Description

Preston Baker are thrilled to offer to the market, for the first time in 36 years, this wonderful, four bedroom, two bathroom, detached family home on Southfield Drive, a quiet cul-de-sac just off Street Lane. Built in 1939, the home has retained lots of charm and original features.

"This has been a comfortable, cosy family home for us for many years. It has given us enough space to enjoy the varied interests families have and to entertain wider family and friends. A 10 minute drive can get you to the heart of the city, or out into beautiful countryside and on your way to the lovely Yorkshire Dales. We moved home a number of times before settling here, but this one was a keeper for over thirty years." - the current owner.

Step into this charming family home through a welcoming porch that leads into a impressive entrance hallway, with a wide, open staircase rising to the first floor. To your left is the spacious front reception room which is bay fronted and boasts original paneling and cornicing.

The rear of the property opens up into a larger reception room with original paneling and feature fireplace. The lounge provides access through double doors to a side conservatory, flooding the space with natural light. The conservatory offers a peaceful setting to enjoy views of the gardens whilst enjoying a morning coffee and has two sets of double doors to combine the space with the outdoors during warmer months. The kitchen features wooden wall and base cabinets for storage, space for appliances and enjoys views of the rear garden. From the kitchen there is access to a separate utility room, ideal for storage and currently housing the boiler. Also off the kitchen is a further room, currently set up as a study, which boasts an Aga stove for cooking that also provides hot water throughout the home. There is exciting potential to create a modern, open plan living, dining, kitchen area at the rear of the property. Also off the hallway is a large downstairs w/c, doubling up as a cloakroom.

Ascending to the first floor you are met by a spacious and bright hallway. The substantial, bay fronted master bedroom boasts fitted wardrobes and has the bonus of an en suite shower room, with further fitted storage. The second bedroom is a great sized double, with a bay window to the side elevation plus fitted wardrobes. There is a further bay fronted double bedroom to the front, and one single bedroom, both with fitted storage. A large loft space offers further development potential. A well-appointed house bathroom with fitted storage around the vanity area, and a separate w/c off the hall complete the upper floor layout.

This much-loved family residence has been cherished for 36 years and provides over 2,200 square feet of living space. The home has been very well maintained and offers excellent potential for modernisation. The property benefits from a newly installed boiler in 2023, with a hive thermostat system.

Externally, there is a pretty front garden, double driveways - one single and one double, and a double garage with electric door. To the rear, the large south/west facing rear garden offers excellent space for children and pets' play, relaxation and entertaining.

Situated in a peaceful cul-de-sac position adjacent to Street Lane, residents can enjoy a vibrant local area, with a wide array of cafes, restaurants, shops and amenities only a short stroll away. Additionally, highly regarded schooling options in the vicinity make this property an ideal choice for families looking for a place to call home. Green spaces include Moortown Park within walking distance, and a short drive takes you to Roundhay Park with its beautiful lakeside and woodland walks. Major retail options nearby include Moor Allerton Shopping Centre with a Sainburys supermarket, plus an M&S Food Hall at Moortown Corner.
