Description

Step through the front garden gate and into a home that immediately sets the tone with its bright entrance hallway and gorgeous patterned tiles. To the left, a beautifully proportioned living and dining room offers an inviting blend of period charm and everyday comfort, enhanced by original stripped wood floorboards. The wood-burning fire creates the perfect cosy focal point for winter mornings, while the large sash bay window draws your eye straight out to the garden and greenery beyond, offering an almost countryside feel, while still moments from Chapel Allerton's buzz. The space then flows effortlessly into the dining area, framed by multiple windows that keep it light, airy, and ideal for relaxed entertaining.

To the rear of the cottage is a functional and well-equipped kitchen, featuring a four-ring hob, oven and fridge, complemented by plenty of fitted cabinetry for storage and prep essentials. A separate utility room provides excellent practicality, with access through to the dining room, creating an easy circular flow across the ground floor. There's also the added bonus of a cellar, perfect for extra storage, along with a boarded loft offering excellent additional storage.

Upstairs, the master bedroom sits to the left. A generous retreat with another beautiful sash window overlooking the south-facing garden, where summer light pours in. Also on this level is a second double bedroom, currently used as a home office, with a lovely outlook over the leafy front garden and plenty of space for a full bedroom setup. A further double bedroom to the rear completes the second level, ideal as a guest room, nursery or dressing room depending on your needs.

The bathroom, beautifully refurbished in 2022, is finished with a stylish bath and overhead shower, complemented by frosted glazing for privacy. A separate WC is a welcome addition, particularly when guests come to stay.

Steeped in history and believed to have once been two separate cottages, the home wears its story beautifully, most notably in the subtle step upstairs that hints at its original footprint. For those seeking character, privacy and a sense of retreat, without compromising on convenience, this is a truly special find.

Set just a six-minute walk from the centre of Chapel Allerton, famed for its independent bars, greengrocers, community feel and excellent bus links into Leeds and Harrogate, this is a home that offers the best of both the rear of the cottage is a functional and well-equipped kitchen, featuring a four-ring hob, oven and fridge, complemented by plenty of fitted cabinetry for storage and prep essentials.
