Tucked away in what seems to be a safe and secure development stands this rather nice, 2 bedroom ground floor, purpose-built apartment that provides rather nice accommodation that would suit a couple or a single person.

The development is understood to have been built in the 1980s, and nestled away in private lawned and tree-lined grounds. They were designed for assisted living (if required) with a warden support system. To my knowledge, there are a total of 31 one and two-bedroom properties on the ground and first floors. All properties have their own front door with direct access from outside and often as not, the ground floor apartments have a small garden/seating area immediately accessed from the living room through the patio doors. An Estate Manager can be contacted from various points within each property in the case of an emergency. We understand that an Anchor call response system is set up for periods when the Estate Manager is off duty, providing 24-hour emergency response if required.


This apartment has a living room that has its own small garden/seating area just beyond the patio doors, and there are views over the grounds too. There is a separate kitchen, 2 bedrooms, and a bathroom. For those who wish to, there is the use of a communal laundry room, living room, and the potential for the use of the guest suite for visitor use although with 2 bedrooms you may not feel the need to.
What sets this property apart from others, is that there is a garage available with it too! It comes with the apartment and there is parking available in front of the garage door. Very useful and rather handy.


The tenure of the apartment is leasehold and currently, there are 83 years remaining, which will see me out! The apartment has its own independent, gas-fired central system and is double glazed.

This apartment is for people aged over 55 years. Please ask for details of the ground rent and service charges, if this is a property that you may be interested in. They are not particularly high in my opinion.


Now for the amenities...
Cookridge has continued to be popular and a sought-after location due to an abundance of these. Lots of different sizes and shapes of shops of all kinds ranging from supermarkets at Holt Park and Horsforth to the traditional corner shops, just about everywhere. Doctors, Dentists, and schools for children of all ages are catered for, within the immediate vicinity. Being on the edge of the countryside, there are numerous recreational facilities in proximity, and Horsforth and Cookridge golf clubs are closest. For those of you who wish to move at a faster pace of life, gyms and sports clubs too. If you throw into the mix, nice pubs, restaurants, and wine bars there is more than enough going on to suit most palates. For commuters, there are regular bus services, good road and rail links (Horsforth station) as well as Leeds and Bradford International airport.

      Broadband availability and predicted speed

      Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

      Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
      Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
      Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

      The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

      Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

      Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

      Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
      Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
      Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
      Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
      Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

      *Call rate information

      Calls to 0843 numbers will be charged at 4p/min from BT landlines. Calls from other networks may vary, and calls from mobiles and outside the UK will be higher. Calls to local numbers beginning with 01, 02 and 03 numbers will incur standard geographic charges from landlines and mobiles.
