AMENITIES:

The apartment is located within the sought after HEADINGLEY CONSERVATION AREA to the north-west of Leeds and is in an extremely convenient position just on the fringe of the "vibrant" Headingley centre literally only a few minutes walk away. Consequently, it is within very easy reach of the excellent choice of shopping facilities and other amenities including a mix of trendy bars and traditional pubs as well as popular restaurants and many other eating places. Other leisure facilities in the area include Cottage Road Cinema (about 20 minutes walk) and both the Headingley cricket and rugby grounds are about 10 minutes walk away. The apartment is also ideally situated for easy daily commuting to Leeds and the university with regular bus services nearby, although both of which are also within relatively easy walking distance.

DIRECTIONS:

FROM THE TRAFFIC LIGHTS IN HEADINGLEY CENTRE - NEAR THE ARNDALE CENTRE (at the junction of North Lane and Otley Road) proceed forward on Otley Road in the direction of Leeds for barely one tenth of a mile, when Shire Oak Road is then on the left (see Signature Bar and Restaurant on the corner) and Moorbank Court is then towards the far end on the left SET WELL BACK and SCREENED FROM THE ROAD.
