Set on a large, private plot in a tree-lined Roundhay cul-de-sac, this double-fronted Victorian detached home (built 1898) offers generous family accommodation across multiple storeys. The house retains high ceilings, sash windows, decorative cornices and original joinery, with five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a cellar with good head height and a substantial detached double garage/workshop. The west-facing rear garden, mature planting and driveway parking for three to four cars are genuine lifestyle assets for family living and entertaining.
The layout suits a growing family: principal bedroom with en-suite and fitted wardrobes, three further double bedrooms and a large single on the first floor, plus sizeable reception rooms and a breakfast room with a log-burning stove on the ground floor. There is useful ancillary space in the cellar and loft; both offer realistic scope for conversion or extension (subject to planning and consents), matched by neighbouring examples.
Buyers should note the property has dated internal décor and will need modernisation to meet contemporary standards. Cavity walls are listed as having no insulation assumed, glazing is double but install date is unknown, and some structural/fit-out works would be needed to unlock cellar/loft development potential. Council tax details are not provided. Overall this is a characterful, substantial family house in a very affluent area, best suited to purchasers seeking period features with space to renovate and personalise.
