Description
Well...they always say there are 3 things that you should consider when looking to buy a property...LOCATION...LOCATION...LOCATION...and...this has all 3! Jackman Drive is situated mid-way along Outwood Lane...considered to be one of the prime addresses in Horsforth. Don't take my word for it though...pop out for a look-see for yourself.
So...what is it that we are selling here, you may ask? Well...it is a little unusual in its design...technically, it would be classed as an end terraced (1 of 3) dormer-style bungalow.
Apart from the location, its micro position is rather special, in that there is woodland across the road opposite and allotments over to the right, at the back...take a look on Google Earth. The property is much larger than it looks too (check out the floor plan).
So having parked on the roadside or on the driveway, your guided tour starts by proceeding to the front door and entering into a small porch, which in turn, opens into the hallway. First on the right will take you into an elegant living room which has private views over the garden and copse/woodland opposite. Across the hallway, opposite the Living room is the master bedroom which enjoys the same benefits as those of the living room. Back into the hallway, and next left will take you into a dining room, or bedroom if preferred. From the hallway the next room on the left will be the bathroom and then the separate toilet. At the end of the hallway is the kitchen, which has a door at the rear, opening into the back garden...that completes the ground floor.
From the entrance hall, a staircase will whisk you up to the first-floor landing...What a pleasant surprise...t good sized dormer bedrooms which both have the views over the allotments and field beyond.There is also a nursery/dressing room and a shower room...who would have thought that all of this space would be upstairs? Only by seeing the size of the dormer from the back, would you be able to guess.
So...now for the outside...There are twin lawns at the front with a central pathway leading up to the front door. To the right-hand side is a generously sized driveway which, in turn, leads to an attached garage.
The back garden is triangular in shape and is not directly overlooked by houses opposite. Although very rarely carried out, we understand that the adjoining neighbour has a right of way/access down the right-hand side of this property, in order to gain access to their own back garden if required. By negotiation, it may be possible to come to an alternative arrangement.
Some TLC is required, but overall this property provides great potential and should prove to be a gem of a property that will prove to be of interest to a range of prospective purchasers. So there you have it...one of Horsforth's best-kept secrets...the times I have driven past this property and not even seen it, is testimony to this, perhaps?
Aahhh, but what about the amenities, I hear you ask?? Well, these will not disappoint either. Horsforth continues to be popular and a sought-after location, due to an abundance of these, which are improving and growing month by month, year upon year. There is a great selection of restaurants, pubs, wine bars, coffee bars and cafes. If you wish to walk off those over-indulgencies, then look no further than Horsforth Hall Park and the Leeds/Liverpool canal, both of which are close by. Further afield is Golden Acre Park and the famous Roundhay Park with its twin lakes. There are numerous golf courses too. There is a good selection of schools for children of most ages and for the commuter, the arterial roads give access to other areas and Leeds city centre. There are regular cross-town public transport facilities and 2 train stations in proximity. Leeds and Bradford's International Airport is only a few miles away too.
