Shadwell is a small village on the north-east edge of Leeds, with stone cottages along Main Street and large detached homes on the lanes around it.

What are homes like in Shadwell?

At its heart are stone cottages and farmhouses along Main Street, surrounded by substantial detached houses from the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, many on large plots with views across open fields.

What we fit in Shadwell

In north Leeds our most requested jobs are sliding sash and flush casement windows for period homes, slim anthracite aluminium windows and wide bifolds for extensions, and statement composite front doors. Whatever you choose, we build it ourselves and install it with our own team.

Our advice for Shadwell homes

Shadwell sits on the north-east edge of Leeds, close to Roundhay but with a real village feel. Older stone cottages along Main Street and Gateland Lane sit beside large detached homes on generous plots. Cottages suit flush casements with glazing bars in heritage colours; larger houses suit a matching set of windows with a statement composite or aluminium front door, plus wide bifold or sliding doors to the garden.

Practical things we check in Shadwell

The Shadwell Conservation Area covers the historic core, so the front of a cottage needs a sympathetic design. Several large homes here have extensive glazing to the rear, and we specify laminated glass and multi-point locks on every ground-floor opening. Lanes are narrow, so we plan deliveries with you.

Many Shadwell homes overlook open countryside towards Wike and Slaid Hill, and slim aluminium frames make the most of the view without bulky sightlines.

Owners of cottages near the Red Lion often ask about keeping old leaded glass, which we can set into a new sealed unit.
