Description

This well-proportioned five bedroom detached property features generous living accommodation, a lawned garden to the rear and ample off street parking to the front.

Placed in a cul-de-sac in the popular Clifton Moor area of the city, the property has easy access to the outer ring road and good links with the city centre. Clifton Moor shopping park is also just a short distance away.

The internal accommodation is entered through a small hallway which leads straight into a generous lounge with a bay window. The ground floor continues with a fitted dining kitchen which has a range of wall and base units, a built-in double oven, five burner gas hob, fridge, freezer and a dishwasher. There is also a set of French doors leading to the rear garden. There is a useful utility room and a separate W.C accessed just off the kitchen and the downstairs is completed with a double bedroom, which has many potential uses and could be an extra reception room. To the first floor is a main bedroom with a large amount of built-in storage and a three piece en-suite shower room. There are three further good size bedrooms and a three piece family bathroom. The house also has the advantages of mainly wooden double glazing and gas central heating.

Outside the property is the lawned rear garden with a paved area, and off street parking is at the front.

The property is connected to a mains electricity supply, with mains water and sewerage supplied by Yorkshire water. The broadband types available in the area are standard, superfast and ultrafast. Mobile availability at the property is covered by all four major suppliers. Please either check the Ofcom website or contact the office for specific details and suppliers available, for both broadband and mobile.
