Victoria Walk, Horsforth, LS18 4PP

Donnelly & Co are delighted to market this outstanding, four bedroom, two bathroom semi-detached home located on a residential cul-de-sac in prime Horsforth.

Looking at the impressive facade of this four bedroom house, located in a quiet cul-de-sac in Horsforth, one would never guess the delights that lie within. It is awash with design touches, but at street level, the building’s 1930’s authenticity is meticulously well maintained.

Victoria Walk is a charming residential cul-de-sac right in the heart of the town, with a friendly local community known for socialising with each other. It doesn’t take long for dog walkers or children playing outside to get to know one another and feel as though they have always belonged.  As a convivial family home in a covetable area, this home would be  truly hard to beat.

The owners wanted to create  a stylish yet functional home and somewhere to incorporate the practicalities of family life.  This vision has been achieved and is evident in the huge, open-plan, living kitchen downstairs – the beating heart of the house- where each family member can co-exist in the same area, and yet have the freedom to find a space in which to be themselves.  

Bi-folding doors open out to the pleasant, south-facing garden and the stylish exterior seamlessly connects into the social living space within; the huge skylight in this living area allows light to gently wash the room and lift the mood, making it a very pleasant space to relax and unwind. The design intention was to encourage family get-togethers and to entertain friends: this has been a great success.

Imaginative design is cleverly intertwined with original features and modern day living requirements throughout the rest of the house. A complementary mix of the old and the new design features run effortlessly  throughout the remaining ground floor area - there is a stylish cloakroom and a contemporary utility room, not forgetting  a cosy, formal sitting room at the front of the house.  A wide entrance hall welcomes visitors and in addition, the house offers plenty of storage for the detritus of busy, family life while maintaining a visually pleasing aesthetic.  . 

On the first floor there are four bedrooms, which have all undergone a comprehensive refurbishment. The main bedroom possesses grand, vaulted ceilings that provide an elegant, airy atmosphere. The luxurious en-suite shower room has a large window and contemporary fixtures and fittings. Three more impressive bedrooms complete this floor, each with their own unique, fun design. An opulent family bathroom is shared between these bedrooms.

The south-facing garden is an enticing, well designed space in which to while away the hours when the weather is fine. There is a large social space with elegant decking which provides plenty of room for entertaining or for just enjoying a family, summer barbecue.  In addition there is a good sized lawn area for the age group who prefer to play outdoors. Last but not least, there is a secure summer house providing plenty of storage space for garden furniture or the lawn mower.
