Description
To the rear is a charming, landscaped garden laid to Yorkshire stone flags and an area of lawn, ideal for relaxing in the afternoon and evening sun or just having a great time with friends. There is external access via the alleyway.
This is an absolute gem of a home, the like of which rarely comes to market and is ideal for those who are looking for a flexible, family home bursting with character, so if you enjoy the Café society that Ilkley has to offer right on your doorstep, this property is the perfect, ?just walk in and put the kettle on? home and an early viewing is highly recommended.
The delightfully presented accommodation with GAS FIRED CENTRAL HEATING, TIMBER FRAMED, SASH, SEALED UNIT DOUBLE GLAZING and with approximate room sizes comprises:
Ground Floor
The property has benefitted from having been re-roofed and insulated in 2008, re-plastered, had new windows fitted throughout and new floor joists and insulation to the flying freehold above the alleyway to the rear.
Lounge/Dining/Kitchen
4.50m x 4.30m (14' 9" x 14' 1") Plus 4.60m x 4.10m (15' 1" x 13' 5")
One enters the spacious, living dining kitchen through a half-glazed, timber door. One is immediately immersed in the wonderful ?Skandi? style of this charming room, creating a most relaxing atmosphere. A modern, Morso, multi-fuel, cast iron stove stands on a stone hearth with gloss, grey, brick effect tiling to the fire back. The flooring is reclaimed, stripped, mahogany from a school gym and the unfitted kitchen area with large centre island with solid, wooden surface is a delight; one just knows this is a great entertaining space. Fitted with a range of gloss, white, ?Shaker? style kitchen units with feature display cupboards. Wood effect, laminate worksurfaces incorporate a stainless-steel sink with chrome taps with gloss white, brick effect tiling to the splashback. Integrated stainless-steel oven and black, ceramic hob with curved, stainless-steel extractor over. Double-glazed, timber framed French doors afford ample natural light and provide direct access to the rear garden. A door opens into:
Rear Porch
This rear porch is so very useful with coir matting and shelves and hooks create an organised spot for shoes and coats. A half-glazed timber door opens to the garden.

A doorway from the kitchen gives access to a flight of stone steps leading down to an ?L? shaped cellar.

Dressing Room
6.50m x 2.20m (21' 4" x 7' 3")
A further door leads into another large room with Velux window presently used as a dressing room, although it could be used as a nursery. We understand there is plumbing available lending itself to conversion into an en-suite.
Outside
Garden
To the rear of the property is the jewel in the crown, a delightful, generous, cottage garden has created a wonderful, Yorkshire stone patio area in which to sit and relax or entertain friends in the afternoon and evening sunshine. Further space has been allocated to a shed and a timber child?s climbing den. Bounded by well stocked borders and a low fence with a gate giving direct access to:
Alleyway
Between the two neighbouring properties is an alley way with flying freehold above, which has been insulated and resealed with Kingspan. The alley below has original, cobble stones and our clients have created two timber storage sheds and a covered bike store. This gives direct access to the rear of the properties.
