  • A HOME DESIGNED WITH CLASSICAL STYLE AND MODERN LIVING

Description

Standing in approximately 2.25 acres, Building Plot Five occupies a particularly beautiful position, enjoying lovely views across its own land and woodland, with a stream passing through this attractive part of the development.

The architects have carefully designed a home of classical style, combining traditional character with modern living, creating a property which sits beautifully within its rural surroundings.

The proposed accommodation includes an entrance hall, study, superb living/dining kitchen with glazed bay overlooking the views, lounge, utility room, downstairs W.C., integral garage and four bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities, together with a house bathroom.

Externally, the property enjoys a good-sized driveway and parking area, delightful gardens, paddock and woodland measuring approximately 2.1 acres. Further adjoining fields are available by separate negotiation, with Field Option Two being particularly well suited to Plot Five for purchasers wishing to acquire additional land.

Paddock House is offered for sale within the group of other houses and land. There will be a shared cost with regards to the new infrastructure including driveway, services and drainage etc. It is estimated that the cost will be somewhere around £15,000 / £20,000 per unit. This is not yet fixed but purely as a guide.

All works within the boundaries will be the responsibility of the purchaser.

The specification and finish will be entirely at the purchaser's discretion, subject of course to the necessary planning and other relevant consents. This represents a particularly worthwhile project, occupying a beautiful rural position with a lovely outlook and considerable potential to create a superb individual country home.

Planning application number 2026/62/91280/E Kirklees Council - Plans / Architect drawings can be viewed in the Holmfirth Office by appointment only.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.

Rivers and the sea

Very low risk

Planning map: Flood Zone 1.

Surface water

High risk (1 in 30)

Important notice: Information, maps and tags on this page are drawn from the advertising agent's marketing materials or generated automatically. LandSale has not verified them. Relying on these details is at your own risk, always carry out independent checks before committing to a purchase.
