With no onward chain and now in need of a degree of modernisation, Manor Cottage presents an exciting opportunity to modernise a particularly spacious, three, double bedroom, extended, detached bungalow. Set in sizeable, landscaped gardens of around an acre looking out over open fields, yet within walking distance of all the amenities in the vibrant village of Burley in Wharfedale.

The house enjoys generously proportioned rooms with two separate entrances, providing the opportunity for a semi dependent relative to live close by, if desired. A reception porch is a great space to greet family and friends and gives access into a large dining room, which would work equally well as a living room or family room. This leads into a second spacious reception room with a fireplace creating a lovely, focal point and doors opening out onto the expansive, level, lawned garden. To the other side of the dining room, one finds the spacious dining kitchen with Shaker style cabinetry, a range of integral appliances and ample room for a dining table. Doors from here lead out to the garden and there is also access from here to further rooms in the property. Off the sitting room one finds a good sized double bedroom served by an en suite bathroom, with another bedroom/home office and house bathroom off the kitchen. A playroom connects the main house to the extension, created by the current owners, with a generous double bedroom, en suite shower room and good sized utility room. This whole area could be developed further to provide semi-dependent living for a relative or indeed an Airbnb/holiday let opportunity. There is a large, boarded loft area which could be converted (STPC). The bungalow is situated on a particularly generous and private plot with delightful, level, south facing rear garden backing onto open fields bound by mature trees and hedging whilst to the front there is a sweeping driveway leading to a large, tarmacadam area providing parking for a number of vehicles. There are mature trees in this area and an area of woodland adding to the privacy and greenery. Timber garages and a stone built, external store provide storage.
Burley in Wharfedale is a very popular and thriving village community in the heart of the Wharfe Valley, providing a good range of local shops including a Co-op local store, doctors’ surgery, library, two excellent primary schools, various inns and restaurants, butchers, delicatessen, cafes, churches of several denominations and a variety of sporting and recreational facilities. A commuter rail service to Leeds/Bradford city centres, with commuting times of under 30 minutes and Ilkley in 5 minutes, is also available from the village station, only a few minutes' walk away.
