Description
GUIDE PRICE £1,000,000 - £1,100,000. An exceptional country residence extending to over 3,000 sq ft, occupying approximately 3 acres of private grounds with beautifully landscaped gardens, paddock-style field and electric gated entrance. EPC C
Mulberry Brook is an exceptional country residence occupying a privileged position between the highly sought-after villages of Marsden and Slaithwaite. Set discreetly within approximately private grounds incorporating extensive gardens and an adjoining paddock-style field, this impressive detached home extends to over 3,000 square feet of beautifully appointed accommodation, offering an enviable balance of privacy, versatility and connectivity.
Approached via a private road, the property is set well back from the roadside behind electrically operated entrance gates, creating an immediate sense of exclusivity and arrival. A sweeping driveway leads to an extensive parking and turning area, whilst a secondary gated entrance provides additional access, making the property equally practical for family life as it is impressive.
Having been significantly enhanced by the current owners, the centrepiece of the home is undoubtedly the recently commissioned architect-designed dining kitchen. Beautifully finished with quartz work surfaces and an extensive range of bespoke cabinetry, it has been thoughtfully designed for modern family living and entertaining alike. Premium appliances include a Rangemaster Pro 110 range cooker, integrated oven with air fryer functionality, built-in Neff coffee machine, Quooker boiling water tap and a host of carefully considered design features that combine style with practicality.
The generous living accommodation has been designed to adapt effortlessly to the needs of modern family life. The principal lounge is a particularly impressive space, where solid wood parquet flooring, generous proportions and a dual-sided open fireplace create an elegant yet welcoming atmosphere. Flowing through into the adjoining snug, the feature fireplace forms a striking focal point whilst providing warmth and character throughout both spaces.
Further reception rooms include an elegant sitting room with bi-folding doors opening directly onto one of the property's entertaining terraces, a formal dining room which could equally serve as a home office, a separate study and a substantial games room. Collectively, these versatile spaces offer exceptional flexibility whether working from home, entertaining guests or simply enjoying everyday family life.
A particularly appealing aspect of Mulberry Brook is its highly adaptable layout. Part of the accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged to provide the potential for self-contained living, making it ideal for multi-generational families, dependent relatives, older children seeking independence or even those looking to create guest accommodation, subject to individual requirements.
The first floor is equally impressive. A magnificent galleried landing creates a wonderful sense of space and leads to five generously proportioned double bedrooms. The principal suite enjoys an elevated position overlooking the gardens and surrounding valley, complete with a private balcony, luxurious en-suite bathroom and an exceptional sense of peace and seclusion. The remaining bedrooms are all well-proportioned and served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom.
Outside, the grounds are every bit as impressive as the accommodation itself. Mature lawns, established trees and well-stocked borders create a wonderful natural setting that attracts an abundance of wildlife while providing complete privacy. A choice of beautifully positioned terraces allows the gardens to be enjoyed throughout the day, whether entertaining guests, dining alfresco or simply relaxing whilst taking in the far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.
Beyond the formal gardens lies an adjoining paddock-style field, adding further appeal and offering a wealth of possibilities for those seeking additional outdoor space. Furthermore, the land has been promoted through the Local Plan process and, subject to all necessary planning consents and purchaser due diligence, may offer longer-term development potential, presenting an exciting opportunity to acquire not only an outstanding family home but also a property with future strategic value.
Despite its wonderfully private setting, Mulberry Brook remains exceptionally well connected. Situated midway between Marsden and Slaithwaite, both villages offer an excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, bars and everyday amenities, together with railway stations providing direct links to Manchester and Leeds. The M62 motorway is also within easy reach, making commuting straightforward whilst allowing residents to enjoy the outstanding scenery of the National Trust estate and nearby Saddleworth Moors, with countless walking, cycling and outdoor pursuits virtually on the doorstep.
Combining substantial accommodation, outstanding versatility, exceptional privacy and a truly idyllic setting, Mulberry Brook represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the area's most distinctive family homes.
