Step inside
Upon entry into the property, you are greeted by a simply magnificent and generous sized living room having attractive parquet flooring, a superb inglenook central feature fireplace housing a wood burning stove and exposed beams to ceiling. The room benefits from double aspect windows to front and rear elevations and a gallery landing overhead, along with a patio door leading out to the rear garden. There are two useful storage cupboards, a solid wood return staircase leading to the first-floor accommodation and a door giving access to a highly flexible reception room that is currently used as a study/reading room but alternatively could be a family snug, a children’s play area or an occasional bedroom, with window to front elevation, a central feature fireplace with surround, exposed beams to ceiling and modern fitted office furniture.
Progressing further into the property is the dining kitchen which is a wonderful sociable living space and the hub of the house. Extensive, modern shaker-style units are fitted at floor and wall height with granite counter level work surfaces incorporating a ‘range cooker’ style unit and further integrated appliances. In addition, there’s ample space for dining table and chairs, a stunning vaulted ceiling with exposed wooden beams, two skylight windows with two further windows and door to side elevation, access to a utility area/WC, door with ladder access to bedroom two en-suite with large storage space beneath and original tiled flooring.
Leading off from the kitchen is a fabulous sitting room, a perfect space for relaxing in, having double aspect patio doors opening out to a delightful paved patio area and the family garden beyond.
To the first floor, the gallery landing area features exposed wooden beams, a skylight window and provides access to two great sized double bedrooms. The master suite has window to front elevation, attractive fitted wardrobes, vaulted ceiling with beams and access to a contemporary en-suite bathroom comprising a three-piece white suite with a separate shower cubicle and Velux window. Bedroom two is another great sized double having window to front elevation, a further skylight window, exposed wooden beams and is serviced by its own en-suite bathroom featuring a three-piece white suite and a Velux window. Previously this room constituted two bedrooms with family bathroom.
An inner hallway from the kitchen to the sitting room has an additional staircase leading to a third well-proportioned double bedroom being light and airy having window to the rear aspect and access to a modern en-suite shower room comprising a two-piece white suite with a shower cubicle and window to side elevation.
Step outside
Externally the property benefits from a generous block paved driveway providing off street parking for two to three vehicles and a timber shed. An opening leads to the wonderful landscaped rear garden being predominantly laid to lawn, fully enclosed and enjoying a good degree of privacy. To the immediate rear of the property is an extensive wrap-around paved patio accessed via the living room, kitchen and sitting room making this ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, with the additional benefit of up lighting to the stone garden walls. At the bottom of the garden is a further paved patio area and a stone-built outhouse providing useful storage space for garden tools and furniture.
Location
This sensational property is situated in the heart of the popular village of Thorner and is ideally located for those wanting a countryside location which is still within close proximity of a wide range of amenities. The vibrant centre of Leeds is a short drive away and the popular towns of Wetherby and Harrogate are also within easy reach. There are good local schools for all ages with the Grammar School at Leeds situated at the nearby Alwoodley Gates. This home represents a true one-off and we would encourage any interested parties to view at their earliest convenience.
