8 Crag Hill View, Leeds

It is often said that there are 3 things that you should look for when you buy a house...Location, location, location...and this has all 3 in abundance...Situated in what is considered to be one of the very best and most desirable streets in Cookridge. This is a home that combines a sizeable private back garden with modern, open-plan living, communicating effortlessly with calming outside spaces for relaxation and ease of entertaining. So if it is a fab lifestyle that you are after, this could well be the property for you!  

This is a classic 1920s, bay-windowed semi-detached house that has been extended on the ground floor and into the loft, to provide excellent family accommodation, ideal for those who need space inside or out and love to entertain. Set in sizeable gardens, which are great for those who love the outdoor life, playing space for children, gardening and BBQs. Being at the head of an open cul-de-sac, I have often seen children playing safely without any "through-traffic " worries. There is parking for several cars a detached garage and a summer house too.

Having parked on the driveway, your guided tour will start by entering a good-sized, bright and airy entrance hall. First on the left, will take you into an elegant living room with splendid features such as the leaded and stained glass bay window, the fireplace, and ceiling mouldings. By proceeding to the end of the hallway, you will enter the heart of this home, where you will find the semi-open plan sitting room, dining room, and kitchen. With these rooms having been extended and having great views over the back garden, what a great family space this is!  (check out the pics) Back into the hallway, the staircase will whisk you up to the first-floor landing. The master bedroom is located at the front and has superb features similar to those of the living room below. the 3rd bedroom is adjacent to this one, and both enjoy views down the short cul de sac. The good-sized (double) 3rd bedroom is located at the back of the house adjacent to the bathroom. From the landing, there is a central staircase that will take you into what was originally the loft space, which has now been tastefully converted to form a super 4th bedroom, which has its own en-suite bathroom. The views from this bedroom are pretty good, too. And so to the outside...there is a garden to the front, which has a driveway that extends down the side of the house (plenty of car parking) and leads to a detached garage, I love the back garden...good sized, enclosed, and private...excellent sunshine too. Great for entertaining...ohhh...and don't forget about the summer house.

So...there you have it...a wonderful house, in a wonderful location, provided extended family accommodation. Surely one to add to the very top of your house-hunting shopping list.

So what about the amenities, I hear you ask? Cookridge has continued to be popular and a sought-after location due to an abundance of these. Lots of different sizes and shapes of shops of all kinds, ranging from supermarkets in Cookridge, Holt Park, and Horsforth, to the traditional corner shops just about everywhere. Doctors, dentists, and schools for children of all ages are catered for within the immediate vicinity. Being on the edge of the countryside, there is a particularly nice walk over nearby fields to Golden Acre Park. There are numerous recreational facilities in proximity, with Horsforth and Cookridge golf clubs being the closest. For those of you who wish to move at a faster pace of life, gyms and sports clubs too. If you throw into the mix, nice pubs, restaurants, and wine bars, there is more than enough going on to suit most palates. For commuters, there are regular bus services, good road and rail links (Horsforth station), as well as Leeds and Bradford International Airport.
