Summary - The Yews, Lidgett Lane, Tankersley S75 3BF
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious Victorian home on a huge private plot with woodland and garage/stables.
Five double bedrooms and five reception rooms across three storeys plus cellar
An impressive detached Victorian home dating from 1866, set within huge private grounds and mature woodland. The property offers five bedrooms, five reception rooms and versatile outbuildings (detached garage/stables) that could suit parking, storage or conversion subject to planning consent. The large garden, orangery and high ceilings deliver strong period character and excellent family living space.
This is a property for buyers seeking space, character and potential rather than a turnkey low-maintenance home. The house has many original features — ornate coving, sash windows and fireplaces — but also evidences older solid stone walls with assumed no insulation and an EPC rating of D. Some upgrading (insulation, services, cosmetic work) may be required to improve energy efficiency and running costs.
Practical points to note: the plot and woodland could offer future development potential only with the correct permissions. There is a cellar and multi-storey layout, plus a recently created second-floor suite; parking is extensive via a block-paved driveway and detached garage/stable block. Council tax is described as expensive and the local crime level is reported high, which may concern some buyers.
Overall, this is a rare, characterful family home offering individuality, significant indoor and outdoor space and scope to add value for a buyer prepared to invest in modernization and to explore permitted development or planning options.
