Summary - 165, LONGLEY, HUDDERSFIELD HD5 8LB
3 bed 1 bath Cottage
Three bedrooms, garage and garden—period charm with scope for updating.
Grade II listed cottage with strong period character
This double‑fronted Grade II listed stone cottage combines clear period character with practical family space. Beamed ceilings, mullioned windows and two reception rooms give immediate charm, while the attached garage, driveway and southerly garden add everyday convenience. The property is served by a gas boiler and benefits from partial sealed‑unit double glazing.
The cottage offers three bedrooms across two floors with a generously proportioned living room and separate dining room. The kitchen and bathroom are functional but dated, presenting straightforward scope for sympathetic updating to improve comfort and value. Total internal area is large for a cottage of this type, but the plot is modest in size.
Important considerations: the building is Grade II listed, so any alterations will need listed‑building consent and could restrict modernisation. There is a single bathroom plus separate WC which may be limiting for larger households. The local area records higher crime and significant deprivation indicators, which buyers should weigh against the property’s character and location close to Longley Hall, local shops and Huddersfield town centre.
Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, off‑road parking and an attached garage with mains heating/lighting. For buyers seeking a period home with scope to refresh rather than a turnkey modern house, this cottage offers authentic character and sensible potential, provided you are comfortable working within listed‑building constraints and the local area context.
