Property description
An excellent opportunity, equally suitable for a business couple/retirement or even a small family (in terms of numbers) to purchase this MOST APPEALING "MEWS" STYLE TOWN HOUSE RESIDENCE forming part of an attractive short row of only three properties and set well back from the road in a semi-"courtyard" style setting at the front, on this exclusive and sought after development. Different in appearance from the two adjoining properties which creates a degree of individuality, the property offers WELL PRESENTED ACCOMMODATION - arranged in AN INTERESTING LAYOUT including two reception rooms on different floors, and from the dining room at ground floor level there is access to a "VERANDAH", and from the ELEGANT, WELL LIT THROUGH LOUNGE - at first floor level there is access via patio style doors to A BALCONY. The three bedrooms ALL HAVE FITTED WARDROBES and the third bedroom or home office (if preferred/required?) is of good size 8'10" x 7'0" (max). The IMPRESSIVE SIZE is impossible to assess from the outside and AN INTERNAL INSPECTION IS ESSENTIAL to appreciate the EXCELLENT SPACE and INDIVIDUALITY IN THE LAYOUT OF THE ACCOMMODATION - which has scope for a degree of modernisation and for which this REALISTIC PRICE HAS BEEN SET TO ALLOW FOR...and the property should respond well! Offered with the benefit of IMMEDIATE VACANT POSSESSION and therefore NO CHAIN ABOVE, the property, which, has AN INTEGRAL GARAGE, also has the further advantage of a PERMANENT CAR PORT plus ADDITIONAL CAR STANDING SPACE.
AMENITIES: The property is very conveniently situated in this much sought after residential location - which is ideally placed for comfortable daily commuting to Leeds city centre and yet is within very easy walking distance of delightful woodland rambles with an abundance of birdlife and wildlife to observe and enjoy. Lovely open countryside and a local golf course are also within relatively easy walking distance or a very short drive (about five minutes) by car. The property is also ideally placed for comfortable daily commuting, by car, to the other commercial centre of Bradford, the former spa towns of Harrogate and Ilkley and the historic, active market town of Otley. There are public transport facilities to Leeds city centre, via Headingley and the university, about ten minutes walking distance from the property. The famous Golden Acre Park is only several minutes drive and Leeds and Bradford Airport about 15-20 minutes drive. There are very popular primary schools in Adel (both of which are within relatively easy walking distance) as well as Ralph Thoresby Secondary School about two miles away. There is a small general store (for daily newspapers and milk, etc) about 10-15 minutes walking distance and local parades of shops in Adel - on the main Otley Road, include a Co-op with post office facility - a little over a mile away. More extensive shopping facilities can be found at Headingley, Horsforth, Moortown and Meanwood (offering a choice of supermarkets including Sainsbury's, Waitrose and Morrisons) and all of which are within approximately 15 minutes drive. Holt Park Centre (about ten minutes drive by car) includes an Asda supermarket and the recently opened "Holt Park Active" sports and leisure centre with swimming pool and sports hall.
DIRECTIONS: FROM THE TRAFFIC LIGHTS IN ADEL ON THE MAIN OTLEY ROAD (A660) turn into Church Lane (see the signpost Adel and Eccup) and barely 50 paces along turn left at the "T" junction into the continuation of Church Lane. Proceed forward for about one third of a mile and IMMEDIATELY BEYOND THE NORMAN CHURCH turn right into Back Church Lane - see the signpost Headingley Golf Club. Continue to the far end and at the "T" junction turn right into Long Causeway, then almost immediately left (opposite the pillar box) into East Causeway, when this property is then on the left - SET WELL BACK FROM THE ROAD.
ALTERNATIVE APPROACH: FROM OTLEY ROAD VIA ST HELENS LANE continue beyond the junction with Adel Lane and proceed to the "T" junction at the far end of St Helens Lane. Turn left at this "T" junction into Long Causeway and follow the road round to the left into the continuation of Long Causeway and proceed to the far end, when East Causeway is then on the right (opposite the pillar box).
