Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Ilkley, LS29 :
Set on a quiet country lane amidst stunning grounds of around 12 acres, this substantial country home provides very generous four bedroom accommodation with consents for a two bedroom annexe (subject to conditions). The property occupies one of Wharfedale's finest rural locations just a couple of miles from the spa town of Ilkley with its excellent train services into Leeds and Bradford. Beautiful far reaching views to the south. EPC rating E.
Lane End Farm is a magnificent family home occupying a slightly elevated position above the highly regarded 'no through road' village of Denton and from where there are stunning views to the south across Wharfedale towards Ilkley Moor. This impressive family property, dating from around 1740, was originally a farmhouse and barn and over the years has been significantly and sympathetically extended and improved and now provides high quality accommodation with an enviable specification and no shortage of space, either internally or to the outside.
The house is entered through a large reception hall and provides character features throughout - with extensive exposed stone work, oak beams, oak joinery and stone mullioned double glazed windows to a number of rooms, along with charming fireplaces. There are four reception rooms and a large living kitchen with garden room off; whilst an indoor swimming pool and spa provide an excellent amenity.
There are four bedrooms in all, each with beautiful views to the south and two with stylish en-suite facilities. The master suite is particularly generous in its proportions and has a dressing area off. A CCTV and security system is installed.
The house provides seclusion and privacy and is offered for sale with approximately 4.9 Ha (12 acres), of gardens, paddocks and copse - a wonderful amenity which provides many an opportunity for lovely walks and stream/lakeside vistas.
Denton is one of the Wharfe Valley's most sought after villages, occupying a beautiful setting just a couple of miles from Ilkley. The village provides an ideal rural haven whilst being readily accessible to many of the region's business centres, with Leeds Bradford International Airport being some 8 miles or so away. Nearby Ilkley provides a first class shopping environment, busy social round and an excellent choice of sports clubs and other social amenities. For the commuter there are regular rail links from both Ilkley and Ben Rhydding stations (1.8miles), in to the cities of Leeds and Bradford.Whilst the town has a highly regarded schooling system there are a number of private schools for children of all ages within comfortable daily travelling distance.
The sale of Lane End Farm offers a seemingly rare opportunity to acquire a very generous and well-appointed family home within one of the areas' most desirable and convenient locations.
