This lovely, three-bedroomed, semi-detached house has so much to offer - stunning, original, character features, a peaceful cul-de-sac setting close to village amenities including excellent schools and the train station, a private garden and driveway parking, some delightful, countryside views...

An early viewing is recommended to fully appreciate the charm, character and potential of this wonderful property.
A useful porch with terracotta tiled floor opens into a spacious entrance hall through an original, timber door with stunning, stained glass, leaded panel. A lovely lounge with curved, leaded, double-glazed bay window and log burning stove and a most spacious, extended second sitting room/dining room with open fire and French doors onto the garden provide generous living space with a fitted kitchen completing the ground floor accommodation. A wide return staircase with further beautiful, stained glass, leaded window leads up to the first floor where one finds two good-sized, double bedrooms, one with a second lovely, curved bay window and delightful, far reaching countryside views and a single bedroom, all supported by a spacious, traditional style bathroom. This charming property offers a private, rear garden and a low-maintenance garden to the front elevation. A driveway provides parking and leads up to a garage store with workshop area to the rear.
A sought-after community in its own right, Menston has good local amenities including various shops, one of the district's most sought after primary schools, pubs, church, library, a variety of sporting facilities, train station with direct services to Leeds and Bradford and the outstanding St Mary’s Secondary School, not to mention lovely walks in the surrounding countryside.
