Summary - 130 Cumberworth Lane, Lower Cumberworth HD8 8PG
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Compact two-bedroom starter in peaceful semi-rural location with low running costs.
Characterful Victorian stone façade and exposed beams
This attractive two-bedroom stone cottage sits in the popular semi-rural village of Lower Cumberworth. The house combines traditional Victorian features — exposed beams, an inglenook with a multi-fuel stove and a red front door — with recent, well-kept finishes including a modern galley kitchen, LVT flooring and an updated bathroom. The footprint is compact and efficiently laid out, making the property straightforward to run and maintain.
Ideal for a first-time buyer or someone looking to downsize, the home is ready to move into with no immediate work required. Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, fast broadband potential and a handy utility cupboard on the landing with plumbing for a washer. The front low‑maintenance courtyard is easy to manage and suits buyers wanting minimal outdoor upkeep.
There are a few material points to note: the house is small (approx 474 sq ft) and has only on-street parking; there is no rear garden. The stone walls are original and assumed to lack insulation, and the energy rating is E, so heating costs may be higher than newer homes. Double glazing is fitted but the installation date is unknown. Buyers should check title and any planning details with their solicitor and consider insulation improvements if desired.
Set in a peaceful village with an excellent primary school, pub and countryside walks, the cottage offers a characterful, low-maintenance base close to local amenities and commuter links. It presents a sensible purchase for a starter home or a lock‑up‑and‑leave downsizer who values character over extensive space.
