This ground-floor, two-bedroom retirement apartment at Listers Court offers low-maintenance, newly renovated accommodation in central Ilkley. The flat is bright and neutrally finished throughout, with a spacious sitting room, refitted kitchen with integrated appliances, two double bedrooms and a modern walk-in shower room — ready to move into for immediate occupation.
The development is purpose-built for older residents and includes well-kept communal gardens, a residents' car park and communal amenities such as a lounge and laundry. Gas-fired community heating and double glazing help keep running costs reasonable, while the long lease (circa 118 years remaining) provides tenure security for buyers.
Practical considerations are clear and should influence buying decisions: the property is leasehold, with an annual service charge of about £3,557 and a relatively high Council Tax band E. There is also a higher-than-average local crime statistic to note, although the building itself presents as well maintained and secure.
Located in Ilkley’s sought-after town centre, the apartment suits downsizers who prioritise convenience — shops, cafes, transport links and green spaces are within easy walking distance. The size and layout are typical of retirement accommodation: easy ground-floor access and manageable communal grounds support independent living without heavy upkeep.
Overall, this apartment is a practical, move-in-ready option for older buyers looking to downsize in a popular market town, provided the service charge and local considerations match the purchaser’s budget and lifestyle priorities.
