Description
A GRADE II LISTED THREE-BEDROOM BARN CONVERSION WITH SOUTH-FACING GARDENS, FAR-REACHING HILLSIDE VIEWS AND A PEACEFUL SETTING
Hillside Barn is a characterful Grade II listed semi-detached barn conversion, sympathetically converted in 2009 to modern building standards. Double glazing and gas central heating complement the property's original character, creating a comfortable home that retains the architectural interest of its historic origins.
Neutrally presented throughout, the accommodation is arranged over three floors and includes an open-plan living kitchen, three double bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a characterful top-floor bedroom with exposed timber roof trusses and its own ensuite.
Outside, south-facing gardens extend to the side and rear, with private driveway parking for two cars. Despite its peaceful hillside setting, the property is within walking distance of Warley village, the canal and Sowerby Bridge.
“What I’ve loved most about Hillside Barn is how peaceful and sunny it is. The garden gets the sun throughout the day and the house itself is lovely and warm. We’ve always loved the combination of the original character with the more modern touches – it’s a really comfortable and relaxing place to live.” - Current homeowner
