BD23 1FX
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Five bedrooms, south garden and long-distance views close to Skipton town.
Detached stone-built five-bedroom family home, newly renovated
A well-presented five-bedroom stone-built family home arranged over three floors, recently renovated and finished with high-quality fixtures and fittings. The living/dining kitchen with quartz surfaces and bi-fold doors opens onto a private, enclosed south-facing garden that enjoys long-distance countryside views — a strong lifestyle draw for families who value outdoor space and light.
Bright principal bedroom with dressing area and ensuite sits on the second floor; three further bedrooms and family bathroom are on the first floor plus a flexible ground-floor bedroom/study. Practical extras include a utility room, integrated Bosch appliances, EV charging point, good thermal insulation and the remainder of a ten-year New Homes Warranty, which should reduce short-term maintenance uncertainty.
Practical considerations: the advertised total floor area (c. 931 sq ft) is modest for a five-bedroom house and room sizes reflect efficient, vertical planning rather than expansive open-plan living. Council tax is in a higher band (Band F) and the garage is a single garage — parking is generous on the driveway but long-term storage and workshop options are limited.
Location is a major positive: set in a well-regarded development within walking distance of Skipton town centre and just minutes from Skipton Woods and the Leeds/Liverpool Canal. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and very low local crime rates suit families who need good connectivity and safe streets for children.
