Property description

The size of this MOST APPEALING SEMI-DETACHED RESIDENCE is impossible to assess from the outside and therefore an immediate internal inspection is strongly recommended to appreciate the WELL PROPORTIONED ACCOMMODATION with GENEROUS WINDOW SPACE affording very good natural light to the rooms. Occupying a DELIGHTFUL and VERY IMPRESSIVE, MAINLY PRIVATE CORNER SITE OF GOOD SIZE – which is well screened at the front and side, this lovely home benefits from AN EXTENDED RECEPTION HALL, A TASTEFULLY FITTED KITCHEN, A SUPERB CONSERVATORY – providing valuable additional reception space, and a GARAGE OF GOOD SIZE (16'4" x 13'8"). There are THREE BEDROOMS and a TILED BATHROOM with under floor heating. The property also has the advantage of NO VEHICULAR ACCESS AT THE FRONT, as there is AN ATTRACTIVE LONG and WIDE GRASSED AREA with a footpath on either side – enhancing the appeal of the location and creating distance to the properties opposite! The property offers AN EXCELLENT FIRST PURCHASE OPPORTUNITY and would be equally suitable for a couple or family. 

AMENITIES: Located in this popular residential area, to the north-west of Leeds (approximately 6-7 miles), the property is in a very convenient position for comfortable daily commuting, by car, to the commercial centres of Leeds and Bradford, as well as the former spa towns of Harrogate and Ilkley and the historic, active market town of Otley. It is also ideally situated for immediate access to Adel and very easy access to Cookridge, West Park and the North Leeds/West Park ring road, as well as the main Leeds/Otley Road (A660). There are regular public transport facilities to Leeds, within very easy walking distance of the property and Ireland Wood shopping parade – which includes a chemist and a post office is about ten minute's walking distance. More extensive shopping facilities can be found at Headingley, Horsforth, Moortown and Meanwood (with a choice of supermarkets) and all of which are within approximately 10-15 minutes' drive. Holt Park centre is only several minutes' walk from the property and includes an enlarged Asda supermarket. "Holt Park Active" Leisure Centre is also only a short walk and includes swimming pool and sport's hall. The famous Golden Acre Park is about two miles away and barely ten minutes' drive by car, as is delightful open countryside. Leeds and Bradford Airport is barely 15 minutes' drive by car. There are popular primary schools in the area – including Ireland Wood Primary School (literally a minutes' walk from the property!) and also Ralph Thoresby Secondary School – only several minutes' walk away. Horsforth railway station is within easy reach (a few minutes' drive by car) and provides useful rail links, for the commuter, to Leeds and Harrogate.  

DIRECTIONS: FROM THE TRAFFIC LIGHTS IN ADEL ON THE MAIN OTLEY ROAD (A660) turn into Farrar Lane (opposite the junction with Church Lane) and proceed on Farrar Lane for approximately half a mile – almost to the far end. Turn left into Raynell Drive and about 50 paces along at the roundabout follow the road right round to the right into Raynell Gardens, when the driveway to this property is then approximately 100 paces along on the right – IMMEDIATELY BEYOND THE LONG GRASSED AREA and opposite Ireland Wood Primary School.
