Did Fanny and Johnny live here??

16th July 2007 Print
Did Fanny and Johnny live here?? Well they might have done – it has just the Cradock’s style of a 1950’s kitchen dream, perfectly preserved and ready to prepare all those colourful dishes the first TV cooks created after rationing was lifted, and replacing the apron with the evening gown.

Located in the popular village of Burley-in-Wharfedale just outside Ilkley in the Yorkshire Dales, a mid-terrace, 3 bedroom property reveals this hidden nugget of nostalgia, reminiscent of these days, and for sale by Dale Eddison.

A fully functioning 1950’s kitchen is offered in pristine condition, complete with original wooden fitted wall and matching base units in soft cream. The practical work surfaces in period blue Formica have been carefully maintained to preserve their mint condition. This is a rare gem, likely to have real meal appeal for a home owner with a true appreciation for and interest in the history of design.

12 Lawn Road is well placed in a popular residential neighbourhood within the heart of the sought after village of Burley-in-Wharfedale. Built in a local coursed stone under a pitched slate roof, the property stands within neat gardens to the front and fully enclosed rear. This property unusually has a detached garage which is accessed via a lane to the rear of the terrace. Internally the accommodation is arranged over two floors, and with gas central heating and uPVC double glazing. It has entrance hall, sitting room, kitchen, bathroom and three bedrooms. This property is offered with the advantage of no onward chain and is selling for £195.000.00.

So if you want to recapture the “Chez Bon Viveur” here is a real opportunity!
