Grosvenor Mount, Headingley, Leeds LS6


Description
This impressive Victorian, Grade II listed, stone built, four double bedroom home is located in the sought after Headingley Hill and Woodhouse Conservation area. Built circa 1850, the property has been lovingly preserved and restored by the current owner over the last 35 years. It is brimming with original period features including a tiled floor in the hallway, shutters to the downstairs windows, ornate ceiling coving, fireplaces, picture and dado rails, sash windows, deep skirting, Lincrusta wallpaper and door furniture. These combined with sympathetic improvements have created a beautiful, characterful home.

The accommodation arranged over four floors in brief comprises: A welcoming and light filled entrance hallway with original encaustic tiled floor, original furniture to the front door, large antique mirror and Lincrusta wallpaper below the dado rail. A polished dark wood banister curves up through the house. The goddesses Flora and Pomona are embossed upon the door to the sitting room illustrating the floral motifs which continue throughout the house. The sitting room is bathed in sunshine through the large bay, sash windows which provide stunning views of the garden. An onyx fireplace has pride of place. To the rear is the dining room with feature marble fireplace and a well-proportioned dining kitchen and utility porch.

The first floor landing is lit by windows from above. There are generous double bedrooms to both the front and rear. The front bedroom has a fireplace and gorgeous views over the garden. There is also a smaller double bedroom with door to the main bedroom which could be used as a dressing room. The stunning house bathroom features a four piece suite with freestanding, claw foot roll top bath in the centre.

On the second floor is a wide landing that could be used as a study and provides access to a further large double bedroom and a shower room with vanity unit and w.c. There is also access to ample under eaves storage. The basement level has the original sink, fire place and stone flagged flooring, offering fantastic potential for further conversion (subject to necessary permissions).

Outside the idyllic South facing front garden laid out in lawns, rockeries and flower beds is well stocked for year round interest. A stone paved patio is ideal for relaxing with a cup of tea (or glass of wine) and enjoying the sunshine. To the rear there is a useful stone outbuilding and a paved courtyard providing off street parking for 2 cars, accessed by a private roadway.

This is the partner house to the one recently featured on the bbc's "A House Through Time". Rarely available, it is an opportunity for the discerning professional or family buyer to acquire a unique, historic, period home.
