Overview

Homes like this rarely come to market. Set within the heart of Old Cookridge, this attractive 1930s Crowther-built detached bungalow occupies a generous south-east facing plot, offering excellent privacy and significant scope for extension, subject to the necessary planning permission and building regulations.

This beautifully presented home provides a superb opportunity to downsize without compromise—combining character, space and future potential within a peaceful, well-established setting.

Offering off-street parking, a single garage and a wonderful garden, this is a home that balances immediate comfort with long-term flexibility.

Bungalows of this calibre are seldom available, and this property has been thoughtfully arranged to maximise space, light and ease of living.

Accommodation

A wide, square entrance hall creates an immediate sense of space on arrival, ideal for welcoming guests. The home also retains its original internal doors, adding a touch of character and charm throughout. From here, a loft hatch with pull-down ladder leads to a converted loft space with two Velux windows and carpet, complete with power and lighting, providing excellent storage space and previously used as an occasional home office.

The living kitchen is a standout feature—immaculately presented and opening into the dining area, with a beautiful bay window providing space for a table comfortably seating six. A useful side lobby provides additional utility space with plumbing and space for white goods, together with direct access onto the garden.

The dual-aspect living room is a warm and inviting space, ideal for both relaxing evenings and spending time with family and friends, with a door to the rear garden.

There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, complemented by a contemporary wet room.

Outside

Externally, the property offers plentiful off-street parking to the front, along with a single garage complete with power, lighting and workbench.

The rear garden is a particular highlight—enjoying a south-east facing aspect and extending to approximately 0.127 acres. Beautifully maintained, it features a sun terrace, greenhouse and shed, offering a wonderful outdoor space to enjoy throughout the seasons.

Location

The location is equally impressive, with excellent access to Leeds, Harrogate and Leeds Bradford Airport. Cookridge Hall Golf Club is close by, along with scenic walks through Golden Acre Park and Paul’s Pond.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a well-positioned bungalow in one of North Leeds’ most desirable areas.
