Property description
A magnificent Penthouse Apartment offering two/three bedroom accommodation with breathtaking views across Wharfedale. Offering stylish and comprehensively appointed living accommodation including a generously proportioned balcony - all within a landmark period building.
St John's is one of Ilkley's prime landmark buildings - dating back to the growth of the town as a Victorian spa and designed by architect R Norman Shaw - famous for Scotland Yard in London and the White Star offices in Liverpool. St Johns has been carefully and sympathetically converted by Valedown Limited and is ideally positioned close to St Margaret's Church, a short walk from Ilkley's stunning moor and less than half a mile from the town centre. The town is home to a first class shopping environment complemented by a busy social round and a comprehensive range of sporting and recreational amenities. The stunning scenery that surrounds offers many an opportunity for rural pursuits and yet the town is only 17 miles from Leeds and just 16 miles from Bradford. There is a 'Metro' railway station which provides regular services throughout the day into both cities, whilst for those who need to travel further a field Leeds/Bradford International Airport is just a short drive away.
