Description
This three bedroom property is deceptively spacious, and an ideal home for families looking for the perfect location near the park and good schools, and those wanting to live in this highly desirable area of Skipton. Houses of this type, in this location, do not come onto the rental market very often. Located just off Gargrave Road and only a few minutes walking distance away from Skipton town centre amenities, the property is also close to Aireville Park, Craven Leisure Centre, the Leeds/Liverpool canal, the Railway and Bus Stations, and excellent primary and secondary schools.

The property has recently been decorated, with improvements to make it more child safe including sash window opening restrictors. Note that photographs show the property prior to redecoration in a similar colour scheme.

Planned on three floors including gas central heating, sealed unit double glazing, and a boarded out usable attic space, this property comprises briefly:

An entrance hall, a living room with a bay window and feature traditional fireplace, a dining kitchen, a converted cellar offering lots of storage including shelving, a pantry and space for white goods; whilst to the first floor there are three good sized bedrooms, a house bathroom fitted with a white three piece suite, and a shower room with heated towel rail. There is also an attic with ladder access which can be used for storage. Externally the property has a low maintenance front garden and paved back yard with storage shed.

The incredibly popular market town of Skipton has won many accolades in recent years, being independently judged to be one of the best areas to live in the UK via multiple media sources. The Gargrave Road area of Skipton in particular is regarded as one of the most sought after.

The town is intersected by the scenic Leeds/Liverpool canal and is well known for its Medieval Castle and Church together with a bustling High Street featuring an outdoor market on the cobbled 'setts' three days a week. The town offers an excellent mix of independent shops, pubs and cafes in addition to having well known branded stores and a choice of fashionable bars and restaurants. There are excellent public transport links including a railway station providing regular daily services to Leeds and Bradford. The town enjoys an annual programme of community events and festivals, attracting an ever increasing degree of tourism. In addition, the beautiful Yorkshire Dales National Park is only a short drive away to the North offering some of the finest countryside and scenery in the United Kingdom.

The business centres of West Yorkshire and East Lancashire are within comfortable daily commuting distance.
