Summary - Flat 1, 116, Skipton Road, ILKLEY LS29 9HE
2 bed 2 bath Penthouse
Newly renovated two-bedroom apartment with high-spec finishes and allocated parking.
Full-width balcony with far-reaching River Wharfe views
Set on the top floor of a meticulously reimagined Victorian villa, this penthouse occupies the uppermost level of Fairleigh and delivers sweeping views over the River Wharfe. The apartment has been newly renovated throughout with a high-spec kitchen, contemporary bathrooms and a full-width balcony accessed via retractable glazed doors — ideal for relaxed riverside living and entertaining.
The layout is generous and light; an open-plan living space plus two double bedrooms, each with an ensuite, give the feel of a comfortable, low-maintenance home. Practical features include two allocated parking spaces, an EV charging bollard for visitor use, and access to tended communal grounds — all within a short stroll of Ilkley’s shops, parks and leisure facilities.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold apartment with a 250-year lease and a service charge to cover communal maintenance. Heating and hot water are electric (storage heaters and electric hot water cylinder), there is no gas supply, and the building construction records indicate timber-frame walls (noted as assumed no insulation). These are factual points to consider alongside the high specification and recent comprehensive refurbishment.
For a downsizer looking for a stylish, low-upkeep home in an affluent riverside town, this penthouse combines period character with contemporary conveniences and excellent local amenities. The property’s situation in Ilkley Conservation Area and its proximity to parks, shops and transport make it particularly convenient for everyday life and leisure.
