The Location

Horsforth remains one of Leeds’ most sought-after suburbs, with a village atmosphere and a thriving community. Lanark Drive is ideally situated for access to highly regarded schools, independent shops, and an array of cafés, bars, and restaurants.

The property sits within catchment for Westbrook Lane Primary School, a one-form entry primary, and Horsforth School & Sixth Form, both just a ten-minute walk away and with excellent reputations. The home is also within walking distance of Leeds Trinity University.

The location truly offers the best of both worlds – lovely countryside walks are on your doorstep, while local amenities including cafés, pubs, and restaurants are also just a short stroll away. 

Commuters are well-served by Horsforth Train Station and nearby Kirkstall Forge, with easy links to Leeds, Harrogate and York. The A65 and Ring Road are also within close reach, making this a highly convenient yet peaceful place to call home.

The street itself is particularly appealing – a quiet, friendly, and welcoming neighbourhood made up of both families and retired couples.

The Accommodation

Ground Floor:

Positioned on an enviable corner plot in ever-desirable Lanark Drive, this elegant home has been thoughtfully reconfigured and beautifully modernised to create a stylish yet highly functional space for family living.

Entrance Hall

Step through the composite front door, complete with a side-panel window that floods the space with natural light, and you’re welcomed into a particularly spacious entrance hall – a standout feature of the home. The hardwood flooring creates a warm and practical finish, while the area itself offers plenty of room for coats, shoes, and general storage. A generous under-the-stairs cupboard provides an ideal spot for cleaning products and additional footwear, helping to keep the hallway neat and organised.

Living Kitchen

At the heart of the home is a generous open-plan kitchen and dining area, perfectly suited for modern family living and entertaining. The kitchen, recently replaced in 2021, features extensive work surface space with stylish upstands and full tiling to the recessed area for a range-style cooker. Classic Shaker-style units provide timeless appeal, with designated space for both a range cooker and an American-style fridge freezer.

A fitted bench in the dining area maximises floor space, while the wide and deep gap between the peninsula and dining area easily accommodates seating for four. French doors open directly onto a sun terrace, leading to the beautifully landscaped rear garden – ideal for summer dining and entertaining.

Additional kitchen highlights include a wine cooler and a 1½ bowl sink unit positioned to enjoy views over the garden. A tall floor-to-ceiling cupboard neatly houses the boiler and provides useful extra storage.

L-Shaped Living Room

Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen/diner is the spacious L-shaped lounge – a bright and inviting room flooded with natural light, thanks to a glazed internal door and two large windows offering open views across suburbia.

This flexible space has been configured in various ways over the years and comfortably accommodates two distinct living areas. One section centres around a cosy contemporary fireplace, creating a perfect spot for relaxation, while the other – located closer to the entrance hall – provides ample space for a formal dining table or an ideal home office setup.

Design touches include feature wall panelling and a radiator cover, adding to the room’s calm and cohesive aesthetic.

First Floor:

The thoughtfully designed dormer extension creates a spacious and light-filled first floor, offering three generous double bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom.

Bedroom One

The principal bedroom enjoys open views to the front of the property and features high-quality, bespoke fitted wardrobes, combining practicality with a refined finish.

Bedroom Two

The second bedroom is currently styled as a child’s room, complete with wood panelling to one wall. It comfortably accommodates a bed, wardrobe, and a den area, with ample floor space for play. This versatile room would also make an excellent guest bedroom and is large enough to accommodate a king-size bed if desired.

Bedroom Three

The third bedroom is another bright and spacious double, ideal as a bedroom, nursery, or home office.

Family Bathroom

While not newly installed, the bathroom has been tastefully updated in recent years, including a new radiator, new flooring, a new blind, and redecoration. It features a sleek ‘P’-shaped bath with a thermostatic shower over, designed to deliver an invigorating shower experience thanks to a powerful pressure-fed system. There is full tiling to all wet areas for practicality and easy maintenance, along with a contemporary heated towel rail for added comfort.

Outside & Parking

This home occupies a generous plot with gardens to three sides, offering excellent outdoor space for family living or those who enjoy entertaining. The driveway, side garden, and rear garden have all been professionally landscaped in recent years, creating attractive, low-maintenance spaces ideal for relaxing and socialising.

A pathway leads to a side porch, which serves as a useful de-bunking area as you enter the home –  perfect for storing coats, shoes, and outdoor gear.

• Additional features include a timber shed, an outside tap, and a side tap, adding practical convenience for garden maintenance.
• There is also scope to extend, subject to the necessary planning permissions, providing flexibility for future growth.
• To the front, a private driveway provides independently accessed off-street parking for up to four vehicles, offering both convenience and privacy.

In Summary

A rare opportunity to acquire a home that blends style, space and substance in one of the area’s finest locations. Immaculately presented and ready to move into, this is a home designed for real life – and one that truly stands out.
