House For Sale £625,000
Tucked away in a wonderfully private and semi-rural setting, The Grey House sits in spacious gardens and is designed to make the most of its surroundings; the large windows and French doors bring the lush outside into the main living spaces. With 5 double bedrooms and expansive reception rooms, the house covers over 2500 square feet, and with approximately 0.7 acres of garden surrounded by mature shrubs and trees the space is simply luxurious. Outbuildings include a double garage with ample space for timber and tool storage and a garden shed. There is also scope to extend the garage or build a second workshop to the rear on the existing poured slab. The Grey House has been completely refitted by the current owner to a high specification including a large social kitchen/diner and great room style lounge with sliding doors onto a glass fronted balcony overlooking the main lawns. The rest of the property comprises one master/king/ensuite room on the upper ground floor and 4 double/kings rooms on the lower ground floor along with another ensuite and the master bathroom. A separate utility room, study and 2 separate cloakrooms complete this ideal family home.

Close to Castle Hill, Almondbury is perfectly placed only 3 miles from Huddersfield Town Centre and positioned on great transport links.
