Set on the second floor of a well-known purpose-built block in the heart of Ilkley, this sizable two-double-bedroom apartment delivers bright, elevated living with sweeping views to three sides. A generous dual-aspect sitting room opens onto a covered, south-facing balcony—a rare spot for morning sun and evening light—while lift access and an allocated covered parking space add everyday convenience.
The apartment is principally double glazed and benefits from long leasehold security (999 years from 1965) with a modest ground rent. The communal areas and grounds are maintained, and the current service charge covers lift, exterior maintenance and buildings insurance. The layout is traditional and straightforward, with a large entrance hall, practical kitchen and a separate bathroom; both bedrooms include recessed wardrobe space.
Practical considerations are important for a downsizer or buyer seeking a low-exertion town-centre base. Heating is electric (storage/room heaters) and the EPC is rated D; walls are system-built with no known additional insulation, which may affect running costs. The service charge is c. £235 pcm and there is above-average local crime to note. Overall, this is an attractive, low-maintenance apartment with excellent town-centre access, strong views and genuine scope for updating to improve comfort and efficiency.
Viewings are suggested for anyone wanting an easy-to-manage home in a very affluent Ilkley location with good local schools, shops and transport close at hand.
