A well-presented one-bedroom retirement apartment on the upper ground floor, offering an L-shaped living room with morning sun and a practical kitchen and bathroom layout. The development is designed for independent later living with a staffed House Manager, 24/7 emergency call system and lift access to all floors.
Communal facilities include a residents’ lounge, guest suite (small nightly fee), and communal laundry — useful for sociable owners and visitors. The flat sits within easy walking distance of shops, medical services, library and public transport links in Ilkley, a prosperous town known for festivals and good local amenities.
Buyers should note ongoing costs: an annual service charge of £2,756.36 and ground rent of £679.59. Heating is via electric storage heaters (no community gas), and the lease term is reported inconsistently in the paperwork (records show between 88 and 110 years remaining) — prospective purchasers should verify lease length and running costs before offer.
This apartment will suit an over-60 buyer seeking low-maintenance, community-oriented living in an affluent Ilkley location. It offers straightforward, comfortable accommodation and the reassurance of on-site management and emergency systems, with some running costs and heating type to factor into budgeting.
