Summary - WHITE LEA FARM BARN, HUDDERSFIELD, MARSDEN HD7 6NJ
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious rural home with almost two acres and extensive outbuildings.
Three-bedroom detached barn conversion with exposed beams and character features
A characterful three-bedroom detached barn conversion sitting on almost two acres of gardens and paddock on the edge of Marsden. The house retains exposed beams, vaulted ceilings and two log-burning stoves, while double glazing and gas central heating provide everyday comfort. Substantial outbuildings include a 30ft barn, a bespoke garage with stove and a large driveway offering generous off-street parking.
The property offers practical extras for rural living: bore-hole spring water, a bio-tec septic tank and useful items included in the sale such as a ride-on mower, digger, sauna and gym equipment. A versatile lower-level room currently used as a gym with garden access could be a hobby room, office or extra living space. Local facilities include a nearby train station with links to Huddersfield, Manchester and Leeds, plus well-regarded local schools.
Important considerations: the site is in a high flood-risk area and the stone walls are assumed uninsulated, which affects long-term running costs and any retrofit planning. EPC rating D and some parts may benefit from modernisation or insulation upgrades. The area records above-average crime and the wider neighbourhood shows pockets of deprivation; buyers should factor these into their decision.
This is a property for buyers seeking rural scope and character — a family or smallholding purchaser wanting land, hobby/outbuilding potential and countryside views, who is willing to manage flood risk mitigation and invest in energy improvements.
