Former Victorian reservoir is now a modern three-bedroom home
A former reservoir dating back to the early Victorian era has just entered the property market. The light-filled open-plan home in Wharfedale, Yorkshire, is set across one floor and has been converted by its current owners to create one of the most unique houses for sale.
‘Interior designed by Faye Robinson Interiors, the property combines original period features with modern living and occupies one of the most sought-after residential locations in the area,’ says Simon Wright, partner at Carter Jonas’ Harrogate office.
Aptly called The Old Reservoir, beautiful arches feature throughout, and a skylight provides plenty of natural light to create an inviting and expansive modern home. The main living room opens up to a sleek kitchen, with all the latest appliances and space to gather with friends and family. There's additional seating around the central kitchen island and a mix of glossy and traditional finishes, echoing the overall style of the home.
Just steps away, you'll find a large dining space with room for at least eight to gather, as well as a formal sitting room towards the rear of the property.
The central atrium living room leads directly into each of the home's three bedrooms, with the main bedroom boasting an ensuite. Bedrooms two and three flank an impressive shower room, creating a luxurious hotel-like feel.
With mature trees enveloping the home, a substantial central patio with elegant landscaping defines the outdoor area, providing plenty of space to recline in the warmer weather or to dine alfresco.
Situated in the pretty and charming village of Burley in Wharfedale, it's ideally located almost at equal distance from Ilkley and Otley, where you’ll find a vast array of shops, pubs and restaurants. The countryside setting offers lots of green spaces to walk, cycle or golf, with a local primary school and sports club nearby.
‘Offering some 2,163 sq ft of living accommodation, including three bedrooms, a garage, and private landscaped gardens and woodland, The Old Reservoir provides the opportunity to live somewhere truly unique,' adds Simon.
The property is currently on the market for £1,250,000 with Carter Jonas.
