Description

A PRIVATE HAVEN OF STYLE, SPACE, AND GARDEN LIVING

Tucked away in a peaceful setting on the edge of Halifax, Woodcroft is a home that effortlessly blends refined interiors with a lifestyle centred around light, space, and exceptional outdoor living of approximately 1.44 acres. This beautifully appointed detached bungalow, enhanced by a thoughtfully designed first floor, offers versatile accommodation with a finish of outstanding quality throughout.

From the moment you arrive, there’s a sense that this is somewhere special – where elegant design meets everyday comfort, and where the gardens are just as much a part of the home as the interiors themselves.

THE HEART OF THE HOME – OPEN, SOCIAL, INVITING
At the core of Woodcroft lies a truly impressive living kitchen, designed for both relaxed family life and effortless entertaining. Bathed in natural light from its dual-aspect outlook, the space enjoys uninterrupted views across the gardens, drawing the outside in.

The bespoke Nobilia kitchen is as functional as it is striking, complete with illuminated cabinetry that brings a subtle sense of theatre to everyday moments. A generous breakfast island comfortably seats four – perfect for morning coffee, casual dining, or evening drinks while cooking.

A suite of high-spec integrated appliances ensures a seamless experience, including Siemens and NEFF appliances, a Franke instant boiling water tap, and multiple ovens for those who love to host.

The adjoining living area is warm and welcoming, centred around a log burner set within a stone surround. Two sets of French doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a natural flow between indoor and outdoor living – ideal for summer gatherings or simply enjoying the changing seasons.

SPACES TO GATHER, CONNECT, AND UNWIND
A separate dining room offers a more formal setting, with tranquil garden views and its own log-burning stove, creating an inviting atmosphere for long, relaxed dinners.

The leisure and entertainment room is a standout feature – generous in size, dual-aspect, and complete with a bar area. A full-size snooker table (available for sale by separate negotiation) stands comfortably in the centre, reinforcing the room’s ample proportions. Whether hosting friends or enjoying quiet evenings in, this is a space designed to be enjoyed.

Practicality is equally well considered, with a utility room, guest WC, and integral access to a spacious garage with workshop potential.

---

RESTFUL RETREATS
The ground floor bedrooms serve as peaceful sanctuaries. One has stunning views across the garden, while the other is complete with a stylish ensuite featuring a rainfall shower and illuminated mirror. Both have fitted wardrobes.

The main bathroom is beautifully appointed, with a freestanding bath, separate shower, and contemporary floating vanity – offering a spa-like retreat at the end of the day.

---

A FIRST FLOOR WITH A VIEW
The first floor reveals a thoughtfully designed additional living space, ideal for growing families or visiting guests.

The master suite is particularly special. Positioned to make the most of its elevated outlook, three large Velux windows frame views across the gardens and open fields beyond – offering a sense of calm and connection to nature from the moment you wake.

With fitted wardrobes and a private ensuite, it’s a space that feels both luxurious and serene.

A further double bedroom, complete with built-in wardrobes and vanity desk, along with a dedicated study, provide flexibility for modern living – whether working from home or accommodating family life.

---

GARDENS TO EXPLORE, ENTERTAIN, AND ESCAPE
With a total plot size of approximately 1.44 acres, the gardens at Woodcroft are nothing short of exceptional.

An expansive lawn stretches out from the rear of the home, framed by mature trees, flowering borders, and carefully curated planting. At its centre, a fountain creates a peaceful focal point, adding to the sense of tranquillity.

Beyond lies a hidden ‘outer’ garden – more natural, slightly wild, and perfect for those who appreciate a softer, more organic landscape. It’s a space to explore, unwind, and feel completely removed from the everyday.

For those who love to entertain, the outdoor offering continues with a decked seating area complete with a bar – an idyllic setting for summer evenings, sun lounging with a drink in hand, or hosting friends long into the night.

Practical additions include multiple large sheds, a greenhouse, and an awning-covered seating area – ensuring the garden is as functional as it is beautiful.

To the front of the home is an electric gated driveway for up to eight cars. The lane leading up to the driveway is also owned by the property, in addition to three of the garages, which are currently rented out to the neighbours for a nominal charge.
