Nestled in the popular village of Kippax, on the outskirts of Leeds, this superbly appointed family home offers the perfect blend of countryside tranquillity and urban convenience. Set on an expansive plot of approximately 0.4 acres, this property is a rare find, providing not only generous living space but also extensive gardens and ample parking.
Location: Positioned on the edge of Leeds, this home boasts picturesque countryside views while being within easy reach of local shops, schools, and essential services. The property is ideally situated for commuters, with major road networks including the A1M and M1 just a short drive away, offering quick access to Leeds, York, and beyond.
Exterior: As you approach the property, two sets of wrought iron gates open onto a generously sized block-paved horseshoe driveway, which leads to the main entrance and the two garages. At the centre of the driveway, a well-maintained lawn is surrounded by mature plants and shrubs, providing an inviting first impression.
Ground Floor: Entering through a wooden front door, you're welcomed into an entrance hallway, which opens through double doors into a spacious inner hallway. This area provides access to all ground floor rooms and a staircase leading to the first floor.
The ground floor features a double bedroom with a bay window to the front aspect, complemented by quality fitted wardrobes, drawer units with inbuilt lighting, and an ensuite bathroom. The ensuite is equipped with a WC, hand basin in a vanity unit, and a bath with an overhead shower.
Another generously sized double bedroom is also located at the front of the property, complete with a bay window. A third double bedroom with a window to the side offers versatility, easily adaptable as an additional reception room or home office.
The hallway includes a discreetly situated built-in wardrobe near the entrance to the downstairs shower room, which features a walk-in double shower cubicle, WC, and a circular hand basin in a vanity unit.
Further down the hallway, you'll find the entrance to the kitchen area, which includes a deep storage cupboard and a large utility room. The utility room is well-equipped with a sink unit, wall and base units, work surfaces, and space for a washing machine and other white goods. It also features a gas hob and a side door, perfect for easy outdoor access after gardening or outdoor activities.
The kitchen/diner is a bright, welcoming space, thanks to a double-glazed window to the rear and a roof lantern skylight. It features a range of high-quality wooden wall and base units, work surfaces, and integrated appliances, including two double ovens, grills, a five-ring gas hob, and an extractor fan. There is ample space for a freestanding fridge/freezer and dishwasher.
The dining area flows seamlessly into the family room, the true heart of this home. Flooded with light from large bi-fold doors that open onto the rear garden and another roof lantern skylight, this space is perfect for family gatherings.
Glazed wooden folding doors lead to the lounge area, which boasts a feature multi-fuel burner, ideal for cozy evenings.
First Floor: The first floor landing is bright and airy, with natural light pouring in from two Velux windows. The landing also provides access to fully finished large eaves storage areas.
The main bedroom, located at the rear, features built-in wardrobes, eaves storage, and UPVC French doors with a Juliet balcony overlooking the stunning gardens. A further double bedroom at the front of the house offers countryside views and additional eaves storage.
The upper floor is completed by a well-appointed bathroom, featuring a walk-in double shower cubicle, WC, bath, and hand basin in a vanity unit with storage.
Gardens and Exterior Features: Externally, the property is a gardener's paradise. A decked area with wooden balustrading leads from the family room and overlooks the south-westerly facing gardens. Beneath the decking, there is access to useful storage areas.
The central area of the garden is laid to mature, well-kept lawns, surrounded by mature trees, flower, and shrub borders. At the bottom end of the garden, you’ll find a horticulturist's delight, with numerous fruit and vegetable beds, some of which are enclosed with netting to protect the crops.
