AREA
The Headingley Hill Conservation area is a much sought after north Leeds suburb located less than 2 miles from Leeds train station. The immediate area is characterised by a wealth of predominantly stone built or stone-faced villas, semis and detached properties incorporating stone boundary walls and outbuildings. For many years, this historic area has attracted families, particularly academics, wishing to enjoy the tranquillity of living in an area full of architectural detail yet still within close proximity to the city and Universities. The property is attached to Hilton Court, a grand Grade II listed villa at the junction of North Hill Road and Headingley Lane. This part of the wider Headingley & Hyde Park areas is very leafy, with lots of mature trees and well-tended private gardens rich in birds and wildlife. The area has several ginnels from a by-gone era providing pedestrian short cuts from place to place; particularly useful for accessing the open spaces of Woodhouse Ridge and the Meanwood Valley Trail. There is a diverse range of independent shops, cafes and restaurants at Hyde Park Corner. The Universities, Business School and Leeds General Infirmary are also close-by.
