Characterful three-bed semi with modern bathroom and easy Leeds links.
Three bedrooms plus office area across four floors
This well-presented Victorian semi-detached house on Whingate Grove offers four floors of versatile living across approximately 1,204 sq ft. Arranged with two reception rooms, a generous kitchen-diner, an office area and three bedrooms, the layout suits first-time buyers or couples seeking space near Leeds with an easy commute. The finish is described as 'ready to move into' with contemporary bathroom fittings and retained period features such as a bay window and original fireplace.
Externally the house sits on a small corner plot with a low-maintenance garden. Practical details include mains gas central heating, double glazing and freehold tenure; council tax band A keeps running costs low. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, making the home well-suited to remote working and everyday connectivity.
Buyers should note the wider area indicators: the neighbourhood has higher-than-average crime and is in a very deprived area, which may affect resale and insurance costs. The property’s solid-brick walls likely lack cavity insulation (as-built), so upgrading wall insulation should be considered to improve thermal efficiency and reduce future bills. The plot is very small, so outdoor space is limited.
Overall this is a characterful, practical home in a convenient Leeds location. It blends period charm with contemporary presentation, offering affordable council tax and flexible living space — while requiring sensible energy-efficiency improvements and accepting local area challenges.
