Now we all love having a nosey around houses for sale in Leeds- but this one could have us scrolling for hours.
Located in Scarcroft on Thorner Lane, this eight bedroom, six bathroom freehold mansion is officially the most expensive properties on the market right now, according to Rightmove.
A fine Georgian manor house with gorgeous rural views, this is as good as it gets when it comes to country homes- and with 60 acres attached to the property, it’s the ideal investment for a long-term buyer.
The home itself is set across 15,000 square feet with a host of formal and informal reception rooms, two wine cellars, a basement entertainment space with modern bar, cinema, music room and billiards room, six sizeable bedrooms and a further two located in the guest wing. There’s also a stunning leisure wing with jacuzzi, gym and indoor swimming pool, as well as an outdoor tennis court.
But don't just take our word for it, here's an idea of what you'd be getting for six and a half million quid.
The exterior of the property is true to the Georgian style, and spanning across 15,000 square feet.
The indoor swimming pool has a glass ceiling view that floods the space with natural light.
The wine cellars are particularly impressive, with the estate agents pointing out that this has been undoubtably commissioned by the original owner, who is a 'renowned Wine and Spirits Merchant'.
The dedicated cinema space is just one of the relaxing areas of the property, there is also a dedicated music room, amongst other living spaces.
The rooms of the house are neutrally coloured with fine furnishings and finishes that beautifully match the traditional style with modern conveniences.
The garden space is adorned with green details, water features and hidden walks.
The property comes with a whopping 60 acres of land.
Listed with Savills Estate Agents, this property comes with a guide price of £6,500,000 and those interested should contact the registered agent for more information about the sale of the property.
More details about the property can also be found on the original Rightmove listing here.

Wakefield set to be the first city outside of London to display the UK AIDS Memorial Quilt
The UK Aids Memorial Quilt is set to go on display across Wakefield this summer.
The quilt - consisting of 42 quilts and 23 individual panels, representing over 384 individuals affected by HIV and AIDS - will go on display at WX Wakefield from Thursday 4 to Sunday 7 June 2026.
All 42 quilts will be on display, with WX working in partnership with the UK AIDS Memorial Quilt Conservation Partnership.
Across the same weekend, selected individual panels will be displayed at different venues across the city including The Hepworth Wakefield, The Art House Wakefield, Theatre Royal Wakefield, Pontefract Castle and the Yorkshire Sculpture Park.
Part of the world’s largest community art project, this is a huge opportunity for the city of Wakefield. The project started in the USA back in 1985 by activist Cleve Jones, commemorating friends, family and loved ones lost to AIDS.
Individual panels were then stitched together to create larger quilts, which were shown outdoors as a form of protest to raise awareness about HIV and AIDS.
Today, the quilt stands as a crucial reminder of those who were lost and of the continuing affect that HIV and AIDS has on the people of today.
At WX Wakefield, viewing the quilt is completely free and on Friday 5 June there will be a special late night opening up until 10:30pm to view the exhibition.
And on Saturday 6 June at 2:30pm, there will be a very special and poignant reading of the names of those commemorated on the quilt.

Leeds’ first frozen yoghurt bar is opening in Headingley this weekend
Clementine Hall
The frozen yoghurt craze is on its way to Leeds as Kefiyo is set to open in Headingley in just a few days.
It's a phenomenon that has caught the attention of the TikTok and Instagram girlies as of late, with frozen yoghurt bars popping up in Manchester and going viral online.
The ice cold sweet treat is supposedly 'healthy' and with a slogan of 'eat Clean. feel Light. live Better.' - this new spot in Leeds seems to be going down that route too.
Kefiyo will be opening in the old Sixes site on Ash Road in Headingley, and they've just announced that they'll be soft launching this Sunday 19 April 2026.
The space is already sporting a super cute pastel green and pink exterior, and it's exactly matching the aesthetic that you'd expect with froyo.
Kefiyo will offer a range of frozen yoghurt flavours with a whole bunch of toppings for you to customise to your tastebuds, as well as fresh acai bowls.
Situated slap bang in the centre of Headingley, we've got a feeling it'll be very busy with students on their way to their morning lecture or at night for those looking for a sweet treat that doesn't feel too naughty.
We'll keep you updated on more Kefiyo updates as and when we find out.
But in the meantime, you can keep an eye on their socials here. We'll see you soon for a scoop Leeds.
