About this home
From the moment you arrive, there is a lovely sense of space and privacy. A private driveway, lawned frontage and double garage create a smart and practical approach, before stepping inside to a bright, welcoming hallway where the open-tread staircase adds an immediate sense of character. A modern downstairs WC sits neatly to one side, setting the tone for a home that balances style with everyday ease. The rear of the property is where the home truly comes into its own. Designed as a generous open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, it offers a wonderfully sociable setting for family life, hosting and relaxed evenings at home. Imported Italian porcelain tiles with underfloor heating run throughout the kitchen, dining and living areas, bringing both elegance and comfort, while full-height patio doors frame the garden beautifully and allow natural light to pour in. The kitchen is modern, stylish and highly practical, centred around a generous island with an induction hob, excellent workspace and seating for relaxed breakfasts or evening drinks. Finished with granite worktops and a range of high-quality NEFF appliances, including an oven, microwave oven and warming drawer, the kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to balance everyday function with contemporary style. A wide range of modern cabinetry provides excellent storage, keeping the space feeling calm and uncluttered. The dining and living areas connect effortlessly, creating a sociable heart to the home. Double doors lead through to a versatile playroom, which could also work beautifully as a home office, music room, TV room or additional storage space, depending on your needs. A further separate reception room offers generous proportions and a more defined living space, ideal for relaxed evenings, film nights or entertaining. A well-equipped utility room adds further practicality to the ground floor, fitted with additional modern cabinetry, excellent storage and space for laundry essentials. The home has also benefitted from a full rewire, with a new roof due to be completed, adding further peace of mind for modern family living. Upstairs, the landing feels bright and open, with a full-height window drawing natural light onto the first floor. Four well-proportioned bedrooms sit on this level, offering flexibility for family life, with built-in wardrobes to all bedrooms providing excellent fitted storage. The principal bedroom is a particularly elegant retreat, complete with built-in wardrobes and a contemporary ensuite shower room, finished with modern tiling and a rainfall shower. The Porcelanosa main bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms and includes a bath with overhead shower, while two useful storage cupboards on the landing provide welcome everyday practicality. Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight. A landscaped paved terrace sits directly beyond the dining area, creating a natural extension of the downstairs living space, perfect for outdoor seating, summer entertaining and relaxed evenings beneath the surrounding trees. Beyond, a generous lawn stretches out, framed by mature planting that brings a wonderful sense of greenery, shelter and privacy. Perfectly positioned in Oakwood, the home is well placed for Roundhay’s excellent amenities, green spaces and everyday conveniences. The nearby field is a real attraction, offering a wonderful shortcut towards Roundhay Park, an easy route for dog walks and access towards St John’s Primary School, as well as a lovely social space for neighbours and families to gather. Roundhay Secondary School is also a key draw for families, while regular routes into Leeds city centre and wider road links make daily commuting simple. Nearby shops, cafés and parks all add to the area’s enduring family appeal.
