4 bed detached house for sale

18 Magdalene Close, Lawnswood/Adel Border, Leeds LS16

Open viewing on Saturday the 31st of may. Book online/call 24/7 to reserve your appointment.

Well...viewing this property for the first time was certainly a very pleasant surprise for me indeed! If ever a property could not be judged from the outside, then this has to be one of the very best examples. Understood to have been built in 1982, and occupying an idyllic corner plot with loads of privacy and well-balanced, sizeable family accommodation, I can easily see why the current owners built this for themselves, and chose to live there for 42 years! It is very clear to see that a lot of thought and planning went into the design and creation of an excellent family home situated in a popular and sought-after leafy suburb of North Leeds. There is also the potential to extend into and above the attached garage and the views and privacy of the rooms and gardens are most advantageous. If you do not want 3 reception rooms, there's the potential to create what could be a fantastic Open Plan kitchen by knocking through into the dining room and inner lobby....now that would be great and would certainly add further value to what is already a rather special house. With nearly 1,500 square feet of accommodation, sited within the Lawnswood and Adel connerbation, this really is a super opportunity to purchase a home that you could really make your very own.

Having parked on the roadside or on the side driveway, your guided tour will start by entering through the side porch and into a bright, light and airy entrance hall. The first room on the right is the spacious dining room. Plenty of space to accommodate 8 diners and take in the private views too. At the end of the hallway, on the left, you will enter a rather elegant and sizeable living room...again...plenty of light and access straight into the conservatory that in turn, gives access into a private, sunny, enclosed, low maintenance back garden...check out the photos. At the end of the hallway to the right, is the dining kitchen, which enjoys delicious views to match those of the dining room. Beyond the kitchen is an inner lobby, guest cloakroom, front porch and external accesses to the front garden and side pathway.

The staircase from the hallway will whisk you effortlessly to the first-floor landing. The master and bedroom 4 enjoy the views over the trees beyond New Adel Lane (no houses opposite.) Bedrooms 2 and 3 are located at the back of the house and, like the other bedrooms, have private views over the back garden and beyond. The family bathroom is located opposite and offset from the staircase and has a white 4-piece suite.

Now for the amenities...Adel is considered to be a popular and sought-after leafy suburb within North Leeds. The main arterial roads give easy access to Horsforth, Moortown, Chapel Allerton, Headingley, and Bramhope. Leeds city centre and access to the motorway networks, and of course, Leeds and Bradford International airport is a few miles away. Public transport is on hand and there is a selection of schools in proximity, catering for children of all ages. Private schooling and nurseries too. Apart from good shopping, restaurants, pubs, and wine bars, there are lots of sports clubs to visit in order to work off those overindulgence.

The vibrant Adel Village Memorial Club, The Village, David Lloyd, and Chapel Allerton Lawn Tennis and Squash Club to name just a few. Also of local interest is Golden Acre Park, the Canal Gardens at Roundhay, and the famous Roundhay Park with its' twin lakes. There are at least 6 good golf courses within a few miles, including Headingley Gold Club within a 5-minute walk. A 30-minute drive North will take you out into beautiful North Yorkshire countryside ... A true gem of the County!

So there you have it...A house that you must simply add to the very top of your house-junting shopping list. Please go online or call 24/7 to reserve your viewing slot and I will see you at the Open Day viewing.
