A DELIGHTFUL FIVE BED TWO BATH EDWARDIAN DETACHED FAMILY HOME in a prime Roundhay location. FREEHOLD. Council Tax Band F.

GENERAL
This much loved family home of over 40 years is presented to the market in move-in condition and provides a wonderful opportunity to purchase in a very sought after Roundhay location. With living accommodation arranged over 3 floors (plus the benefit of an undeveloped cellar), the property comprises: a welcoming entrance lobby and hallway, a bay fronted living room, a separate dining room and a kitchen diner to the ground floor. There are two double bedrooms, a single bedroom/study, a guest WC and a bathroom with a separate shower cubicle to the first floor. Two further double bedrooms and a shower room are located on the second floor. The property has gas central heating and is fully double glazed throughout. 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 it widens to provide private parking for at least one car. The charming rear garden features lawn and patio areas and is surrounded by well-established shrubs, flower beds 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.
