Dowgill House, Bondgate, Otley, LS21

This very important Grade II listed property was constructed in 1753 of stone and sits under a pitched York flagged roof. As the photographs show, there is a wealth of period charm with fine plasterwork, exposed timber and stonework, a Yorkshire range, sash windows etc, yet there has been a massive programme of improvement over the last couple of years to the property’s exceptional present standard. The layout is typically Georgian and double fronted with three substantial ground floor reception rooms, a large utility and WC; whilst to the upper storeys are six double bedrooms, four with ensuite facilities and a house bathroom. Dowgill House is situated in the heart of Otley centre set back behind stone setts which provide parking for several cars. To the rear is a private south facing walled garden, mainly laid to lawn with large established plants and 2 outbuildings for storage. This thriving market town provides an extensive range of quality shopping and recreational facilities. There are three national supermarkets and independent shops as well as highly regarded schools including the outstanding Prince Henry's Grammar School. The property is ideally placed for comfortable daily commuting to the surrounding business centres of both North and West Yorkshire whilst Leeds/Bradford International Airport is situated at nearby Yeadon and the railway station at Menston.
