This two-bedroom stone cottage in Scapegoat Hill blends traditional character with practical living space, set in a desirable village with good commuter links to Huddersfield, Manchester and Leeds. The ground floor offers a cosy lounge with exposed beams and a wood-burning stove, flowing into an open-plan kitchen/dining area with French doors that open directly to an enclosed garden — ideal for everyday family life and entertaining.
Upstairs are two well-proportioned bedrooms and a modern family bathroom. The house is an average-sized home (approximately 785 sq ft) on a large plot, offering scope to personalise and extend subject to consents. The property benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing (installation date unknown) and an EPC rating of C.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the property is freehold, council tax band C, with low local crime and no flooding risk. There are several well-regarded primary and secondary schools nearby, and local amenities include pubs, shops, playgrounds and sports facilities. Note that the walls have only partial insulation (assumed) and some energy-efficiency improvements could be worthwhile to reduce running costs and increase comfort.
Overall this cottage will suit buyers looking for a characterful family home in a very affluent, commuter-friendly village who are happy to carry out modest energy upgrades and cosmetic updating to maximise the property’s potential.
