The property enjoys a highly desirable setting part way up Curly Hill in a private position that commands outstanding views to the south across
Ilkley towards the dramatic moors in the distance. An enviable location that delivers an ever-changing scene throughout the seasons.

Extending to over 3900 square feet (GIA), Middleton Crag has been thoughtfully planned with the principal day space positioned to the
western side and offering two large reception rooms – both enjoying direct terrace access – as well an impressive living kitchen with
preparation, dining and seating areas; laundry facilities. Discreetly positioned study with fitted furniture and views to the south.

There are five double bedrooms in all. These include a lovely dual aspect principal bedroom enjoying aspects across the valley and the side
garden, and with its own luxury ensuite and separate dressing room off. A lower ground floor guest bedroom, also has its own ensuite facilities,
as does the third double bedroom, whilst the balance share the use of a well-appointed house bathroom.

The property has a wonderful sense of arrival with remote control gates opening onto a long driveway approach which leads to a parking/turning area with a double garage beyond. There are lower level lawned gardens planted with a broad variety of fruit trees, with the main and side terrace combining to create a lovely alfresco dining/seating area – a beautiful location from where one can soak up the simply stunning views across the valley.

This impressive home is set within a highly regarded area and is around a quarter of an hours walk away form central Ilkley. The town is home
to a comprehensive range of retail amenities – ‘high street’ brands rubbing shoulders with a colourful array of independent shops. These are
complemented by excellent social amenities including a broad choice of restaurants, cafes and tearooms. The town even has its own independent cinema. Sports clubs cater for numerous activities including swimming, cricket, rugby and golf, whilst the beautiful countryside of Wharfedale offers many an opportunity for rural pursuits, challenging walks, mountain and road cycling. For the commuter Ilkley benefits from excellent rail services into both Leeds and Bradford, and from the former there are frequent services throughout the day to London Kings Cross – meaning an early start in the capital is a realistic (if occasional), option.
