THE SETTING: Highfield Avenue is well positioned within a sought after location to the South side of Pontefract providing easy access to public transport routes and A1 and M62 motorway links. Primary and High schools are very close to this property (Larks Hill Junior and Infant School has just been awarded "outstanding" by Ofsted) and Pontefract town centre is a stones throw away with bars, eateries and supermarkets aplenty. Junction 32 shopping outlet and Xscape activity centre are a 10 minute drive and for those looking for countryside walks there are semi rural villages surrounding the property.

THE PROPERTY: The current owners have upgraded and maintained this property meticulously during their 9 years there and as you walk through the door you're greeted with a home that feels spacious and warm with neutral decor and quality fittings. The layout flows perfectly and is a great sized family home ready to move into!

The entrance hallway provides ample space to store coats and shoes with feature open staircase with modern panelling and doors leading off to all ground floor rooms. Off to the left is the main living room with large window bay window allowing for lots of natural light, feature fireplace and space for large furniture. Off to the right is another reception room which is a garage conversion currently used as a lounge but could equally make a great playroom for children, office space to work from home or craft/treatment room. To the rear of the property is in my opinion the heart of the home. The kitchen diner makes a great entertaining space with an open plan orangery providing access and views over the rear garden. The kitchen itself is quality and timeless with a range of ivory base and wall units, integral appliances, solid wood worktops and breakfast bar with space for several stools. The dining area provides space for a 6-8 seater dining table and chairs. The orangery is the perfect room for relaxing in after dinner with access out via patio doors to the enclosed rear garden. Off the kitchen is a handy utility room with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, worktop space for further portable appliances then access through to a downstairs cloakroom which completes the ground floor. Upstairs you're greeted with a spacious landing proving access to all first floor rooms. The master bedroom is spacious with modern decor and feature panelling, a stylish ensuite shower room is off to the right with separate shower cubicle, basin housed in vanity unit and wc. Two further spacious double bedrooms, a single bedroom and family bathroom with bath. separate shower cubicle, basin with storage underneath and wc complete the first floor.

OUTSIDE SPACE: To the front of the property there is a gated driveway for multiple vehicles finished in Indian stone and to the rear is a tree lined enclosed rear garden with lawn and patio area perfect for enjoying the summer months.

In summary this property needs to be viewed to appreciate the space and style on offer, call us to arrange a date and time!
