Charming three-bedroom village home with scope to extend attic, chain-free and close to top schools..
Stone-built mid-terrace with Victorian features
A characterful stone mid-terrace in the sought-after village of Addingham, this three-bedroom home combines period charm with practical family living. Well-proportioned rooms spread over three floors include a cosy sitting room, a generous dining room with wood burner, and an open-plan kitchen that leads directly to a low-maintenance rear courtyard. The property is chain-free and sold freehold, ready for an immediate move or letting.
Families will appreciate the strong local schooling (including two outstanding-rated nearby schools), low crime levels and a pleasant open outlook to the rear with views toward Ilkley Moor. Modern conveniences include mains gas central heating, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, making the house suitable for everyday family life and home working. The property’s Victorian features — sash windows, fireplaces and coving — give it period character throughout.
There is clear scope to increase usable space: the generous attic bedroom could be enlarged with a dormer subject to the necessary planning consents, creating a larger main bedroom or home office. The plot is small and the garden is a courtyard, so external space is low-maintenance rather than expansive — ideal for buyers who prefer minimal garden upkeep but not for those wanting large lawns or extensive outdoor room.
Buyers should note some practical considerations: the stone walls are as-built with no confirmed insulation, so upgrading insulation could be required to improve energy efficiency. The house is of Victorian construction and, while well-presented in parts, will benefit from targeted updating in places to suit contemporary tastes. Overall, this is an attractive village home offering character, good connectivity and scope for modest improvement.
