House For Sale £270,000
Looking for a real hidden gem! This fabulous cottage with its many character features is nestled in a quiet corner yet a few minutes' walk to the centre of Holmfirth and all it has to offer. In walk in condition, it would make an ideal home for professionals and would also make a great holiday home.
This fabulous cottage really is in a very private and secluded spot yet close to the centre of Holmfirth so it is easy to enjoy everything that this normally vibrant market town has to offer before retreating back to the peace and quiet. Previously used as both an occasional holiday let and extended family accommodation, it lends itself to being either a holiday home/ let or a home for professionals or young families.
It's so secluded that you really do need to know where you're going! Access is via the barriers at the main entrance to Holmfirth Dyers towards the bottom of Dunford Road and then up a slight incline to the right and along a short footpath to a gate. Come through the gate into an enclosed secure garden at the front of the property. The property sits nestled in front of rock face so all the main rooms and the windows face the garden.
Originally 2 cottages that have been sympathetically converted into one, you can immediately see and feel the character that awaits you. Inside, there are ceiling beams in abundance, thick stone walls, exposed stonework, mullion windows, neat alcoves and hidden corners. Tastefully decorated throughout in white with subtle complimentary colours, it is just waiting for you to put your own personal stamp on it.
The front door takes you directly into the dining kitchen and your first impression may well be surprise at how spacious this property is and how well presented. The kitchen has a good range of quality oak base and wall units with an oak worktop. There is ample space for a large table and chairs - indeed, the wood and granite dining table and chairs are included. Where better to chat over the day's activities or entertain friends while cooking meals on the 5 ring gas range.
At the back of the kitchen is very useful utility space with plumbing for a washing machine and space for a dryer.
Back out to the kitchen and through to the spacious lounge. This is a lovely warm room with a large multi fuel wood burning stove set into a recessed brick and stone fireplace. Another great entertaining space, it is also just the place to curl up in these cold winter evenings. During the day, the room is light thanks to the large window plus the full length window which was originally a door when the property was 2 separate cottages.
At the back of the lounge, past the recessed shelving, there's a step up into an interesting little snug or office space or perhaps a play area. There's also a cheeky opening back in the lounge allowing you to keep an eye on what's going in the lounge or vice versa! At one end there's a useful storage cupboard.
In the back corner of the lounge are the stairs to the first floor. Here, there is a long landing with a white painted stone wall and useful cupboard at the far end. A velux window adds light. Off this landing are the 3 bedrooms and the bathroom.
The 3 bedrooms are all small doubles decorated in neutral colours with white painted ceiling beams so creating a calm ambiance throughout and offering a blank canvas for you to put your own mark on.
At the far end of the landing, the spacious bathroom is a real delight. Painted throughout in white with pale tiles on part of the walls and a grey tiled floor, it feels cool and sophisticated. The claw foot free standing bath is just perfect for luxuriating and some me' time after a busy day. Or you can have an invigorating shower in the large corner shower.
Outside, the garden is at the front. The path from the gate neatly divides it into grassed areas with neat borders and a patio. The area below the patio is the ideal place for a firepit or bbq. So, when the weather is better, it's the perfect place to chill and to entertain. With high fences on all sides, the garden is very private as well as secure so ideal for young children and pets.
Parking is on Dunford Road and the property has 2 permits allowing parking in restricted areas.
The location is perfect for taking advantage of Holmfirth's shops, bars and restaurants and its entertainment venues as well as offering easy access to the road network and to public transport.
This property includes:
