NO FORWARD CHAIN
Intelligently extended on the ground floor and offering deceptively spacious living accommodation, this traditional two double bedroomed stone terraced home is situated in a delightful location literally yards away from Skipton's bustling High Street as well as beautiful open countryside nearby.

18 Raikes Road stands in a row of terraced houses that rarely become available, therefore providing a particularly unique opportunity that will be attractive to a number of discerning prospective purchasers, including those searching for a ideal holiday home close to all of Skipton's town centre amenities and services. The property offers very briefly:

A spacious open plan living/dining room with coal effect gas fireplace. Kitchen extension including negotiable free standing appliances. Small first floor landing with attractive exposed stone wall. Two well planned double bedrooms. Both bedrooms provide fitted wardrobes. Bathroom with a modern three piece white suite. Outside to the front elevation there are raised stone wall boundaries and stone flagged steps/pathway leading up to the house. Established flowerbed. Off road parking space suitable for a small vehicle. At the rear there is a very pleasant stone patio roof garden planned above the extension and accessible from the second bedroom. Enclosed concreted yard.

The increasingly 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. Catering to residents of all ages, the town offers the perfect combination of excellent schooling, easy access to countryside and an extensive choice of leisure, shopping and recreational facilities.

The town is intersected by the scenic Leeds/Liverpool canal and is well known for its Medieval Church and Castle 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 popular 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, offering some of the finest countryside and scenery in the United Kingdom.
