Summary - 45 Chesterton Court, Railway Road, ILKLEY LS29 8UW
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Central location with on-site care and communal facilities for easy retirement living.
Second-floor two-bedroom apartment with Juliet balcony
An airy two-bedroom second-floor apartment in Chesterton Court offers convenient, low-maintenance living in the heart of Ilkley. The layout includes a spacious lounge with a Juliet balcony, a fitted kitchen, two well-proportioned bedrooms and an allotted off-street parking space. On-site facilities include a bistro restaurant, communal lounge for social events and 24-hour staffed support from a CQC-registered Estates Team.
This Retirement Living PLUS development is designed for over-70s who want independence with support nearby. The service charge covers many communal running costs and even provides one hour of domestic assistance per week; flexible care packages are also available. The apartment’s long lease (999 years from 2017) and included parking are practical ownership advantages.
Buyers should note the material running costs: the current service charge is £12,775.62 per year and ground rent is £510, both of which are significant ongoing commitments. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas, which can affect energy costs. The local crime level is reported above average; however, on-site staffing and secure communal areas add levels of reassurance.
Centrally placed close to the railway station, hospital, shops and Ilkley town centre, this apartment suits downsizers who prioritise location, community and available care. It will particularly appeal to buyers seeking a ready-made retirement lifestyle with social amenities on-site, though purchasers should factor the high service charges and electric heating into affordability calculations.
