The IMPRESSIVE SIZE of this MOST APPEALING TOWN HOUSE RESIDENCE is impossible to assess from the outside and AN INTERNAL INSPECTION IS ESSENTIAL to appreciate the INTERESTINGLY ARRANGED ACCOMMODATION - OVER THREE FLOORS with INDIVIDUALITY IN THE LAYOUT and MUCH CHARM and CHARACTER plus a degree of versatility in the way in which some of the rooms can be used. This LOVELY HOME, which, would be equally suitable for a couple or family, offers AN IDEAL FIRST PURCHASE OPPORTUNITY and benefits from VERY TASTEFUL IMPROVEMENTS carried out by our clients, and includes THREE DOUBLE BEDROOMS if required. The FULL WIDTH WINDOWS provide EXCELLENT NATURAL LIGHT to the rooms - some of which have exposed stripped and varnished floorboards, creating additional interest and character. This UNUSUALLY STYLED HOME, which, was designed by Derek Walker Architects about 1968 (who later became the chief architect and planner of the new city of Milton Keynes), is situated in a little-known yet very convenient location barely 100 paces from one of the entrances to the local park - which has tennis courts, a bowling green and children's recreational facilities (swings and slides, etc), and also Bracken Edge Primary School. The property is also within easy reach of Chapel Allerton Primary School and we understand is currently within the catchment area of Roundhay Secondary School. The "vibrant" Chapel Allerton centre is within walking distance or a short drive by car, and offers an excellent choice of shopping facilities and other family amenities, as well as traditional flagged floor pubs, popular restaurants and cafe bars. There are public transport facilities to Leeds on Harrogate Road - which is within very easy walking distance, as well as the local shopping parade and Lidl supermarket.
DIRECTIONS: FROM CHAPEL ALLERTON CENTRE (at the junction of Harrogate Road and Stainbeck Lane) proceed forward on Harrogate Road in a southerly direction for approximately two thirds of a mile and then turn left at the traffic lights into Harehills Lane (at the junction with King George Avenue). About a fifth of a mile along on Harehills Lane and IMMEDIATELY BEFORE the pedestrian traffic lights, turn right into Newton Road and a short way along take the second entrance into Newton Garth, which is on the left.
