A rare Grade II Listed Gothic/Tudor Revival manor dating from 1881, set in circa 10.1 acres with the principal house extending to about 17,528 sq ft. The estate includes a fine Coach House, two cottages requiring renovation, and several single-storey outbuildings — offering strong scope for a private family estate or a high-quality residential development, subject to consents. The site benefits from secure automatic gates, intercom access and separate gated courtyard access to the principal residence.
The house retains notable period character: tall ceilings, large rooms, ornate stonework and multiple chimneys. Its scale and landscaped grounds offer privacy and scope for leisure, formal gardens or ancillary uses. Local amenities and schools are close by (including an Outstanding primary and several good secondaries); Leeds city centre, the Outer Ring Road and Leeds Bradford Airport are within easy reach.
Material constraints are significant and must be factored into any purchase. The Grade II listing will restrict alterations and requires specialist consent for many works. Two cottages are currently in need of renovation; the overall estate will demand ongoing, high-cost maintenance and likely specialist restoration. Planning permission would be needed for redevelopment or subdivision, and carrying costs (repairs, insurance, utilities for a very large historic fabric) should be anticipated.
This property suits a buyer prepared for long-term stewardship or a developer able to navigate listed-building consent and planning processes. For those who value historic character, extensive private grounds and proximity to city amenities, the estate presents an uncommon opportunity, but it is neither a turnkey home nor a simple conversion project.
