Work is approaching completion on a new apartment development that has seen the upper floors of a landmark building on The Grove, in the heart of Ilkley town centre, transformed into 10 luxurious homes and over half have already been reserved.
The development, known as Langbar House, is being created by a highly respected development partnership, YorPlace and Square Feet, which is behind several other successful developments in the local area.
These include Lime Garth off Ilkley’s Kings Road, the transformation of the Grade I listed Burley House and conversion of The Malt Shovel, both in Burley in Wharfedale, as well as nine new homes at Deer Glade, Darley near Harrogate.
The one and two bedroom apartments at Langbar House are being marketed by the successful new homes division of leading Yorkshire estate agent, Dacre, Son & Hartley and will be ready to move into during early spring. They all offer very generous living areas, an exceptional specification and lovely views from the upper floors.
The remaining homes will now be released for sale over the coming weeks, following the launch of one of the penthouse apartments earlier this month. The superb two bedroom home, which is priced at £432,500, benefits from lift access and a westerly facing balcony with panoramic views, and is already attracting high levels of interest.
Patrick McCutcheon, head of residential at Dacre, Son & Hartley, said:
“Yorplace and Square Feet have a superb reputation throughout Wharfedale and the surrounding area for transforming grand buildings into stunning developments that always prove popular with buyers looking for a very special new home.
“Langbar House certainly fits into this mould and genuinely stands out from the crowd. Each home benefits from a stunning, comprehensive and well-considered specification, with many offering lovely views across Ilkley to the moors and countryside beyond. We’ve therefore generated a significant amount of interest from potential buyers looking for a beautiful home in a convenient and highly desirable location, and have already sold half of the apartments, including one that we only launched on Boxing Day.
“The development is also in a perfect spot, overlooking The Grove, with all Ilkley’s cafes, shops, bars, restaurants and railway station on the doorstep, as well as being just over a mile away from the famous Cow & Calf and its magnificent surrounding countryside. It’s therefore unlikely that the penthouse that’s currently available, and the remaining properties which will be released imminently, will be available for long.”
