Set in the heart of Holmfirth, Back Cottage is a compact two-bedroom stone property blending period character with updated fittings. Its central location and compact layout make it particularly suited to holiday-let use or a lock-up-and-leave second home.
The accommodation includes two double bedrooms (one with en-suite), a sitting room with exposed beams and Juliet balcony, and a loft room with skylights. The kitchen is modern and practical; gas central heating and double glazing are installed. The property is offered with no upper vendor chain and a long 998-year lease.
Notable considerations are the EPC rating of E and a lack of private parking or garden, as the cottage sits above commercial offices. The loft room has been fitted without building-regulation approval, and the stone walls are assumed uninsulated—both factors to consider for energy efficiency and future works.
For investors or buyers seeking a low-maintenance base in a lively town, this cottage offers immediate rental potential and easy access to Holmfirth’s shops, cafes and countryside. Buyers wanting more space, private outdoor space or a higher EPC should factor in potential upgrades.
