Description

AN OUTSTANDING and RARE OPPORTUNITY for a larger growing family, in this sought after and very convenient location, to purchase this IMPOSING, INDIVIDUAL, DOUBLE FRONTED DETACHED RESIDENCE built in the EDWARDIAN ERA (1907) and the MOST IMPRESSIVE SIZE of which is impossible to assess and appreciate from outside, as it has BEEN VERY TASTEFULLY EXTENDED at both ground and first floor level to provide EXCELLENT ADDITIONAL SPACE. This LOVELY FAMILY HOME, which, has been in the same HAPPY OWNERSHIP with obvious pride and pleasure, for some 46 years, has also been IMAGINATIVELY ALTERED INTERNALLY to create A SUPERB LIVING-DINING KITCHEN (very tastefully re-fitted in 2020 and including several AEG appliances) and with an adjoining SITTING-RELAXATION AREA in a CONTEMPORARY OPEN PLAN ARRANGEMENT which is ideal for relaxed family living and also for entertaining, particularly for parties and larger family gatherings. Our client has SUCCESSFULLY and SYMPATHETICALLY COMBINED THE LOVELY ORIGINAL PERIOD FEATURES with a CONTEMPORARY STYLE IN PARTS OF THE PROPERTY to create A VERY INDIVIDUAL HOME with MUCH CHARM and CHARACTER and which includes IMPRESSIVE HIGH CORNICED CEILINGS, SEVERAL ORIGINAL DOORS and BEAUTIFUL STAINED GLASS LEADED WINDOWS in the entrance, and the VERY GENEROUS WINDOW SPACE affords EXCELLENT NATURAL LIGHT to the rooms and the ground floor windows are WELL SCREENED from the road by neat established conifer hedges. The property is FURTHER ENHANCED by the DELIGHTFUL SEMI-RURAL OUTLOOK to fields and established trees, which attract an interesting variety of birdlife and wildlife to observe and enjoy in this lovely setting and the rear enjoys a SOUTH-WESTERLY FACING ASPECT. There is also a TWO-CAR (side by side) GARAGE and a WIDE DRIVEWAY offering potential space to STAND TWO ADDITIONAL CARS (side by side).

AMENITIES:

FARSLEY, which, was once A MEDIEVAL VILLAGE, is renowned for its Victorian architecture and community events and is very conveniently located approximately seven miles west of Leeds and approximately five miles east of Bradford and is ideally placed for comfortable daily commuting, by car, to both of these commercial centres. It is also only a short drive from Pudsey market town from where there are useful rail links to Leeds and Bradford Interchange. The property is within relatively easy walking distance of Farsley Town Street with excellent local shopping facilities and a choice of public houses and popular eating places. There is also a park with children's recreational facilities (swings and slides, etc). Farsley Celtic Football Club is only several minutes drive by car. The property is also barely five minutes drive from the Ring Road and less than 10 minutes from Leeds/Bradford Road in the other direction.

'

THE ADJACENT VILLAGE OF RODLEY is within easy walking distance and also has a local park with children's recreational facilities, a choice of shopping facilities and other amenities and there is also access from Rodley to delightful canal side walks and rambles and RODLEY NATURE RESERVE. Kirkstall and Leeds are a relatively easy and interesting cycle ride along the canal, from Rodley, as an alternative to driving or public transport.

DIRECTIONS:

FROM THE TOP OF NEW ROAD SIDE IN HORSFORTH proceed on the ring road (A6120) and continue forward at the next set of traffic lights and roundabout (at the junction with Rodley and Calverley) for approximately half a mile and turn left into Calverley Lane. Proceed forward on Calverley Lane, passing the park on the right, when Bagley Lane is then approximately one third of a mile along on the left OPPOSITE THE FLEECE PUBLIC HOUSE. "Glen Villa" is then about half a mile along on the left.

ACCOMMODATION:

The property, which, has UPVC DOUBLE GLAZED SEALED UNIT WINDOWS also has THE BENEFIT of AN AIR-SOURCE HEAT PUMP which uses air to water technology to provide the convenience of CENTRAL HEATING via FAMILIAR RADIATORS and CONTROLS and in addition PRODUCES THE DOMESTIC HOT WATER.

THE SYSTEM is DRIVEN BY ELECTRICITY and we are informed is MORE EFFICIENT THAN A GAS BOILER and PRODUCES FEWER CO² EMISSIONS.

In addition to this, the property has THE ADVANTAGE of PHOTOVOLTAIC SOLAR PANELS ON THE ROOF which produce electricity from daylight to lower the usage of grid supplied electricity. This contributes towards the electricity used by the air-source heat pump. There is NO MAINS GAS SUPPLY INTO THE PROPERTY.
