Description
This impressive, contemporary family home provides particularly spacious and generously proportioned family living space which is appointed to a very high specification throughout.
Built only two years ago and set in an exclusive development on the outskirts of Burley in Wharfedale, the accommodation which is set over two floors comprises to the ground floor - a light and airy entrance hall with guest WC, a very useful cloaks cupboard and stairs leading to the first floor. The hall leads into a stunning, contemporary family dining kitchen which has a full range of wall, base and drawer units, complemented by granite working surfaces over. There are also a number of quality integrated appliances that include a double oven, electric hob with extractor over, dishwasher and fridge and freezer. The living area has double opening doors leading out to the rear garden. There is also a utility room which has a door leading outside. The ground floor rooms all have a most attractive Karndean wood effect herringbone flooring. At the front of the house is a generous size lounge which has a deep bay window.
On the first floor, there are four really good size double bedrooms, the master having an en suite and benefitting from the distant views towards the moor. The house bathroom is most contemporary with a white suite and complementary tiling.
Outside, at the front of the property, the driveway provides parking for two vehicles and gives access to a larger than average single garage which has an EV charging point. The recently landscaped front garden is low maintenance, being planted with low level shrubs. The southerly facing rear garden is particularly lovely, having been landscaped to provide two paved seating areas. Raised beds have been tastefully planted and the remainder is laid to lawn. There is also outside power and water supplies.
The property has the benefit of an NHBC Guarantee with 8 years remaining.
The village of Burley-in-Wharfedale is to be found roughly mid way between the local towns of Ilkley and Otley, surrounded by open countryside, but never the less well placed for the West Yorkshire business traveller. From the village's railway station there are frequent services throughout the day to both the local cities of Leeds and Bradford. Burley retains a surprisingly broad provision of everyday amenities including local shops, pubs/restaurants, churches of a number of denominations, and even a couple of primary schools. Equally, both local towns, Ilkley and Otley offer their own character and style of retail and recreational amenities, with Ilkley in particular being home to a first class shopping environment and a number of highly regarded sports clubs.
From our office on Station Road, proceed down to Main Street turning left at the mini roundabout. Follow Main Street and take the third left turn, just before the roundabout. You will see the sign for Whernside Lane ahead of you and the right turning where the property will be on your left.
