This elegant five-bedroom Edwardian townhouse on Oakwood Drive combines original period character with a high-spec recent refurbishment. Spacious reception rooms, high ceilings and feature fireplaces preserve the house’s historic charm while the open-plan kitchen, underfloor heating and modern appliances deliver contemporary family living. A converted basement provides a versatile cinema room and utility, adding practical space for everyday life.
Set on a highly regarded, tree-lined avenue within walking distance of Roundhay Park and Oakwood Parade, the location is strong for families—Roundhay High School catchment and several well-rated primaries nearby. The rear garden, deck and level access from the basement create useful indoor–outdoor flow, though the plot is small and external space is limited compared with larger suburban gardens.
Practical details: the property is freehold, double-glazed (post-2002) and gas-heated via a boiler and radiators. The solid brick walls likely have no cavity insulation (assumed), which could mean higher heating costs unless improved. Crime levels are above average in the area; buyers should consider security measures.
This house suits buyers seeking a sizeable family home with period features, modern convenience and excellent local amenities. It will especially appeal to families wanting close access to top schools and parkland, or buyers looking for a character-filled, move-in-ready property with potential to further personalise finishes.
