AN INTERESTING INDIVIDUALLY DESIGNED SUPERIOR 4 BEDROOMED FAMILY HOUSE OF EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY WITH BEAUTIFULLY MANICURED GARDENS IN A MUCH SOUGHT AFTER RESIDENTIAL LOCATION

Pleasantly located in the heart of an exclusive rural hamlet on the outskirts of the town where property of this calibre rarely comes onto the open market, this remarkable house is constructed in traditional cut and dressed Yorkshire stonework and provides spacious well designed family accommodation with a versatile layout which is served by high quality uPVC double glazing and an oil fired central heating system.

Cleverly designed on a sloping site and with the Principle Rooms at first floor level, these include a spacious Sitting Room,  a Dining Room/Conservatory and a magnificent well equipped Living Kitchen, all enjoying tremendous elevated views and having easy access onto superb well stocked gardens which are adjacent to open fields at the rear.  The seclusion and sense of privacy from the latter is particularly worthy of note.

Thorlby is a thriving community which stands within less than 2 miles from Skipton’s historic town centre and set within The Yorkshire Dales National Park, being just off the Gargrave Road and handily placed for easy access to a selection of excellent Primary and Secondary Schools whilst Skipton Railway Station is also within less than a 5 minute car journey for those who commute to Leeds and Bradford.
