Summary - Ellar Ghyll, Otley, LS21 LS21 3DN
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Large garden, garage and solar income near station and good schools.
Detached three-bedroom cottage with generous room sizes and period features
A spacious detached cottage offering generous room sizes and period character in a well-connected Otley suburb. The house was originally two cottages and now provides a large lounge and dining area, three generous bedrooms and a substantial bathroom — a flexible layout that suits family living or home working.
Practical updates include a replaced roof (c. two years ago), a 2018 boiler and double glazing, plus solar panels that currently generate an indexed income of approximately £1,800–£2,000 a year under the existingFeed‑in Tariff. Outside there is off‑street parking for several cars, a garage with power and lighting, and generous front and tiered rear gardens with a sheltered patio and mature planting.
Location benefits include easy access to Menston station (circa 800m), frequent buses on Bradford Road and local schools rated Good–Outstanding, making the home suitable for families and commuters alike. The property is offered chain free, ready for an onward purchaser to move straight in or carry out sympathetic improvements.
Notable negatives are set out plainly: the property sits in a medium flood‑risk area and the original stone walls are likely uninsulated internally. There is a single main bathroom for three bedrooms and council tax is above average (Band E). Buyers wanting a fully modern thermal standard should budget for insulation upgrades and secondary works despite the recent roof and heating improvements.
