House For Sale £575,000
Nestled in the heart of this popular village, this delightful versatile home with its amazing views won't be around for long! Fabulous well fitted kitchen; lounge/dining room with feature double sided multi fuel stove; sheltered enclosed low maintenance garden; off road parking for 2 cars. No chain.
Located in the very heart of Scholes yet tucked away behind white electric gates, Whitegate Cottage is a real delight. Originally a three bedroom cottage dating back to c1850, the current owners added an architect designed extension in 2014 to create a very spacious and versatile 4/5 bed home that makes the most of its location and the far reaching views from the rear.
Downstairs, to the right off the well-proportioned hallway is the lounge and dining room which run the full length of the property and are divided by a striking double sided multi fuel stove set on reclaimed Yorkshire stone flags. These two rooms are the perfect place to host dinner parties or curl up on cooler autumn and winter evenings in front of a roaring fire. The lounge is at the rear and has French doors leading out onto a decked terrace. On warmer evenings, you can open these doors and let your guests spill out onto the terrace where they can take advantage of those amazing views. These, combined with the further two pairs of French doors from the kitchen, create a fabulous entertaining space.
The large living kitchen is at the rear of the property and is one truly great space and it's not just about the French doors out onto the terrace! If you enjoy cooking, then you'll love this room. The large island offers more than enough worktop space and there is an excellent range of Shaker style base and wall units plus large drawers for all your storage needs. All the appliances are fully integrated and include a large larder style fridge and two freezers. Cooking can be done on the 5 zone induction hob or in the two multi function ovens / grills / microwave. Offering flexible dining and seating options, there is a breakfast bar at one end of the island plus sufficient space for another dining table and chairs should you wish.
On this floor, there is also bedroom five which is a smaller double currently used as a second lounge. There is also a downstairs cloakroom.
Upstairs, there's a spacious landing off which are four bedrooms. The dual aspect principal bedroom, with its ensuite shower room, is very spacious with French doors (with perfect fit blinds) out onto a Juliet balcony from where you can make the most of the fabulous uninterrupted views across the hills. On sunny mornings, you can open your curtains and let the sun stream in.
Two of the three other bedrooms, one of which has fitted wardrobes, are large doubles; the fourth is a single that is currently used as an office. On this floor there is also a spacious well fitted bathroom with a large bath and separate corner shower cubicle.
There are two loft spaces with the main loft accessed from the landing via a wooden loft ladder. It is exceptionally spacious and has power and light as well as housing the combi boiler. As well as offering more storage space than you could possibly need, the far end could be used as a hobby room or den. Please note, there is restricted head height!
Outside: At the front, electric remote controlled gates (with 2 way intercom system) open onto a driveway allowing parking for two cars. There is automatic dusk to dawn lighting down the driveway side of the house. The sheltered enclosed front garden is tiered and planted with mature shrubs and flowering plants and a patio in the corner of the upper level. Tucked away at the far end is a sheltered sunny resin patio area with retractable awning to provide shade. The rear garden is low maintenance and a combination of flagged patio and timber decking. It's perfect for enjoying a morning cuppa, light lunch, the occasional aperitif, not to mention al fresco dining. As well as a log store, there's a handy shed next to a cosy sheltered nook. The far reaching uninterrupted views from the rear garden are simply stunning.
Scholes is a small village on the south side of the Holme Valley. Local amenities include a convenience store, The Boot and Shoe pub and a renowned fish and chip shop. There are beautiful countryside walks almost on the doorstep and it's a short stroll to both Totties and Brooklands Garden Centres. It also offers easy access to main commuter routes to Huddersfield, Manchester, Wakefield, Leeds and Sheffield plus a bus stop close by for buses into Holmfirth and Huddersfield in one direction and Hepworth and Jackson Bridge in the other. The location is perfect for taking advantage of everything that Holmfirth and the Holme Valley have to offer including its shops, cafes, bars and restaurants and its entertainment venues and community activities.
