The Location & Home - Leeds is widely regarded as one of the UK’s most dynamic cities, offering an outstanding range of amenities, including award-winning restaurants, stylish bars, extensive shopping facilities, and a thriving cultural scene with theatres, galleries, and live music venues. Excellent transport links and highly regarded schools further enhance its appeal, while nearby Chapel Allerton provides a charming, community feel with independent cafés, restaurants, and green spaces—making this a highly desirable location for families and professionals alike.

Occupying a generous plot, the property offers expansive and versatile accommodation across three spacious floors, in addition to a vast basement that spans the full footprint of the home. This impressive lower level, currently divided into several rooms, presents an exciting opportunity for further development—whether into additional living space, a home gym, cinema room, or even a bespoke leisure suite (subject to the necessary consents). This untapped potential adds significant long-term value and appeal.

A particularly attractive feature is the self-contained duplex flat to the rear. Split over two floors and comprising its own kitchen, living room, bathroom, bedroom, and storage room, it offers exceptional flexibility. Whether used as a rental investment to generate additional income, accommodation for extended family, a private guest suite, or even a dedicated home office, it represents a highly desirable and practical addition that enhances both lifestyle and investment potential.

A perfect space for both everyday living and entertaining.
