19 Larchwood, Woodlands Drive, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS19 6JZ

Beyond the stone entrance pillars, through the private approach and into an extraordinary Gothic reception hall, Number 19 immediately establishes itself as a home of remarkable presence.

Framed by soaring stone arches, intricate carved capitals, richly patterned encaustic tiled floors and an elegant staircase illuminated by stained glass, the first impression is one of craftsmanship, scale and architectural distinction.

Occupying a privileged position within the exclusive Larchwood Estate, at the heart of the Cragg Wood Conservation Area, this exceptional Victorian residence dates back to 1859 and beautifully balances its historic character with the versatility required for modern family life.

Every principal room reflects the quality of its era, while the generous proportions provide an effortless sense of space throughout.

The accommodation extends to five generous double bedrooms, four bathrooms and a lower ground floor WC.

To the bastment is a substantial basement games room with space for gym equipment, storage rooms and further WC.

The first floor sitting room could equally serve as a sixth bedroom, home office or guest suite.

The original windows remain, preserving the property's architectural integrity, whilst the extensive roof space offers exciting potential for future conversion, subject to any necessary consents.

Designed with flexibility in mind, the home benefits from two separate entrances, making it ideally suited to modern family living, multi-generational occupation or those seeking dedicated work-from-home space.

Practicality is equally well considered, with parking available immediately outside the main entrance together with two further allocated spaces within the West Car Park.

Surrounded by mature woodland within one of North Leeds' most exclusive private estates, residents enjoy beautifully maintained communal grounds, a private tennis court and an enviable sense of community, all whilst remaining within easy reach of Leeds, Bradford and excellent transport links.

The current owners have enjoyed life here for over twenty-six years, citing the building's rich history, peaceful woodland setting and unique community as reasons they have treasured their time at Larchwood.

Homes of this architectural significance are exceptionally rare.

Number 19 offers not simply a beautiful period residence, but an opportunity to become custodian of one of Cragg Wood's most distinctive homes.
