Description

Tucked away up a private driveway just off Gledhow Lane, this beautiful period cottage bungalow is one of the original buildings of the area, dating back to around 1870. The newly renovated property is sure to appeal to discerning downsizers, professional couples or even families looking for a great location close to popular schools.

The property has an attractive frontage with new aluminium windows in a period pebble grey colour and original limestone steps leading to the entrance. Inside are well proportioned rooms with high ceilings. A bright hallway with elegant mosaic tiles and high ceilings creates a warm and inviting first impression. To the right, the expansive master bedroom features fresh cream carpets, crisp white walls, and two large windows that flood the room with natural light. The ensuite bathroom offers a spa-like retreat with stone-effect tiles, silver fixtures, and a walk-in wet room style shower illuminated by a skylight. Further down the hallway is a versatile room, complete with high ceiling and a skylight, perfectly suited for use as a home office, hobby room, nursery or occasional single bedroom.

At the heart of the home is the living-dining room, where the cottage's traditional charm has been skilfully revealed. Gorgeous original wooden beams and an exposed brick fireplace evoke warmth and history, while a newly installed log burner adds character and comfort for cosy nights in. Lime-plastered walls and period-style column radiators perfectly blend old-world charm with modern convenience.

The living-dining room flows effortlessly into the lounge, which features bifold doors that open up the back of the house to the patio, seamlessly merging indoor and outdoor spaces. The natural stone-tiled patio is ideal for alfresco dining, and the lush garden beyond creates a private, serene retreat.

The generously proportioned kitchen is open to the dining space, creating a sociable area for entertaining. Featuring elegant tiles, limestone grey cabinetry with gold handles and gleaming white quartz countertops, it's both stylish and functional, with premium AEG cookers and hob, and integrated appliances neatly concealed for a sleek finish.

A third bedroom is a generous double boasting large, south facing windows, freshly painted walls, and plush cream carpets, offering a comfortable, light-filled space. The luxurious family bathroom includes stylish glazed tiling, gold fixtures, and a walk-in shower, adding a touch of elegance. Two separate cupboards offering invaluable storage space complete the internal accommodation.

Outside, is a manageable size private garden which has been landscaped with freshly laid grass and planted borders, creating a tranquil escape enclosed by a tall, heritage stone wall, established hedges and newly installed fencing. The property benefits from a pedestrian gate opening onto Lidgett Walk, a footpath leading past Roundhay High School to Roundhay Park. This entrance also offers convenient access in the direction of the local amenities of the Chandos Gardens parade which include a Post Office, chemist and cafe.

Nestled near the Gledhow Sports and Social Club, this home offers a prime setting just off Gledhow Lane, providing easy access to both Roundhay and Chapel Allerton. Excellent schools are just a short walk away, including Stepping Stone Nursery, Partou Lidgett Lane Day Nurseries, Kerr Mackie Primary School, and Gledhow Primary School. For older children, the rear entrance of the renowned Roundhay School is a mere 0.2 miles from your doorstep. Oakwood Lane Parade, Street Lane, and Chapel Allerton's vibrant Harrogate Road are all within easy reach, boasting a fantastic selection of independent cafes, restaurants, and bars, creating a lively and welcoming community atmosphere-perfect for all ages.
