Summary - DOGBOTTOM LEE MILL ROAD HEBDEN BRIDGE HX7 7AB
7 bed 5 bath Detached
Versatile multi-building home with hot tub and parking for eight.
Private woodland plot with very large grounds and river-side setting
Set in its own private glade yet only a ten-minute walk from Hebden Bridge, Dogbottom is an expansive, characterful detached home offering exceptional flexibility. The main stone house combines exposed beams, stone hearths and handcrafted finishes with treetop views, while a contemporary architect-designed extension provides a self-contained wing with sauna, kitchenette and balcony. Two further outbuildings — The Cave and The Cabin — broaden options for guests or income generation.
The plot is very large and extensively landscaped with multiple decking terraces, a 2m wood-clad hot tub, outdoor shower, pond and wildlife-friendly allotment areas. Parking for up to eight cars is a practical rarity here. The property has mains gas central heating with additional underfloor heating in places, double glazing, and a borehole alongside the mains water supply; sewerage is to a septic tank.
Notable practical points: broadband speeds are slow for the area, cavity walls appear to have no insulation (assumed), and council tax is above average. Flood risk is assessed as medium; there are no known recent flood events but proximity to river requires consideration. The build dates (c.1930–49) and mixed construction (stone main house, concrete block extension) mean ongoing maintenance and potential modernisation should be expected.
Dogbottom will suit buyers seeking a rural, creative lifestyle: large families, multi-generational households, or those wanting a boutique retreat or holiday-let business. Its privacy, flexible accommodation and exceptional grounds are strong selling points, balanced by the need to assess utility, insulation and connectivity improvements prior to committing.
