Property Description

Rarely available and offered to the market with no forward chain and vacant possession, this distinguished semi-detached residence enjoys an enviable City Centre setting with views towards the Cathedral and mature woodland.

Constructed by the current owner’s family, the property combines generous proportions, timeless character, and beautifully maintained gardens, all within a short walk of the City Centre.

Approached via a gated block-paved driveway and framed by an established front garden, the home opens into an impressive and welcoming entrance hallway. The elegant bay-fronted lounge features a striking fireplace and an abundance of natural light, while the separate dining room offers a charming open fire and a glazed door leading into a delightful sunroom overlooking the rear garden — an ideal space for both entertaining and relaxation.

The fitted kitchen is complemented by a separate utility area, ground floor WC, and internal access to the garage, providing practicality alongside the home’s character and charm.

To the first floor, a beautiful stained-glass window floods the landing with natural light. There are two generously proportioned double bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes, together with a spacious third bedroom and an updated shower room.

Externally, the property enjoys beautifully landscaped gardens to both the front and rear, featuring mature planting, shrubs, and established trees that create a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity. The multi-tiered rear garden includes a summer house and an additional garden area leased from the Dean and Chapter, further enhancing the outdoor space and the exceptional setting.

To the front, the gated driveway provides ample parking for multiple vehicles and leads to a single garage with an electric up-and-over door.

Quarryheads Lane is one of the City’s most prestigious and well-established residential addresses, ideally positioned just moments from the vibrant City Centre and its excellent range of shopping, dining, leisure, and cultural amenities. The property is also conveniently located for nearby University and College buildings, while the A167 is only minutes away, offering excellent transport links both north and south.
