A rare 17th‑century detached stone cottage set in extensive, well‑maintained grounds with elevated decked seating and scenic countryside views. Period features such as exposed beams, mullioned windows, stone fireplaces and a low‑ceilinged rustic living room give the house strong character and a cosy atmosphere for family life.
The ground floor flows from a fitted kitchen into a garden room with underfloor heating, ideal for year‑round use, plus two reception rooms with working fireplaces. Upstairs offers two double bedrooms, an open landing/study area and a modern four‑piece bathroom with underfloor heating — practical for everyday family routines.
Externally there is a detached garage, outbuilding/laundry room, spring‑fed ponds, small woodland and parking for multiple vehicles — plenty of space for hobbies, storage or a home business. The setting is semi‑rural yet within reach of Sowerby Bridge rail links and the M62 for commuting.
Straightforward drawbacks: the house uses oil central heating, broadband speeds are slow, and council tax is above average. The property’s age and character mean there may be maintenance and servicing needs typical of a 17th‑century home; buyers should factor in ongoing upkeep and any desired modernisation.
