Summary - 19 Woodhouse Lane HD6 3TH
5 bed 5 bath Detached
Grand Victorian house with pool, huge plot and consented redevelopment potential.
Five double bedrooms each with en‑suite bathroom
An imposing Victorian residence set within about 1.34 acres, this restored stone house combines grand period detail with substantial leisure facilities. The main house offers five large double bedrooms each with an en‑suite, seven principal reception rooms, a south‑west orangery and numerous ancillary rooms arranged over lower ground, ground and upper floors. A private leisure wing includes a 40ft pool with jacuzzi, gym, steam room and relaxation space. The house has been sympathetically renovated and retains ornate plasterwork, stained glass and high ceilings.
The grounds are a major asset: mature, landscaped gardens, a cobbled driveway behind electric gates and a tree‑lined courtyard that gives seclusion and southerly views across neighbouring fields. An integral double garage and internal access to utility, workshop and cinema spaces add practical convenience for large‑house living. Good transport links are close by, with quick access to the M62 and Brighouse station.
For developers or investors this property carries clear potential. Previously granted planning permission covers conversion of the house and pool to nine apartments, and separate consent exists for two detached homes within the grounds (see planning refs 16/00778/RES and 19/00937/FUL). These permissions, alongside the large plot and substantial built form, make the site suitable for a residential redevelopment or an income-producing scheme, subject to checks and statutory consents.
Important drawbacks are stated plainly: the EPC rating is E and the property sits in Council Tax band H (high running costs). The stone walls are historic and assumed to lack modern insulation, which may require investment to improve energy performance. Prospective purchasers should commission full surveys and confirm services, drainage and the detailed scope of existing planning permissions before committing.
