A distinguished five-bedroom detached home in a tucked-away private setting just off Gargrave Road, only about half a mile from Skipton town centre. The house blends Mock Tudor character with contemporary fittings — a fitted breakfast kitchen with island, spacious sunroom, living room with a multi-fuel stove and two en‑suites — all arranged over a well-planned two-storey layout. The property is freehold.
The standout feature is the unusually large, established and landscaped plot: lawns, rockeries, fruit trees, a bluebell wood, wildlife pond, vegetable beds and multiple sitting areas provide rare outdoor space and privacy in town. Practical benefits include a large integral double garage, double-width block-paved drive, gas central heating, quality double glazing and fast broadband.
This house will suit families who value space, gardens and good local schools (several rated Good and top-10% performers nearby), plus buyers wanting easy access to Skipton’s shops, canal, rail links and the Yorkshire Dales. The plot offers scope for further landscaping or garden projects, and internal space could be personalised to suit modern living arrangements.
Important practical points: the property sits in a high-crime local area relative to national averages and sits in Council Tax Band G, so running costs should be considered. The property appears well maintained but prospective buyers should commission independent checks on services and installations before commitment.
