Hunger Hill, Middleton, Ilkley, North Yorkshire, LS29 0DP

A rare and exciting opportunity to rebuild this character cottage into a modern specification three bedroom home in this idyllic semi-rural location with far-reaching views across the valley, abutting open countryside and only a short drive to Ilkley town centre with its wide range of amenities. (Planning reference 26/01146/FUL).

Enjoying a superb, elevated position in the popular hamlet of Hunger Hills, in this semi-rural location with open countryside on the doorstop and a wide range of amenities found in nearby Ilkley, is an exciting opportunity to rebuild this fantastic property. The proposed accommodation within the approved plans includes a welcoming entrance hall, formal through sitting room, office, open plan living dining kitchen, a separate downstairs WC and utility/plant room and large store room. To the proposed first floor plans there is a master bedroom with ensuite, two further bedrooms and house bathroom. To the outside there are manageable gardens to the northern aspect while to the south there is good sized garden area with views over open countryside and the valley beyond. To the west there is proposed parking for three cars.

Whilst enjoying all the benefits of a rural location, the property is situated just over a mile away from the centre of Ilkley which provides an excellent range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, cafes and general amenities. Ilkley is considered an ideal base for commuters to Leeds and Bradford, with regular rail services from Ilkley station. The town has a very wide range of sporting, recreational and cultural facilities and the Yorkshire Dales National Park is less than 6 miles from the town. There are pleasant walks to be enjoyed immediately to hand from the property, as well as through the nearby famous Middleton Bluebell Woods. Westville House Preparatory School is also nearby.
