Our advice for Alwoodley homes

Alwoodley has some of the largest homes in Leeds, many of them rebuilt or extended with open-plan kitchens and wide glazed rear walls. Slim aluminium windows in anthracite or black, multi-panel bifolds and large sliding doors suit these houses. On older detached homes along King Lane and Harrogate Road, a matching set of casements and a statement composite door finishes the house.

Practical things we check in Alwoodley

Security matters on high-value homes, so we specify laminated glass, multi-point locks and secure hinges on every ground-floor opening and fit around existing alarm sensors. Long drives and gated entrances make access straightforward. Homes near Harrogate Road and the ring road may want acoustic glass at the front.

Many homes near Alwoodley's golf courses and Eccup Reservoir look out over open land, so slim frames that maximise the view are a common request.

On the 1930s and post-war houses around Sandmoor and the Avenues, owners often switch from white to anthracite grey on the front and add a matching composite door.
