Dale Park Gardens, Cookridge, Leeds, LS16 7PT

Open Day - Saturday 27th June at 12:30pm; please email to book your viewing slot

Occupying a favourable position in a quiet cul-de-sac, this extended three double bedroom semi-detached home offers spacious and versatile accommodation, arranged over a split-level layout, with superb views across open countryside. The home offers approximately 1247 square feet of living accommodation.

The property has been materially improved during the current owner’s long-term ownership, including a single-storey rear extension, which provides a utility room with improved garden access; a greatly extended principal bedroom; and a balcony directly accessible from the lounge. In addition the former external boiler house has been  converted into an en-suite shower room and the whole roof was re-tiled in 2014.

The house is clean, tidy and well presented, allowing buyers to move in comfortably while still offering scope to put their own stamp on it over time.

Ground Floor Accommodation

The property is entered at ground floor level via a Rock composite front door, a branded security door designed to provide enhanced security. The entrance hallway offers coat hanging storage, access to a boarded loft space and a fully functional security alarm controlled via both a wall-mounted panel and mobile phone app.

The living room and dining area provide a bright, sociable and open-plan space, taking full advantage of the views across open countryside. A balcony, accessed directly from the living dining area, has been laid with artificial lawn, creating a low-maintenance outdoor seating area and a natural continuation of the internal living space.

Kitchen

The kitchen is functional and well arranged, though would now benefit from some cosmetic updating. It includes an integral gas oven and separate grill, gas hob with extractor over, freestanding space for a dishwasher, and recessed space for both a fridge and separate freezer.

There is a good range of eye and base-level units providing plenty of storage, tiled splashbacks and recessed LED spotlights to the ceiling. Like the living room, the kitchen enjoys attractive rural views over rolling countryside.

Lower Ground Floor Accommodation

From the ground floor, stairs lead down to the lower ground floor accommodation, where a wide landing with a useful storage cupboard sits adjacent to the family bathroom and leads to three well-proportioned double bedrooms, together with the utility room. 

Principal Bedroom

The principal bedroom has been extended to create a generously proportioned main bedroom, with additional space suitable for a home office, dressing area or quiet seating area. There are fitted wardrobes, along with French doors leading directly out to the north-west facing garden.

Bedrooms and En-Suite

The second bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room with WC and wash hand basin, cleverly created by incorporating one of two former external stores into the main accommodation. The electricity, gas and water meters are neatly accessed via an opening storage cupboard, which also houses the toilet cistern for the en-suite, creating a smart and functional finish.

Bedroom three is currently used as a home library, however, measuring approximately 10ft 10 by 8ft, it could comfortably accommodate a double bed. One of the great strengths of homes on the Dale Parks is that they offer three fair and usable bedrooms, something buyers often struggle to find on neighbouring estates where the third bedroom can feel more of a compromise.

Utility Room

The addition of the utility room has greatly improved the functionality of the home, allowing laundry appliances to be moved downstairs while creating additional space within the kitchen for storage and a dishwasher. The utility room includes plumbing for a washing machine, room for a tumble dryer, a sink unit and further useful storage.

The Ideal Vogue Combi C32 Gen 2 boiler is located within the utility room. It was installed in October 2024, has a full service history and has a warranty valid to 2032.

Family Bathroom

The family bathroom is a particularly good size, measuring approximately 10ft 4 by 6ft 10, and is fitted with a four-piece suite comprising a large bath, separate enclosed shower cubicle with boiler-fed shower, low-level WC and wash hand basin.

The room also benefits from underfloor heating, a heated towel rail, full tiling to the walls, waterproof panelling to the ceiling, shaver point, extractor fan and opaque glazed window to the rear. A vanity unit beneath the sink provides useful additional storage.

Storage

The property offers excellent storage, including an understairs cupboard, a boarded loft space, landing storage and further useful nooks and crannies associated with this style of home.

Outside

Externally, the property benefits from carport parking to the front.

To the rear, there is a well-maintained garden. The garden includes flower beds with herbaceous borders and mature shrubbery. There is a small patio area immediately as you step out into the rear garden, with paving continuing around to the side of the house.

One of the advantages of this particular stretch of houses on Dale Park Gardens is the elevated outlook created by the gradient of the land behind. This enables distant views from both floors of the house and even from the garden

A pathway with steps leads down adjacent to the carport, providing access to a useful external store measuring approximately 10ft 3 by 9ft 9. 

Location

Dale Park Gardens is ideally positioned within Cookridge, one of North Leeds’ most desirable residential areas. The location is particularly popular with families due to its proximity to well-regarded local schools, including Cookridge Primary School, Cookridge Holy Trinity School, Ralph Thoresby School and Horsforth School.

For outdoor enthusiasts, nearby Golden Acre Park, Otley Chevin Forest Park and the surrounding countryside provide excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and recreation.

Transport Links

Transport links are excellent, with Horsforth Train Station nearby, offering regular services into Leeds city centre and direct services from Horsforth to London Kings Cross.  Leeds Bradford Airport is also within easy reach, ideal for both commuters and those travelling further afield.
