Summary - 20 Chesterton Court, Railway Road, ILKLEY LS29 8UW
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Low-maintenance one-bed retirement flat with parking and 24-hour on-site staff.
First-floor one-bedroom with Juliette balcony overlooking communal garden
Bright, first-floor one-bedroom apartment in Chesterton Court, designed for over-70s who value convenience and community. The living room enjoys a Juliette balcony with views over well-kept communal gardens; a designated car parking space (P23) is included. On-site services include a bistro restaurant, 24-hour staffed Estates team, communal lounge with events, and one hour of domestic assistance included per week.
The apartment is finished with fitted kitchen appliances, a walk-in wardrobe and a modern wet room with emergency pull cord. Carpets, curtains and light fittings are included, and full-fibre broadband is available. The lease is long (999 years from 2017) so there is strong tenure security and predictable ownership.
Practical costs and considerations: the annual service charge (£9,724.26) is high and should be factored into monthly budgets; ground rent is £435 with the next review in 2032. Heating is by electric room heaters, which can mean higher running costs depending on usage and tariffs. Local crime statistics are above average for the area, but the development benefits from on-site staff and security systems.
Located centrally in Ilkley, the development is within a short walk of the railway station, Tesco convenience, local shops and medical services, with easy access to Ilkley Moor and the Yorkshire Dales. This apartment suits a buyer seeking low-maintenance, community-focused retirement living with immediate on-site support and local amenities on the doorstep.
