Arbourthorne House is a handsome Edwardian detached residence which has been in the same ownership for almost 30 years and is now looking for a new family to enjoy its distinctive benefits. A wealth of original features have been carefully preserved by the vendors throughout the property. Viewing is essential to appreciate this splendid home with five bedrooms, three reception rooms and a spacious entrance hall and staircase.
This handsome detached family home presents grandly proportioned rooms with a wealth of characterful features. The property is approached via a private driveway that provides ample off street parking space as well as leading up to a detached double garage with automated door. The formal entrance leads to the south side of the house with an original Edwardian oak door leading into a grand panelled reception hall and galleried landing. The main living room has a window overlooking the south facing gardens as well as an additional bay window to the side. To the rear there is a separate living room currently used as a study in addition to a formal dining room that has a large square bay overlooking the gardens. Off to the side of the dining room is a conservatory that takes full advantage of the excellent privacy afforded by this lovely garden plot. The large kitchen is situated to the rear of the house alongside a utility room and guest w.c. To the first floor the principal bedroom makes the most of the views over the gardens as well as having an en suite bathroom/w.c. There are a further four double bedrooms on this floor all served by the family bathroom as well as a separate shower room. A staircase leads to two converted attic rooms currently used for storage but previously well used as play rooms and teenage hangout. One attic room has an adjacent toilet and wash basin. The other has access to an external balcony overlooking the side garden.
The property stands on a sizeable plot that extends to 0.59 acres and enjoys an excellent degree of privacy. The beautifully tended gardens are thoughtfully stocked and principally lie to the south side of the house where there is a large level lawn surrounded by extensively planted beds and borders with a lovely mature tree backdrop.
The property is situated at the head of a cul-de-sac in this highly sought after area of Sandal within easy reach of a good range of local shops, schools and recreational facilities. A broader range of amenities are available in the nearby city centre of Wakefield and the national motorway network is readily accessible.
