Secure, low‑maintenance one-bedroom retirement apartment close to Ilkley station and town centre.
West-facing one-bedroom apartment with Juliet balcony and sunny aspect
A bright west-facing one-bedroom apartment on the first floor of Chesterton Court, designed for independent over‑70s who want convenience and on-site support. The development provides 24‑hour staffing, a bistro restaurant, communal lounge with regular events and one hour of domestic assistance included in the service charge each week. The apartment includes a generous bedroom with walk-in wardrobe, a spacious living room with a Juliet balcony and a modern fitted kitchen and wet room.
The position is a major selling point: approximately 350 yards from Ilkley railway station, within easy walking distance of the town centre, Tesco, the hospital and bus stops directly outside the building. Practical extras include full‑fibre broadband and external maintenance covered by the service charge, so owners avoid day‑to‑day upkeep.
Buyers should note the material running costs: a high annual service charge of £9,724.26 and ground rent of £435 per year. There’s no allocated parking included in the sale (on‑street and limited visitor bays only) and heating is by electric room heaters, which can be more expensive than central systems. The flat is leasehold with c. 992 years remaining and is offered exclusively to purchasers aged 70 and over.
This apartment suits a downsizer seeking a secure, low‑maintenance base in Ilkley with social amenities close at hand. It will particularly appeal to those who value on‑site care options and communal life, but buyers should factor the service charge and electric heating into affordability calculations.
