Our advice for Adel homes

Adel is quieter and greener than its neighbours, with 1930s detached houses, post-war family homes and larger modern houses on generous plots, plus older stone cottages near the Norman church of St John the Baptist. For the family homes, modern casements in white, grey or woodgrain and a composite front door are our most common job. Stone cottages suit flush casements in cream or a heritage colour.

Practical things we check in Adel

Adel backs onto Golden Acre Park, Adel Woods and the Meanwood Valley, so many gardens are big and leafy. That makes wide sliding or bifold doors a popular upgrade at the back. Shaded homes near the woods can suffer from condensation, which modern units and good ventilation help to reduce.

Homes along the A660 towards Bramhope often benefit from acoustic glass on the road side.

Bungalows and dormer homes off Long Causeway and Holt Lane are often a whole-house job, and we can usually replace every window and both doors in two or three days.
