5 bed detached house for sale

Woodland Road, Wakefield WF2

A hidden haven with space to spare! Tucked away down a lane and occupying an extensive plot in Wakefield, this beautifully presented five-bedroom detached family home offers an exceptional amount of space both inside and out. Approached via a sweeping driveway providing ample off-street parking, the property enjoys an impressive sense of arrival, surrounded by established gardens and mature greenery. Generous proportions, multiple reception rooms and flexible accommodation make this a superb home for a growing family, while its established surroundings give the property a wonderfully tucked-away feel despite being within easy reach of Wakefield’s many amenities. The substantial gardens are a particularly impressive feature, wrapping around the home with mature trees, expansive lawns and plenty of space for relaxing, entertaining and family life.

Step inside and the scale of the accommodation quickly becomes apparent. A welcoming central hallway leads to an impressive 21'6" sitting room with feature fireplace and large picture window, while a separate, equally impressive, dining room also featuring a fireplace and seating area, provides plenty of room for family meals and entertaining, To the rear is a generous kitchen with an excellent range of cabinetry and workspace, opening through to a superb living room with double doors opening onto the garden, creating a lovely connection between the house and its outdoor surroundings. A ground-floor WC and useful storage cupboard complete the main accommodation, while the integral garage incorporates a practical utility area and further storage. Upstairs, the spacious landing connects five bedrooms, including an bedroom with its own en-suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms that are particularly generous doubles, one with built-in wardrobes and these are complemented by two versatile additional bedrooms that would work equally well for children, guests or home working. A beautifully presented and substantial family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms and includes both bath and separate shower and benefits from a storage cupboard. Outside, the property really comes into its own, with the sweeping driveway offering generous off-street parking and leading to the integral garage, complemented by extensive mature gardens, broad lawned areas, established trees and planting, and paved spaces ideal for outdoor seating and entertaining.

The property combines its tucked-away setting with excellent access to everything Wakefield has to offer and a short 15 minutes commute to Leeds . The city provides a broad choice of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, leisure facilities and everyday services, together with schools and recreational amenities throughout the surrounding area. For commuters, Wakefield is particularly well connected by road, with convenient access to the M1 and M62 motorway networks, opening up travel towards Leeds and the wider Yorkshire region. Wakefield Westgate also provides excellent rail connections, including services to Leeds and long-distance routes to destinations including London King’s Cross, Newcastle and Edinburgh. This is a home that delivers that increasingly hard-to-find combination of substantial family accommodation, an extensive plot and a tucked-away position, all while keeping the city and its transport links within easy reach.
