Horsforth is also known for its social scene, with popular spots such as Granville’s Gin Bar, the welcoming Brownlee Arms and the Fox & Hounds at the bottom of Tinshill Lane. 

For leisure, residents can enjoy Cookridge Hall Golf Course, the Bannatyne Health Club with swimming and gym facilities, and beautiful countryside walks just a short distance away. Excellent road links are available via the A6120 Ring Road and A65, while Leeds Bradford Airport is a short drive away, making both national and international travel highly convenient.

Accommodation

At a time when the cost of extending is at an all-time high, this home truly shines, offering large, light-filled reception rooms and flexible living accommodation that can easily adapt to suit family needs, including four bedrooms. The downstairs bedroom provides a valuable option for multi-generational living, guest accommodation or working from home.

Ground Floor:

At the front, a side porch doubles as a practical boot room, leading into the modern kitchen, fitted with an electric double oven and grill, induction hob with extractor, inset sink, ample storage, and space/plumbing for both dishwasher and fridge freezer. From here, stairs rise to the first floor.

The 22.5′ x 16.5′ living room is positioned at the front of the house, filled with light from two large double-glazed windows and offering generous scale. Well-kept throughout, it may only require a light cosmetic refresh.

The downstairs double bedroom (Bedroom 1) measures approx. 18′ x 12′, offering excellent flexibility. Formerly used as a reception space, it opens via sliding uPVC doors into the low-maintenance landscaped rear garden, secure and fully enclosed — ideal for families or those requiring accessible sleeping accommodation.

The downstairs bathroom offers a four-piece suite with bath, shower cubicle, wash basin and WC, complemented by a separate additional WC linking conveniently back around to the kitchen.

First Floor:

Upstairs, the property offers three well-presented bedrooms:

• Bedroom 2 is a generous double, complete with fitted wardrobes and useful eaves storage space.
• Bedroom 3 is another well-proportioned double, featuring bespoke fitted wardrobes and a storage cupboard.
• Bedroom 4 is a generous single bedroom, offering around 80 sq ft of living space. It could serve as a child’s bedroom, nursery, or dedicated home office.
• These bedrooms are served by a recently refurbished family shower room featuring a walk-in shower cubicle, full tiling to wet areas, wash basin, WC, and a heated towel rail.

Outside:

The property is approached via a gated driveway providing off-street parking and leading to a detached pitched-roof garage. To the rear of the garage is an adjoining utility room, complete with plumbing, venting for white goods, and a sink with hot and cold tap — adding excellent practicality.

At the bottom of the garden, a further detached outbuilding with pitched roof is fully equipped with power and lighting — ideal as a dedicated home office, gym, or creative studio.

The gardens themselves are private and landscaped for ease of care, offering plenty of scope for outdoor dining, children’s play, or relaxing in the sun. A sheltered west-facing summer house provides a lovely retreat to enjoy afternoon light and quiet reflection.
