Character

Higher-spec second-year houses, cafés, Otley Road bars

Headingley sits north of Hyde Park along the LS6 / LS16 border. It's a genuine neighbourhood — Waitrose, Sainsbury's, the Arndale Centre, Cottage Road Cinema and the run of independents on North Lane — rather than a purely student zone. That's the appeal: a slightly quieter, higher-spec set of houses without losing walking distance to Hyde Park's pubs.

Our Headingley student houses cluster on Bennett Road, St Anne's Road, St Anne's Lane, St Michael's Lane, Chapel Lane, Winston Gardens, Grosvenor Road and the streets running off Otley Road. Expect refurbished kitchens, two bathrooms as standard on any 4+ bed, and gardens or yards.

You're a 20-minute walk or an 8-minute bus ride (1, 6, 27, 28) from the University of Leeds. Leeds Beckett's Headingley campus is right on your doorstep — under 10 minutes on foot from most of our houses.

The Otley Road strip covers your nights out — Original Oak, Skyrack, Arc, Lounge, Box, Elephant, Cafe 164 — and the walk home stays lit and busy until late. For quieter days, North Lane and Chapel Lane give you a proper high-street feel that Hyde Park lacks.

Rents in Headingley typically run £130 to £160 pppw for a well-finished 3 to 5 bed house, with the small number of 2-bed conversions on North Lane and Chapel Lane at the top of that range. That puts Headingley just below Hyde Park and level with Woodhouse.
