Driveway for several cars and a longer-than-average detached garage

This 1930s semi-detached house occupies a rare corner plot in a quiet cul-de-sac, offering gardens to three sides and scope for significant enlargement (subject to planning). The current side extension and longer-than-average detached garage already provide generous footprint and off-street parking for several cars. Internally there are three bedrooms, a bay-front lounge and a larger-than-average dining kitchen with adjacent utility, making the layout practical for family life from day one.
The location will appeal to families and first-time buyers: highly regarded schools are close by, local amenities at Street Lane, Moor Allerton and Moortown Corner are easily accessible, and frequent public transport links reach Leeds city centre. The neighbourhood is very affluent with low crime, good mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for homeworking and modern family needs.
The property is sold freehold and chain-free, which simplifies moving. That said, the house needs updating: the kitchen dates from the 1970s and would benefit from modernisation, the heating is warm-air mains gas rather than central heating radiators, and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated. These points present clear renovation opportunities to add value — opening up the kitchen/dining to create a large open-plan family space is an obvious improvement.
Overall this home offers immediate functionality with strong long-term potential. Buyers seeking a move-in-with-improvements family property in a sought-after LS17 location will find this a compelling canvas: comfortable now, with scope to modernise and extend (subject to necessary planning consents) to suit growing household needs.
