Spacious five-bedroom detached home with river views, large garden and double garage.
Backs onto River Holme with protected woodland and riverside decking
Set on a large plot backing onto the River Holme with protected woodland beyond, this imposing five-bedroom detached house suits families seeking space, privacy and riverside character. The home’s layout centres on family living: a spacious ground-floor lounge and dining room, a breakfast kitchen with utility and cloakroom, plus a first-floor sitting room that opens onto a balcony overlooking the garden and river.
Practical strengths include a very large integral double garage, a wide block-paved driveway for multiple cars, gas central heating and double glazing. Four of the five bedrooms are good doubles and the principal suite benefits from a stylish en-suite; the family bathroom has been modernised with attractive tiling. The large, lawned rear garden with patio and decking provides a pleasant outdoor living space and direct riverside access for wildlife watching.
Notable considerations: the property sits in a known floodplain and has a medium flood risk — the current owner reports no issues, but buyers should obtain flood checks and appropriate insurance. Council Tax sits above average (Band E). The house was built 1996–2002; double glazing install date is unknown and the home is not adapted for disabled living. Overall, this is an impressive, well-proportioned family home in a sought-after village location with good commuter links.
Nearby amenities, good primary and secondary schools (including outstanding-rated options), a local station and scenic walking routes make this practical for families and professionals who need access to Huddersfield, Holmfirth and wider routes.
