Full Details for 6 Bedroom Detached for sale in Ilkley, LS29 :
A significant opportunity to acquire two semi-detached houses with a residential planning consent for redevelopment of the site as a whole which totals circa 0.6 acres on the south western fringe of Ilkley. The planning permission for redevelopment of the site as a whole will provide three luxury homes.
Gateacre Mews and Dove Corner are an interesting old pair of stone built semi-detached houses of individual character currently occupied as two separate homes.
The site offers considerable redevelopment potential as outline planning permission has recently been granted for the redevelopment of the site to provide two large detached family dwellings and a detached bungalow style property. Details of the redevelopment proposals are available for inspection at our offices or on-line at the Bradford Council's planning department website www.planning4bradford.com application no: 11/02537/OUT.
There is also potential to combine the two houses to create a large family dwelling (subject to any necessary planning / building regulation consents). The property could also be particularly suitable for those seeking multi-generational living.
The setting, amidst large well screened mature grounds on the south western fringe of Ilkley close to Panorama Woods, an area of natural woodland which leads up to Ilkley Moor and commanding some exceptional views across the valley towards Beamsley Beacon, is quite exceptional. Indeed, opportunities to purchase a property with extensive grounds of this nature is now extremely rare in Ilkley.
Ilkley town centre with its wide range of shops, restaurants, cafes, supermarkets and general amenities is circa 1 mile distant. The town has highly regarded schools for all ages and a very wide range of sporting and recreational facilities and cultural events. Indeed Ilkley is considered an ideal base in the Wharfe valley countryside for commuters to Leeds / Bradford city centres to which regular rail services are available from Ilkley station, along with buses to surrounding towns. There are pleasant walks to be enjoyed quite literally from the doorstep through the nearby woodland out into the countryside and moorland beyond and the Yorkshire Dales National Park is less than 6 miles distant from Ilkley.
