This Grade II listed stone cottage is a compact, well-presented home that keeps much of its original character. Internally the property is immaculate with exposed stonework, mullion windows, timber floors and working fireplaces, arranged over three flexible levels — a farmhouse-style dining kitchen on the ground floor, a bright first-floor lounge and two bedrooms on the top floor. A low-maintenance enclosed rear garden provides private outdoor space backing onto natural woodland.
The house is small (approximately 493 sq ft) and will suit buyers seeking a characterful starter home or a buy-to-let with immediate curb appeal. It is chain-free and freehold, with modern gas central heating and double glazing (install date unknown). Broadband speeds are reported fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting remote working and streaming.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status. Grade II listing preserves important features but can complicate or restrict alterations, insulation improvements and some repairs — factor potential costs and consent requirements into any renovation plans. The sandstone walls are assumed to have no added insulation, so upgrades may be limited or need specialist advice. The layout is compact with one bathroom plus a separate WC and overall floorplate is modest.
Location-wise the cottage sits in an established residential area with good local schools and regular bus services; local amenities are within reach in Linthwaite and Huddersfield. For purchasers wanting a well-maintained period home with character and a private garden, this presents a rare chain-free opportunity; for those needing larger rooms, extensive modernisation or unrestricted structural work, the listing status and small footprint are important considerations.
