St. Martins View, Leeds

DECEPTIVELY SPACIOUS 3-BED SEMI-DETACHED PROPERTY CLOSE TO CENTRAL CHAPEL ALLERTON WITH LARGE, LEAFY BACK GARDEN, AND VAST POTENTIAL FOR THE BUYER WITH A GOOD EYE. THIS IS A MUCH LOVED FAMILY HOME WITH A GREAT VIBE.

Set within walking distance of central Chapel Allerton, with its quirky independent retailers, coffee shops, and well-regarded Primary School (OFSTED rated good, 2024), this 3-bed, semi-detached family home has been much loved, and is a warm, inviting space. Buses run into central Leeds every ten minutes from St Martin’s View, where the house is located, but stand in the large, leafy sun trap of a back garden, with its mature fruit trees and raised veggie beds for your home allotment, and you’ll forget you’re so close to a major city.

The property has a handy porch for muddy boots with original stained glass door, vast open plan kitchen diner for family meals, or catching up with mates, and the freshly decorated lounge - with working wood burner and hand crafted, inset book shelving - is a tranquil nook for adult down time. Upstairs, there are two spacious double bedrooms with original 1930s fireplaces (what a find!), and a single bedroom for the baby, or planned baby of the family! The family bathroom has a spacious shower, roll top bath, and has been designed with an art deco style that compliments the property’s original features. And the downstairs separate WC is a godsend as kids get older and fight for mirror time, or as you’re dashing out to work!

This is not your typical 3-bed semi - it’s a tardis, with a large permanent storage space built onto the side, that connects to a huge brick built garage that’s already connected to power - ideal for conversion to a double home office, gym, summer room, or potting shed. This house will accommodate a couple who work from home and have pets, or a growing family, as there’s also potential to convert the attic space, subject to planning permission.

The garden is private, peaceful, and has not just a lawn area for little ones to run around, and a growing area for keen gardeners, but a spacious seating area, through the French Doors, for chilling round your fire pit. To the front, the driveway can accommodate multiple cars for off road parking. However there is always ample on street parking for visitors, as it’s a quiet area.

The neighbours are wonderful people, and the sense of community on the street is not found in central Chapel A - but you’ll have to come and feel that vibe for yourselves when you book a viewing. This one will not stick around, and the current owners have been happy here for 14 years.
