EweMove is delighted to bring to the market this truly outstanding period home. Dating back to circa 1840, this unique residence presents a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of local history. It has been beautifully restored to balance a wealth of original character with the sleek, contemporary amenities required for modern family life.

GROUND FLOOR ACCOMMODATION:

Entrance & Hallway: Upon entering via the welcoming porch, you are greeted by an impressive hallway. This space offers an immediate sense of grandeur and volume that sets the tone for the rest of the property.

Formal Reception Room: Positioned to the front elevation, the formal lounge is a sanctuary of calm. The room is bathed in natural light thanks to sash windows on two aspects. The focal point of the room is a charming wood burning stove, perfect for cosy winter evenings.

Open-Plan Kitchen & Dining: To the rear lies the true heart of this home: a stunning, open-plan modern dining kitchen designed for entertaining. Fitted with sleek high-gloss cabinetry, the space boasts:

• A large central island with a breakfast bar.

• Ample floor space for a formal dining table.

• Integrated dishwasher and a stainless steel sink/drainer.

• Space for an American-style fridge-freezer.

• A show-stopping space for a range cooker, set into the original chimney breast with an exposed stone lintel.

Utility & Cellar: Practicality is key in this family home. A separate utility room keeps laundry appliances out of sight, accompanied by a convenient ground floor WC. From the kitchen, there is access to a useful cellar. Currently ideal for storage, this space offers exciting potential for conversion into a cinema room, gym, or playroom.

FIRST FLOOR ACCOMMODATION:

The first-floor landing gives access to three well-appointed bedrooms, comprised of two generous doubles and a versatile single:

• Bedroom 2 & Bedroom 4: Positioned to the front of the property, these rooms (one a generous double, the other a single/home office) are west-facing. They benefit from uninterrupted views over fields and farmland—the perfect vantage point for stunning sunsets.

• Bedroom 3: A further generous double bedroom completes the sleeping accommodation on this level.

Family Bathroom: Exceptionally spacious, the stylish family bathroom features a four-piece suite including a freestanding roll-top bath, a separate walk-in shower, low flush WC, and hand wash basin. The room is finished with contemporary part-tiled surrounds.

SECOND FLOOR PRINCIPAL SUITE:

The top floor is dedicated entirely to the elegant principal suite. This private haven features bespoke fitted wardrobes and access to useful eaves storage. It benefits from a luxurious en-suite shower room which has been recently renovated to a high standard.

LOCATION: 

Wakefield Road is nestled in the lovely commuter town of Garforth, offering the perfect blend of suburbia and city access. The area is exceptionally well-connected, boasting two train stations. You can enjoy fast, frequent services to Leeds City Centre in just 10–15 minutes, alongside direct links to York, Hull, and other key destinations. Plus, with the A1(M) and M1 motorways just a stone's throw away, traveling around the region is effortless.
