Property description

With lift access and excellent communal facilities this purpose built two bedroom apartment enjoys a desirable first floor position within a purpose built block just a few moments walk from Ilkley's principal shopping area. Providing well presented accommodation with stylish kitchen and shower room facilities.

Guardian Court is a purpose built development of retirement apartments for the over 60s, and enjoys an incredibly convenient location amidst communal grounds, close to the centre of Ilkley and the lovely streamside walks of Mill Ghyll. The apartments within Guardian Court enjoy an excellent provision of communal amenities which include a resident's lounge with kitchen facility, a laundry, the services of a resident manager and a guest bedroom which may be rented out for occasional use. The building also has the advantage of an undercroft parking area where residents may rent a parking space subject to availability.

Apartment 8 has the advantage of gas fired heating (from the communal system), along with UPVC double glazing to the windows. Both bedrooms have integrated storage, whilst for any peace of mind there is an integrated emergency call system with 'pull points' within a number of locations. Having acquired the apartment in 2004 the present vendor refreshed both the kitchen and shower room fittings, and the former has a range of integrated cooking equipment along with a dishwasher, whilst the shower room features a stylish three piece white suite.

Ilkley itself has much to commend it offering, occupying a highly desirable setting amidst some of Yorkshire's finest countryside � equally the principal towns of Harrogate, Skipton, Leeds and Bradford are all within comfortable daily travelling distance, with the latter two having rail services from Ilkley's town centre station. First class shopping is on offer along with a comprehensive range of social and recreational amenities to suit a variety of tastes.
