Description
Set within one of Ilkley's most coveted positions, this substantial home immediately impresses with its scale, privacy and far-reaching outlook. Tucked away behind established greenery and surrounded by beautifully arranged south-facing gardens, it enjoys a peaceful setting while remaining wonderfully connected to everything Ilkley has to offer.
Step into the entrance hallway and you are welcomed by a space that sets the tone for the rest of the house. More than simply a point of arrival, it has been used by the current owners as an additional sitting area, with oak flooring underfoot adding warmth and quality from the outset.
To the left, the kitchen opens into a superb entertaining space, thoughtfully extended and redesigned with both everyday living and hosting in mind. A substantial central island sits at the heart of the room, complemented by an excellent range of appliances including two ovens, a warming oven, combination microwave oven, induction and gas cooking, a brand-new dishwasher, full fridge and freezer, separate drinks fridge and integrated storage. Underfloor heating adds comfort, while a double window above the sink frames lovely views towards the Ilkley Moors. A skylight draws in even more natural light, and a utility room just off the kitchen provides further practicality with generous storage and a traditional Victorian airer.
The ground floor offers impressive flexibility, with a downstairs WC, fitted safe, dedicated home office, and a further reception room complete with gas fire. Just off the kitchen is another reception space with sliding doors, allowing it to be opened up or closed off as needed, making it ideal as a snug, family room or children's TV room, with a log-burning stove bringing warmth and character.
Connected to the main house is a remarkable wellness area, complete with shower room, WC, sauna and a spacious gym area. Extended rooflines, skylights and three sets of double patio doors create a bright and open feel, while surround sound and the retained original framework for a swimming pool beneath the floor offer further lifestyle appeal and future potential. A hot tub enhances the sense of relaxation and entertainment.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys a particularly special position to the rear, with an en-suite shower room and a large balcony accessed through sliding doors. From here, the views across to the Ilkley Moors are extraordinary. A covenant protecting this outlook ensures the view cannot be obstructed without the owners' permission, adding rare long-term reassurance. Two further double bedrooms and the main bathroom complete this floor. The second floor offers two more double bedrooms, both brightened by skylights and both enjoying beautiful open views.
The property also includes a fully self-contained annex, offering exceptional flexibility. Beautifully arranged, it provides two double bedrooms, a spacious sitting and dining area, kitchen, shower room, its own balcony, separate garden area with patio, and gated driveway. Whether used for dependent family, older children, staff accommodation, home working or income generation through rental or Airbnb, it adds a level of adaptability that is increasingly hard to find.
Outside, the gardens wrap around the property and have been thoughtfully planted with flower beds, orchard trees and a vegetable plot. Several seating areas make the most of the setting, including a side deck, and a rear deck with timber pergola. A detached insulated garden building, currently used as a home office, includes wired Wi-Fi, cold water and a fridge station, while a secure shed sits nearby. Solar panels, 500 Mbps internet, full Wi-Fi coverage, and alarm systems to both the main house and annex all add to the ease of modern living.
With the footbridge, park, river and Riverside pub at the bottom of the road, and Ilkley town centre around a twenty-minute walk away, this is a home that combines privacy and lifestyle in one of Wharfedale's most desirable settings.
