A beautifully refurbished three-bedroom home on a quiet no-through road, enjoying elevated views towards Kirkstall Abbey from the second floor over charming stone terrace houses.

From the moment you arrive, it is clear this is a home that has been thoughtfully and meticulously renovated, offering a rare turnkey opportunity in a peaceful yet highly convenient setting.

First Impressions

First impressions really do set the tone, and this home delivers from the moment you arrive. Smart horizontal fence slats, a latch gate, and beautifully maintained front sun terrace create an immediate sense of care and pride, complemented by a modern composite entrance door.

The property has been meticulously renovated by the current owners since their purchase in 2020. This was not simply a project to add value, but to create a home to be enjoyed, and that intention is evident throughout. Where improvements have been made, they have been carried out to a high standard, with quality materials chosen to stand the test of time.

Living Space

Stepping inside, the living room is both elegant and welcoming, featuring tall ceilings, attractive cornicing, high skirting boards, and ample space for a three piece suite. A former fireplace has been sensitively covered, offering the option to reinstate should a future owner wish, though it was removed to suit family living.

Kitchen

The kitchen is particularly well designed, maximising both space and functionality. It includes a Bosch oven and induction hob, a full size dishwasher, sink unit, space for a fridge freezer, and a range of high and base level units with tiled splashbacks. All of this has been installed since the current owners acquired the property.

A door from the kitchen leads down to a two room cellar. While not currently converted, it offers good head height in excess of six feet. As expected with a cellar, there is some natural dampness, primarily due to its subterranean nature and the absence of tanking. However, air bricks are in place to allow ventilation and airflow, and a dehumidifier is currently used. The space remains very useful for storage. Several neighbouring properties have successfully converted their cellars into spacious dining kitchens, presenting an exciting opportunity for future enhancement if desired.

Bedrooms and Bathroom

To the first floor, the principal bedroom is a generous and calming space, enjoying far-reaching views across Kirkstall and beyond. There is a wonderful sense of openness, with a beautiful stone house directly opposite enhancing the outlook.

Also on this floor is a well-appointed family bathroom, fitted with a modern three-piece suite comprising a WC, wash hand basin, and a bath with shower over. The bathroom was replaced by the current owners and is finished in a stylish aesthetic, offering a bright and spacious feel.

The second floor offers two further bedrooms. One is a comfortable double with lovely elevated views towards Kirkstall Abbey, while the other is currently arranged as a nursery, equally suited as a home office or guest room.

Location

The property is ideally positioned for access to a wide range of local amenities and excellent transport links. It is within close proximity to both Kirkstall Forge and Headingley train stations, providing convenient connections into Leeds city centre and beyond.

Leeds city centre, the universities, and major hospitals are all easily accessible, making this an ideal location for a variety of buyers.

The area benefits from two nearby shopping precincts, as well as a wide selection of gyms, independent cafés, restaurants, and eateries, offering a vibrant and well served local community.

For those who enjoy outdoor space, Kirkstall Abbey and its surrounding parkland are within easy reach, along with the open green spaces off Kirkstall Road, providing beautiful grounds that are regularly enjoyed on warmer days.

Summary

Overall, the property stands out for its quality of finish and thoughtful renovation. Significant works carried out by the current owners include a new kitchen, new bathroom, new internal doors in keeping with the character of the home, updated flooring throughout, and full redecoration.

This is a true turnkey opportunity, ideal for first time buyers seeking a stylish and well cared for home in a highly convenient yet peaceful setting.
