5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Gargrave Road, Skipton, North Yorkshire BD23

Set back from Gargrave Road in one of Skipton’s most sought-after positions, this substantial stone-built home offers an exceptional amount of space, flexibility and finish. Originally dating back to 1885 and thoughtfully extended over time, the property now delivers a superb family home with five bedrooms, each benefiting from en-suite facilities, alongside a range of generous reception spaces and a versatile second floor attic room. Private off street parking for multiple vehicles, attractive gardens and a detached stone garden room complete what is a rare opportunity so close to the town centre.

Location
Positioned within comfortable walking distance of Skipton’s High Street, the property enjoys the best of both worlds – a tucked away setting with immediate access to a wide range of amenities. Skipton continues to be one of the most desirable market towns in the region, offering well-regarded primary and secondary schooling, a broad mix of independent shops, cafes and restaurants, and excellent transport links including a railway station with regular services to Leeds and beyond. Surrounding countryside, including the Yorkshire Dales National Park, is just a short drive away, making this an ideal base for both families and those seeking access to outdoor space.

Ground Floor
Entrance is through an enclosed porch into a welcoming reception hall with staircase access to the upper floors. A formal living/dining room sits to the front, featuring a bay window and period detailing, while a further living room/snug enjoys views over the rear garden with a feature gas stove. A separate sitting room/dining room provides further flexibility and connects through to a well-appointed kitchen, fitted with a range of contemporary units, quality integrated appliances and oak work surfaces. Beyond this is a useful side entrance porch/utility area. The ground floor layout continues to impress with a luxurious house bathroom incorporating both a freestanding bath and walk-in shower, alongside two additional versatile rooms with one currently used as a bedroom and other as a home office which benefits from an en-suite shower room, making it ideal for guests, independent living or home working arrangements.

First Floor
The first floor offers five well-proportioned bedrooms, all benefitting from their own en-suite shower facilities, providing a rare level of convenience for family living. Each room is thoughtfully arranged, offering flexibility for a variety of uses depending on requirements, while a stylish, recently updated house shower room adds further practicality, finished to a high standard with contemporary fittings.

Second Floor
A spacious attic room occupies the top floor, offering excellent ceiling height and natural light via both a gable window and rooflight. This is a highly versatile space, ideal for use as a hobby room or any other use that may suit your needs best!

External & Outbuilding
To the front, a raised garden with established planting sets the property back from the road, adding both privacy and kerb appeal. At the rear, a generous enclosed garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to include flagged seating areas, decking and well-stocked borders, creating a great space for both entertaining and day-to-day family use. Steps lead up to a private driveway providing ample off-street parking for several vehicles – a real advantage this close to the town centre. A detached stone-built garden room offers further flexibility, ideal as a workspace, studio or garden retreat, with light and power connected. The property also benefits from solar panels, contributing towards energy efficiency and ongoing cost savings.
