Description
Perfect for families and professionals, this impressive Grade II listed barn conversion occupies a rural position in the shadow of Castle Hill.
The panoramic views that this wonderful home enjoys will be the envy of many, taking in all of Huddersfield and beyond.
Appointed to an exacting standard, the property blends modern high-quality fixtures and fittings with the traditional character associated with Grade II listed conversions.
Enter into a welcoming and spacious reception hall which has a walk-in boot room, and access to the very pleasant home office; this is an excellent house for those who work from home.
As you wander through the house, be sure to keep your bearings as there is so much to enjoy, with many exposed timbers, two large fireplaces with gas-fired stoves, and views from almost every window. You're sure to keep an eye out for the Victoria Tower, and other landmarks across the town as you glance outward.
Spacious accommodation is on offer with three large reception rooms (one of which is presently used as a rather palatial home office which could easily be used as a ground floor bedroom 5 if required).
There is a spacious and attractively fitted dining kitchen that opens onto a rear patio, making it perfect for alfresco dining.
The kitchen has granite worktops, and appliances to include a large gas fired AGA with cooker hood, wine fridge and dishwasher. The dining area accommodates a good sized table. Note the exposed roof truss and beams.
A useful utility room, and ground floor w.c. complete the living accommodation.
On the first floor, which is accessed via two separate beautifully crafted staircases, are: -
A master bedroom suite which has a large walk-in dressing room and beautiful en-suite bathroom. Indeed, all of the sanitary fittings are of an excellent standard. Adjacent is the fourth bedroom which has its own en-suite shower room.
Two further large double bedrooms share another superb bathroom in the bedroom wing at the far end of the house, which also has a lovely galleried landing which has a seating area overlooking the barn arch, chandelier and main reception room.
Standing in a generous plot, the house is approached via a long electric gated driveway that provides ample parking; there is a large garage 17' x 17' (approx.), and lawned gardens. A generous viewing deck incorporates a pergola and hot tub - relax in the evenings with a few bubbles and a fabulous view.
Surrounded by local countryside, it is perfect for those who enjoy the outdoors. There are some lovely local walks and scenery with wonderful views all around.
Locally there are places to eat out and socialise in a variety of villages; there are local schools for children of all ages, and amenities of every description are on hand in Almondbury and Honley.
There is a local train station in Honley connecting Huddersfield with Sheffield, and there are excellent road links too; making this an ideal base for professionals. Huddersfield and Holmfirth are around ten minutes away by car.
Only an internal inspection will fully reveal the true nature, size and exceptional quality of this beautiful stone-built family home.
