Externally, the property continues to impress. The main driveway leads to a detached double garage with automated doors and an EV charger, while a broad gravelled parking area provides ample additional space for several vehicles. Both the house and garage benefit from an alarm system and CCTV, providing additional security. Gated access continues to the rear, where there is a substantial yard area adjoining the stable block. The stable is complemented by an extra large attached tack room, which benefits from its own separate alarm system. Winter turnout for two horses is positioned around and behind the stable, providing a practical and convenient arrangement for equestrian use. The formal gardens wrap beautifully around the side and rear of the house and are thoughtfully landscaped with established shrubs, mature planting and attractive borders. Beyond the gardens lies an expansive grass paddock, leading back towards the stables and creating a superb setting for those seeking space, privacy and excellent equestrian facilities.
The property occupies a highly desirable position on the fringe of Badsworth, a sought after village renowned for its attractive surroundings and strong sense of community. Within the village itself is the highly regarded Badsworth Church of England Voluntary Controlled Junior and Infant School, while the property is also conveniently placed for Ackworth Quaker School. Badsworth Village Hall provides a focal point for the local community, hosting a variety of social activities and clubs, while a private yoga barn within the village offers yoga, Pilates and craft clubs. A wider range of everyday amenities can be found in nearby Ackworth, Pontefract and Wakefield. Excellent road links, mainline railway stations and convenient access to the national motorway network make the location ideal for those seeking a peaceful village setting while remaining well connected.
