Characterful 4-bed barn conversion with vaulted living and far-reaching country views.
Grade II listed 17th-century barn conversion with original beams and stonework
The Byre is a beautifully restored Grade II listed 17th-century barn conversion set on the edge of Warley, offering characterful living with modern comforts. A dramatic vaulted kitchen/living/dining space with exposed beams and large bi-fold doors frames expansive Calderdale countryside views, creating a bright, sociable heart to the home. High-quality finishes include a bespoke German kitchen, solid oak joinery and reclaimed timber doors.
Practical day-to-day living is well considered: underfloor heating served by an air source heat pump, remote-controlled Velux windows, hard-wired ethernet and an efficient layout with two reception rooms, three double bedrooms plus a study/occasional fourth bedroom. The principal suite benefits from an en suite with clawfoot bath and valuable eaves storage. Outside, low-maintenance landscaped gardens, two stone patios and driveway parking for three vehicles complete the picture.
There are important practical details to note. The property’s Grade II listed status means any future alterations will be constrained and may require specialist consent. Drainage is via a septic tank shared with a neighbour, and broadband speeds are very slow — a limitation for heavy home working despite excellent mobile signal and hard-wired ethernet. Council tax is above average for the area.
Overall, The Byre will suit buyers seeking a character-filled, low-maintenance countryside home with good commuter links to Leeds and Manchester. It offers an immediate move-in standard while also providing tasteful scope for sympathetic further enhancement, subject to listed-building considerations.
