Set on an elevated plot in Kirkburton, this end-terrace stone cottage delivers genuine period character and wide valley views. The lounge and open-plan dining-kitchen retain exposed beams, stone flag floors and an inglenook fireplace, creating an atmospheric family living space. Outside, the generous rear lawn, flagged patio and tree-lined backdrop provide private outdoor space for children, pets or entertaining.
Practical features include mains gas central heating, double glazing and a useful vaulted cellar with stone-flagged floor — a rare cellar offering potential for storage or conversion subject to consents. The property is freehold with off-street hardstanding nearby and easy access to the village high street, schools rated Good and Outstanding, and commuter links.
The cottage is a restoration opportunity rather than a turn-key home. The walls are original sandstone/limestone with no installed insulation assumed, and the EPC is D, so further thermal improvement and modernisation would increase comfort and long-term value. The front access lane is shared with neighbours and the boundary shown is approximate, so buyers should check legal details and survey requirements.
This home suits buyers seeking character, country views and a substantial garden who are prepared to carry out energy upgrades and sympathetic updating. For families or buyers wanting a village base with scope to add value, the setting and plot make this a strong, character-filled proposition.
