BENEFITING from MAGNIFICENT, PANORAMIC, DISTANT VIEWS which are a SPECTACULAR FEATURE of this SUPERB "PENTHOUSE" TOP (second) FLOOR APARTMENT, which has been created by AN IMAGINATIVE and VERY TASTEFUL CONVERSION of a VERY IMPOSING GRADE II LISTED BUILDING of VERY IMPRESSIVE "GOTHIC REVIVAL" style. Forming part of the second floor of this IMPOSING, INDIVIDUAL, DETACHED STONE RESIDENCE, built about 1875, and with THE ADVANTAGE OF NO-ONE ELSE ABOVE, Weetwood Manor is set on a COMMANDING ELEVATED SITE within A CONSERVATION AREA and is in a DELIGHTFUL LITTLE-KNOWN POSITION and yet is within relatively easy walking distance of the vibrant area of Headingley and the North Leeds ring road is barely half a mile away. The BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTED ACCOMMODATION which has some LOVELY ORIGINAL CHARACTER FEATURES, also has GENEROUS WINDOW SPACE affording EXCELLENT NATURAL LIGHT TO THE ROOMS (some of which have a DUAL ASPECT) and the apartment, which, has the further advantage of NO OTHER PROPERTIES' WINDOWS FACING ANY OF ITS WINDOWS, is being offered with IMMEDIATE VACANT POSSESSION and therefore NO CHAIN ABOVE. The WELL-PLANNED and VERY TASTEFULLY FITTED BREAKFAST-SNACK KITCHEN includes several appliances and the TWO DOUBLE BEDROOMS have fitted wardrobes. There are BRAND NEW FITTED CARPETS and this LOVELY HOME, which, would be ideal for a single person, business couple or even a small family (in terms of numbers) is "READY TO WALK-INTO" and AN IMMEDIATE INTERNAL INSPECTION IS VERY STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!
