the possibility, (subject to planning) to
extend this property to create a spacious family home, (many
properties on Parklands have been sympathetically extended) or just
to purchase as a charming, three-bedroom home - the choice is
yours. Originally built for his own occupation, the builder of
Parklands chose a special, generous plot, commanding a central
location affording uninterrupted, south facing views to the iconic
Cow and Calf Rocks to the front elevation and benefitting from a
spacious garden to the rear with long distance views towards
Middleton. One enters the property through a porch with glazed
doors, an ideal spot to kick off shoes and boots, on through an
original door with charming, leaded side window into a good-sized
hallway with original coving and picture rail with a useful
cloakroom located under the stairs. A spacious sitting room has a
feature brick fireplace and a south facing, bay window with leaded
windows commanding stunning views to the Cow and Calf and allowing
the natural light to flood in. The dining room has delightful
proportions with deep coving, picture rail and feature 1930?s fire
place with timber surround and cast-iron fireplace. A picture
window affords delightful views across the valley. A glazed,
multi-panel door opens from the hallway into the kitchen, fitted
with oak fronted units and a window looks over the rear garden. A
door to the side of the property gives access to the garden. The
charming, original staircase leads to the first floor with leaded
window. The spacious master bedroom has a bay window affording
natural light and the wonderful Cow and Calf views. There is a
further double bedroom and a single, all served by a contemporary
house bathroom. Outside a driveway leads to the attached single
garage with up and over door. This property has tremendous curb
appeal with charming proportions and an area of mature garden to
the front. The piece de la resistance is the large, enclosed garden
to the rear with areas of lawn and patios all bound by mature
borders.
This is an absolute gem of an opportunity, the like of which rarely
comes to market, so if you enjoy the Caf? society that Ilkley has
to offer right on your doorstep, this property is just absolutely
perfect and an early viewing is highly recommended.
