A well-located detached family home in Shadwell village, offering comfortable, traditional accommodation across approximately 1,557 sq ft. The ground floor centres on a bright breakfast kitchen that connects to a spacious living room with oak beams and a cosy window seat — a relaxed family space for daily life and entertaining. Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms and a modern house bathroom, useful for a growing family or a home office setup.
Exterior benefits include a gated private driveway and a sociable roof terrace that extends living space outdoors — ideal for summer evenings and small gatherings. The plot is small and the garden/patio areas are best suited to low-maintenance outdoor living rather than extensive landscaping.
Practical points to note: the property dates from the early 20th century (c.1900–1929) and external walls are sandstone/limestone with assumed no added insulation, so thermal improvements are possible. The EPC is rated E and council tax is above average. Tenure information is not provided and should be confirmed. These factors mean some upgrading (insulation, energy efficiency) and routine maintenance may be needed.
Situated in an affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, the house sits about six miles from Leeds city centre with good road links. Local schooling options include nearby primary provision rated 'requires improvement' and several strong secondary/independent options within a short drive, making this an appealing choice for families seeking village life with city access.
