Description

This semi-detached residence in Cookridge presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest or renovate. Set on a generous corner plot with a tranquil woodland backdrop, the property offers significant potential for cosmetic updates and personal touches. Furthermore, planning permission has been granted to construct two one-bedroom apartments where the detached garage currently stands, adding an exciting investment angle to this home. Inside, the property features three well-sized bedrooms and ample living space. The entrance provides access to a dual-aspect lounge measuring 19 feet, complete with a Living Flame gas fire and sliding patio doors that lead into a garden room—an ideal spot for relaxing or entertaining. The dining kitchen is functional with various base and wall storage units, ceramic tiling, and plumbing for a washing machine; it also opens onto the rear garden via patio doors. On the first floor, you'll find three generous bedrooms alongside a shower room equipped with a two-piece suite and separate shower cubicle. An added benefit is the spacious loft room on the second floor, which provides versatile accommodation options and includes built-in storage as well as two Velux windows. The exterior of the property features wraparound gardens that enhance its appeal, including a gated paved area at the rear, gravelled side garden space, and parking accommodations for up to five vehicles via a gated driveway. Conveniently located within walking distance of Horsforth train station and close to local shopping facilities and schools, this property not only offers immediate comfort but also presents an array of possibilities for future enhancement or development. A viewing is recommended to fully appreciate its potential.
