Listed 20 Aug 2026 · Wakefield
Potters Croft is an impressive three bedroom detached family home which stands out immediately for the quality of its presentation, stylish contemporary finish and beautifully maintained gardens.
The accommodation extends to approximately 94.7 sq m / 1,020 sq ft and provides a well-balanced layout across two floors.
Entering through the central front door, the entrance hall provides access to both principal reception spaces and the staircase rising to the first floor.
To one side is the generous living room, a beautifully finished and comfortable reception space with soft neutral décor, recessed lighting and a wide front-facing bay window allowing plenty of natural light. A contemporary media wall with built-in display recesses provides a particularly smart focal point.
Across the hall is what is undoubtedly one of the property's standout features — the impressive kitchen/dining room.
Finished with an extensive range of grey shaker-style cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and metro tiled splashbacks, the kitchen has been designed around a substantial central island incorporating the sink and generous breakfast-bar seating. Integrated appliances, pendant lighting and excellent storage complete a sophisticated contemporary finish.
Large glazed doors open directly onto the rear garden, giving the room an excellent connection with the outside and making it particularly well suited to both family life and entertaining.
Upstairs, the landing provides access to three bedrooms and the shower room.
The principal bedroom is a generous double with extensive fitted wardrobes providing an exceptional amount of storage while maintaining plenty of usable floor space.
Bedroom two is another attractive and well-proportioned room, again benefiting from built-in storage, while bedroom three provides an ideal child's bedroom, guest room, nursery or home office.
The shower room has been finished in a striking contemporary style with large-format dark grey tiling, walk-in shower enclosure, WC and countertop wash basin set upon a fitted vanity unit.
Externally, the property is just as impressive.
The house is set back behind a particularly attractive lawned front garden, surrounded by established hedging, mature shrubs and colourful planting which gives the property excellent kerb appeal.
To the rear is a beautifully landscaped enclosed garden designed to offer plenty of usable space without becoming overly demanding to maintain. A large lawn provides room for children and pets while a paved terrace adjoining the house creates an ideal outdoor dining and entertaining area. Established hedge boundaries and modern timber screening add further privacy.
The property also benefits from garage and off-road parking, completing what is a particularly well-rounded family home.
For buyers searching for a detached property which requires very little work and offers the combination of presentation, gardens, parking and genuinely usable accommodation, 1 Potters Croft should be high on the viewing list.
Finished to an exceptional standard and ready to move straight into, this superb three bedroom detached home combines stylish contemporary interiors with beautifully maintained gardens. The standout kitchen/dining room with large central island is complemented by a spacious separate lounge, three good bedrooms, modern shower room, garage and parking, with approximately 1,020 sq ft of accommodation overall.
