Otley Road, Skipton, North Yorkshire, BD23 1HG

DRASTICALLY REDUCED FOR A QUICK SALE

Exceptional Development Opportunity with Extensive Land and Approved Planning Permission

Three-bedroom end townhouse set on an unusually large plot with the benefit of approved planning permission, offering outstanding long-term potential.

Built in 2012, number 86 is a well-established modern home providing generous, practical accommodation within walking distance of the town centre. However, the true value lies in the exceptional size of the grounds and the planning permission already secured, creating a rare opportunity to enjoy a comfortable home while unlocking significant future development potential.

Properties offering this combination of modern living, substantial land, and approved planning permission are seldom available in such a convenient location.

Location Positioned on Otley Road, the property enjoys a level setting within comfortable walking distance of Skipton town centre. Shops, schools and everyday amenities are all close by, while the outlook across Eller Beck towards woodland gives an open feel. Convenience and outside space rarely come together like this so close to the centre.

Ground Floor Entrance hall with space for coats and access to a cloakroom fitted with WC and pedestal corner basin. Dining kitchen fitted with a range of gloss cream wall and base units with granite-effect worktops and integrated Lamona appliances including washer-dryer, slimline dishwasher and fridge freezer. Under-mounted oven with four-ring gas hob and canopy hood over. Dual aspect windows provide good natural light, with space for a breakfast table. Sitting room of good proportions with sliding glazed doors opening directly onto the patio and garden, creating an easy connection to the outside space. Pleasant outlook across Eller Beck enhances the sense of openness. Gas-fired central heating and double glazing throughout.

First Floor Landing with loft access (partially boarded) and useful over-stairs storage cupboard. Bedroom one positioned to the front with space for a double bed and bedroom furniture. Bedroom two to the rear, similar in size and enjoying long-distance views towards Skipton Moor. Bedroom three offers flexibility as a single bedroom, nursery or home office. House bathroom fitted with panelled bath and thermostatic shower over, WC, pedestal basin and chrome heated towel rail.

External Gardens are the standout feature here. Immediate patio and lawned garden can be accessed from both Otley Road and directly from the living room, providing private outdoor seating space alongside Eller Beck. A timber bridge crosses the beck to reveal a substantial additional area of land — highly unusual for a property within walking distance of town. This space offers excellent scope for those interested in gardening, growing produce or simply enjoying a much larger outdoor area than typically found with modern homes. Allocated parking space situated along the row.

Planning & Future Potential Planning permission has already been granted to erect a four-bedroom dwelling on part of the external land. This creates a clear and tangible development opportunity from day one. In addition, the extensive land across the bridge offers further scope, subject to the necessary consents. The size of the plot opens up possibilities that are simply not available with most town properties — whether that be additional development, long-term investment, or creating a more substantial residential footprint. For buyers looking beyond a standard three-bedroom home and wanting flexibility, upside and genuine future potential, this property offers a rare opportunity within Skipton.
