THE VERY IMPRESSIVE SIZE of this IMPOSING and MOST APPEALING, LARGER STYLE SEMI-DETACHED RESIDENCE is impossible to assess from the outside and therefore an internal inspection is essential to appreciate the GENEROUS FAMILY ACCOMMODATION - ARRANGED OVER THREE FLOORS. This LOVELY FAMILY HOME has the advantage of a "CONSERVATORY" STYLE RELAXATION ROOM which provides valuable additional reception space and which, when combined with the ELEGANT SITTING ROOM OF EXCELLENT SIZE is ideal for relaxed family living and also for entertaining, particularly for parties and larger family gatherings. THE VERY TASTEFUL and IMAGINATIVE CONVERSION OF THE LOFT has created a SUPERB "STUDIO" STYLE BEDROOM with adjacent SECOND BATHROOM providing a virtually "EN-SUITE" FACILITY and would be ideal for guests or for a teenager within the family to have their own separate private space. The VERY WELL PRESENTED FAMILY ACCOMMODATION has WELL LIT ROOMS OF GENEROUS PROPORTIONS with some LOVELY ORIGINAL FEATURES, creating a degree of CHARM and CHARACTER and these have been successfully and sympathetically combined with light tasteful mainly neutral internal decorations to create a home with INDIVIDUALITY and which is "READ TO WALK-INTO" and has the benefit of NO CHAIN ABOVE. DELIGHTFULLY SITUATED in this long tree-lined cul-de-sac with an interesting variety of very established trees and grass verges, enhancing the appeal of the location, the property is also very conveniently placed within easy walking distance of the "vibrant" Headingley centre with excellent local amenities. FURTHER ENHANCED by the VERY PLEASANT, FAIRLY PRIVATE REAR GARDEN, the property also has the advantage of AN INDEPENDANT ADDITIONAL CAR STANDING SPACE (adjacent to the front door) and A LARGER GARAGE approximately 20'6" x 11'0" (measured internally).

AMENITIES:
The property is situated in this sought after residential location, to the north-west of Leeds (barely five miles from the city centre) and just on the fringe of the "VIBRANT" AREA OF HEADINGLEY. It is ideally placed for comfortable daily commuting, by car, to the other commercial centre of Bradford as well as the former spa towns of Harrogate and Ilkley. There are regular public transport facilities to Leeds city centre, via Headingley and the university on the nearby Otley Road - which is only a few minutes walk. An excellent choice of shopping facilities can be found in Headingley as well as other good local family amenities and there is also a mix of trendy bars and traditional pubs, as well as wine bars, popular restaurants and a large choice of other eating places. Other leisure facilities in the area include Cottage Road Cinema and both the Headingley cricket and rugby grounds within relatively easy walking distance.
