Beech House Pages.indd 5 19/12/2016 15:18 We put on a new roof, played around with the layout to make it more conducive to modern family life, had the kitchen completely refitted and we also added doors and windows on the garden side of the house, not only to let in more light, but also to take advantage of the lovely view of the garden.”

“The location proved to be a big draw when we came across this house eleven years ago,” says Adrian. “I’ve always liked Ranmoor because of its proximity to both the city centre and the surrounding countryside, and Ivy Park Road is a lovely, leafy street. We have a fantastic golf course only half a mile away, there are a number of good schools within walking distance and the range of shops and amenities is excellent; it’s an area that ticks a lot of boxes.”

“When we purchased the house it was in need of a good deal of TLC, so over the years we’ve done an awful lot of work to it, probably more than was needed, actually. The house as a whole is now a really comfortable and beautiful looking family home.”

“As well as renovating the house, we’ve also done a lot to enhance the garden and to make it more family friendly,” continues Adrian. “We had the driveway redone, levelled off the lawn – so it’s ideal for a good kick about – and edged it with a lovely dry-stone wall and deep beds of flowers and shrubs. It’s now a very attractive feature of the property and it’s been a great space for the children.”

“My favourite room is probably the main sitting room,” says Adrian. “It’s a lovely big room with a huge stone fireplace and French doors that lead out into the garden; it’s definitely the most impressive room in the house and therefore a lovely space to entertain in.”

“What I’ve enjoyed most about the location is the fact that in one direction you have the hustle and bustle of city life, but in the other you have mile upon mile of the most spectacular open countryside. We really have enjoyed the very best of both worlds.”*

Beech House Pages.indd 9 19/12/2016 15:18 The old Coach House, which many years ago was converted into a garage, had a loft above which we’ve since turned into a really nice games room. It’s a great space which would also make a fantastic office or even an extra guest bedroom.”

Beech House Pages.indd 10 19/12/2016 15:18 This has been a wonderful family home and there’s a lot about it that I’ll miss. It’s spacious, comfortable, the garden is beautiful and the location will be hard to better.”
