Description

A CHARACTERFUL FOUR BED EDWARDIAN SEMI, rarely available on the open market, and situated in a prime Roundhay location. FREEHOLD. Council Tax Band E.

GENERAL
On the market for the first time in 35 years, this much loved family home retains a wealth of charming period features and provides just over 2000 square feet of well-proportioned living accommodation laid out over three floors (plus the benefit of an undeveloped cellar). Having gas central heating and double glazing, the property briefly comprises: an entrance lobby and hallway, living room, dining room and a modern breakfast kitchen to the ground floor. There are two double bedrooms (one with a study area that could be converted into an en-suite), a separate WC and a stylish bathroom on the first floor. A further two double bedrooms are located on the second floor. The basement rooms are currently used for storage, although there may be potential to convert these into additional living accommodation if desired. To the front of the property is a shared driveway and a low maintenance garden bordered by a low profile wall. The shared driveway leads to the rear where there is off road private parking for at least one car. The enclosed rear garden features lawn and patio areas and is surrounded by well-established shrubs, vegetable patches and hedges. On street parking is unrestricted and the location of this house is superb, being equidistant to Roundhay, Oakwood and Chapel Allerton amenities and schools. These large Edwardian houses rarely come to market and an EARLY VIEWING IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
