Summary - 24 WETHERBY ROAD LEEDS LS8 2QD
7 bed 3 bath Detached
Spacious family home with huge renovation potential near Roundhay Park.
Seven bedroom period detached with Tudor/Edwardian styling
An impressive Victorian/Tudor‑style detached house on a large, elevated plot in sought‑after Roundhay. Grand period features — an original formal staircase, stained glass, tall bay windows and high ceilings — give the house strong character and plenty of living space across multiple floors, including a self‑contained one‑bed annexe and extensive cellar. The plot includes a long front garden/terrace, private rear garden and driveway parking for several cars, all minutes from Roundhay Park and local schools.
The property is sold freehold but requires comprehensive renovation to realise its potential. Structural fabric appears sound, but walls are likely uninsulated (traditional stone construction) and the house will need modernisation of services, finishes and heating controls to meet current standards. There are seven bedrooms and multiple reception rooms, with a ballroom/snooker room offering scope to reconfigure into larger en‑suite bedrooms or additional living space.
This is a strong proposition for a family seeking a large period home near outstanding schools and parkland, or for a buyer prepared to invest in renovation to create a bespoke residence. Be aware of high running costs: substantial space, an older heating system, and council tax banding will add to ongoing expenditure. Buyers should budget for refurbishment and consider professional surveys before offer.
