OPEN DAY VIEWING ON SUNDAY THE 18th OF JAN, FROM 10:30 am. PLEASE BOOK ONLINE/CALL24/7 TO RESERVE YOUR APPOINTMENT. Over the years, I have been so lucky to have seen so many beautiful apartments all over Leeds. Seeing this one for the first time, it quickly became obvious to me that this particular apartment rates amongst some of the nicest for a number of reasons. Firstly...here is a little history about why it sets itself apart from others... Dene House Court was originally part of a factory owned by inventor and Industrialist, George Bray, who made his name as the inventor of a new type of ceramic gas burner which produced a much stronger and steadier light and lasted for much longer than earlier models. He developed techniques for mass-producing his new gas burners (Economizers) at very low cost, which meant everyone could afford them-just a penny each...his invention revolutionised gas lighting. It manufactured gas lights, heaters and contributed to the war effort during World War Two. Much of the factory was later demolished, but several of the buildings survive to this day as Dene House Ct, which was converted into bespoke apartments in 1997. The building on the corner of Devon Rd & Leicester Rd survives from 1894. It is a lovely, high-specification development, converted into beautiful apartments set within sizeable grounds with allocated secured car parking...all set within a gated community. I was delighted to see that many of the characteristic features have been retained during the conversion. It is fabulous to see how "the new" has been skillfully and sympathetically blended with "the old". The result is a 2nd-floor apartment that will be the envy of many, and will enable you to have a fabulous lifestyle, brought about by high ceilings and large windows, bringing a great feeling of spaciousness and light, engineered wood floorings, bespoke fittings and panoramic views over rooftops and beyond. Another factor that impressed me was how close it is situated for access to the Leeds city centre...5 minutes walk approx to Leeds University, 10, to the Leeds General Infirmary and easy access to many central centres for business, commerce and shopping facilities...great for socialising too. Brilliant to have such a vibe on your "doorstep", day/night.  Also of interest will be the fact that all the residents can have a say as to how their property and grounds are managed, with several residents being directors of the self-appointed management company. This ensures a tight control of the day-to-day management affairs, etc. The icing on the cake though...is that it is CHAIN FREE...so no having to wait for the owner to find somewhere to live. So there you have it...one of the area's little-known secrets...not now that I have told you all about it. Don't take my word for it, though...get yourself booked into the OPEN DAY by calling us 24/7 or by jumping onto the website, and I look forward to showing you around.
