A stunning and spacious five-bedroom executive family home, set in a peaceful yet highly convenient location close to the heart of Ilkley. Arranged over three floors with far-reaching views and planning permission to extend, this exceptional detached property offers versatile family living and must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
Location
A stunning five-bedroom detached family home located in an enviable setting off Ben Rhydding Drive, enjoying far-reaching views across the Wharfe Valley to the front. Ben Rhydding is a highly desirable village community on the eastern side of Ilkley, prized for its local shops, sought-after primary school, train station and the Wheatley Arms Hotel. Ilkley town centre is approximately one mile away and offers excellent schools, independent shops and restaurants, beautiful scenery and convenient rail links, making the area ideal for Leeds and Bradford commuters.
Lower Ground Floor
The lower ground floor provides a useful plant room housing the gas-fired central heating boiler. There is also a versatile reception room with independent access to the front elevation and internal access from the utility room, making it ideal as a snug, home gym or additional living space.
Ground Floor
The property is entered via a welcoming entrance hall with staircase to the first floor, oak balustrade and useful under-stairs storage. A cloakroom with wash basin and WC is located off the hallway.
The sitting room is an impressive reception space spanning the full length of the property, featuring a bow window to the front with far-reaching valley views, additional windows to the side and rear, and a central feature fireplace with log-burning stove.
The family room, currently used as a home cinema, offers excellent flexibility and also benefits from a bow window to the front. Double doors lead through to a generous home office with windows to both the front and side elevations.
The breakfast kitchen is a spacious and well-appointed family hub, fitted with a range of wall and base units, complementary work surfaces, integrated appliances and a breakfast bar seating area. The kitchen is open to the garden room, currently used as a dining area, with bi-folding doors leading out onto the rear terrace and garden.
A utility room completes the ground floor accommodation, offering fitted units, Belfast sink, space for laundry appliances, a side entrance door and staircase access to the lower ground floor.
First Floor
The first floor offers five well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a generous space with windows to the rear and front, and a modern en-suite shower room featuring a walk-in double shower, double vanity unit, WC, underfloor heating and heated towel rail.
Bedroom two enjoys fitted wardrobes and stunning views across the Wharfe Valley. Bedroom three also benefits from valley views and has its own en-suite shower room. Bedrooms four and five overlook the rear garden and both include fitted wardrobes.
The house bathroom is a spacious and contemporary room, fitted with a whirlpool bath, walk-in shower, wash basin and WC, complemented by underfloor heating and a window to the front elevation.
Outside
The property benefits from a double garage with an electrically operated up-and-over door, two electric vehicle charging points and a driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles.
The gardens surround the property and are beautifully maintained, with mature trees and hedging providing privacy.

The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn with mature shrubs and perennials, a stone boundary wall and a private terraced area ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining.
