Summary - 29 HAYS LANE HALIFAX HX2 8UL
2 bed 1 bath Cottage
Semi-rural two-bedroom retreat with modern fixtures and off-street parking.
Recently restored period cottage with exposed beams and oak flooring
Tucked away in a semi-rural backwater of Mixenden, this recently restored two-bedroom stone cottage blends period character with contemporary fixtures. Exposed beams, oak flooring and a feature stove sit alongside a modern dining kitchen and a recently refitted four-piece bathroom, creating a comfortable, move-in-ready home for couples or first-time buyers.
The property benefits from off-street parking, low‑maintenance flagged gardens front and rear, and a useful cellar for storage and housing the central heating boiler. The seller describes far-reaching countryside views from the cottage and some rooms do enjoy open outlooks over fields; street-level images also show a traditional stone terrace frontage so any panoramic sightlines should be confirmed at viewing.
Practical points to note: the cottage occupies a modest plot and the internal footprint is typical of older terraces, so external amenity and room sizes are limited. The building is traditional sandstone/limestone construction and insulation in the walls is assumed to be absent, which may mean further thermal improvement work is desirable. Double glazing is present but installation date is unknown.
Location strengths include fast broadband and good mobile signal, nearby primary and secondary schools (including a high-ranking grammar), and convenient local amenities and transport links. Conversely, the wider area records high crime and significant deprivation levels; buyers should consider local social factors when assessing suitability and resale prospects.
