Overview

Homes like this rarely come to market. Set within the heart of Old Cookridge, this attractive 1930s Crowther-built detached bungalow occupies a generous south-east facing plot, offering excellent privacy and significant scope for extension, subject to the necessary planning permission and building regulations.

This beautifully presented home provides a superb opportunity to downsize without compromise—combining character, space and future potential within a peaceful, well-established setting.

Offering off-street parking, a single garage and a wonderful garden, this is a home that balances immediate comfort with long-term flexibility.

Bungalows of this calibre are seldom available, and this property has been thoughtfully arranged to maximise space, light and ease of living.

Accommodation

A wide, square entrance hall creates an immediate sense of space on arrival, ideal for welcoming guests. The home also retains its original internal doors, adding a touch of character and charm throughout. From here, a loft hatch with pull-down ladder leads to a converted loft space with two Velux windows and carpet, complete with power and lighting, providing excellent storage space and previously used as an occasional home office.

The living kitchen is a standout feature—immaculately presented and opening into the dining area, with a beautiful bay window providing space for a table comfortably seating six. A useful side lobby provides additional utility space with plumbing and space for white goods, together with direct access onto the garden.

The dual-aspect living room is a warm and inviting space, ideal for both relaxing evenings and spending time with family and friends, with a door to the rear garden.

There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, complemented by a contemporary wet room.

Outside

Externally, the property offers plentiful off-street parking to the front, along with a single garage complete with power, lighting and workbench.

The rear garden is a particular highlight—enjoying a south-east facing aspect and extending to approximately 0.127 acres. Beautifully maintained, it features a sun terrace, greenhouse and shed, offering a wonderful outdoor space to enjoy throughout the seasons.

Location

The location is equally impressive, with excellent access to Leeds, Harrogate and Leeds Bradford Airport. Cookridge Hall Golf Club is close by, along with scenic walks through Golden Acre Park and Paul’s Pond.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a well-positioned bungalow in one of North Leeds’ most desirable areas.

What do our customers say?

We recently helped our daughter buy her first flat and Tom and Liza Donnelly were incredibly helpful throughout. It was a long process through no fault of theirs and they were both always readily available to help with good humoured and useful advice.
Nick Phillips
Absolutly incredible from start to finish, moving house is ment to be stressful but when you work with a professional like Tom. They take the stress away, we sold out house for what we wanted, even in a tough market.
Scott Lowther
Tom and Lisa recently helped me sell a rental property in Pudsey. They were both a pleasure to deal with throughout the process. Their advice was excellent, there was no hard sell or false expectations and their communication was brilliant. The service was multiple levels better than that we received from a regular 'high street agent' during a previous sale. I highly recommend them and look forward to working with them again in the future.
Andy Norman
Tom was our first estate agent while looking for our first home and, in short, he has set the bar exceptionally high. We were always greeted with detailed documentation and a big smile! He is extremely knowledgeable of the properties and areas. You can tell he puts in a lot of effort to get to know the sellers and their property based on the information on the neighbourhood and community, and getting to know us as buyers.
Tom is always easy to contact and responds quickly, answering all our questions. We're still looking for our perfect property, but we always look forward to viewings with Tom!
Jessica Mowatt
My son recently purchased his first property through Tom Donnelly Estate Agency. It was an amazing service with step by step help for the first time buyers. Any queries or issues that arose was immediately dealt with very efficiently and with fantastic communication. I would highly recommend Tom and his sister Liza, as they made the whole process happen very smoothly and very quickly. They make a fabulous duo and would not hesitate to use them again. Thankyou so much to both of you for all your help.
Kathleen Heyhoe
Dealing with Tom has been a pleasure. From beginning to end, he did an excellent job at selling our home. He is highly professional, has excellent knowledge of the housing market, and goes the extra mile to work for the best result and experience for his clients.
We first met Tom when viewing a property and we were impressed by his friendly, personable and professional nature. It was great to deal with an estate agent who actually knew about the home and the position of the sellers.
Lucy and Stephen
I had the pleasure of working with Tom and Liz at Tom Donnelly Estates while purchasing my first house, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. In a market filled with slow, mismanaged, and unrealistic estate agents, Tom Donnelly Estates stand out for all the right reasons.
I highly recommend Tom Donnelly Estates to anyone looking to sell their house, especially if you want a quick, stress-free and seamless transaction.
Hamzah Ahmed
My partner and I recently purchased our first property where the sellers were being represented by Liza. She provided a much better service than I've experienced with other estate agents, making sure to communicate clearly and non aggressively. She was prompt and made things easy to organise (viewings, survey etc.) so would recommend.
Alice
Tom is an excellent estate agent who helped us to purchase our dream home and made the buying process as straightforward and stress-free as possible. We'd highly recommend Tom's services, knowledge and expertise to anyone.
