Large garden and excellent local schools — ripe for sympathetic refurbishment.
Spacious detached bungalow approx. 1,593 sq ft
Quietly set on Holmfirth Road in New Mill, this large detached bungalow offers flexible family accommodation and a generous rear garden. The property is offered with no onward chain, good off-street parking and scope to create additional spaces — practical for growing households with cars. Local schooling is strong, including Outstanding-rated primary and secondary options nearby.
Internally the layout currently provides three double bedrooms with a convertible attic space giving potential for a fourth bedroom or home office. The house is spacious at approximately 1,593 sq ft across six principal rooms and benefits from double glazing installed since 2002 and gas central heating. With a large plot and attractive stone facade, there is clear scope to reconfigure and add value for buyers willing to renovate.
Important practical points: the property needs renovation and some modernisation throughout, and the original stone walls likely lack cavity insulation. The EPC is a D and the vendor’s description indicates works will be required to bring the home up to contemporary standards. Buyers should budget for refurbishment (cosmetic and possibly thermal upgrades) to maximise comfort and long-term running costs.
For families seeking space, garden and access to good schools, this bungalow provides a versatile canvas in a very affluent, low-crime neighbourhood with excellent mobile and broadband connectivity. No flood risk and freehold tenure add to its appeal for buyers wanting a long-term family home with redevelopment potential.
