House For Sale £600,000
Palace House Road, Hebden Bridge HX7 6HW

With excellent gardens front and back this property is one-of-a-kind and ticks all the boxes as an outstanding family home. Located in a peaceful spot and backing onto woodland the house enjoys excellent privacy, yet you couldn't be better placed for everything Hebden Bridge has to offer; the wide range of independent cafes, shops, bars and restaurants are just a short stroll away. Even better, the railway station is a stone's throw from the front door, offering excellent links to Leeds, Manchester and stations beyond. If you prefer to travel by car you'll be pleased to hear there's also driveway parking for multiple vehicles and potential to add a garage too, if you wish.

Built in the 1920s, this handsome stone-fronted property has been carefully extended over the years to create a large, light and bright home with a very pleasing layout. All the rooms are an excellent size making for bags of reception space - there are two living rooms, a spacious kitchen, a large dining room and utility space on the ground floor, plus four large double bedrooms and two bathrooms on the upper floors. The house retains some delightful features, including an original terrazzo floor and elegant wall panelling in the hallway. A particularly eye-catching feature is the delicately coloured stained glass which has been carefully preserved and sympathetically incorporated into energy-efficient double glazed windows.

Opening the front door the elegant hallway makes for a welcoming start, and there's a large cupboard under the stairs, perfect for storing coats and shoes. Straight ahead a door opens into the second sitting room / snug which is an excellent size and beautifully lit thanks to the large bay window. The brick chimney breast creates an attractive focal point and also houses a woodburning stove - it's easy to imagine spending a chilly winter's day snuggled up with a newspaper!

Beyond here a door leads into the very generous kitchen. The plentiful units are solid wood, locally-made by Drew Forsyth, with black granite worktops and an undermounted sink. All the appliances are built in - there's a fridge-freezer, dishwasher, electric double oven, 5-ring gas hob and chimney extractor. The kitchen is semi open-plan to the dining room, and there are matching cupboards in here for a harmonious feel. Part of a modern extension, it's a very brightly lit space with room for a large dining table to seat the whole family plus visiting friends too! Just off here there's a handy guest cloakroom and utility space with more kitchen storage including a second fridge freezer and room for the washing machine and tumble drier.

Finally on the ground floor, the main living room is just off the hall. This is another really big room, with a huge bay window, coving to the ceiling, an attractive gas fire and smart blue dÈcor, ideal for the whole family to gather together.

Upstairs, and the first floor comprises three large double bedrooms (one ensuite) plus the family bathroom, which has recently been refitted. On the second floor is a sizeable fourth double bedroom with a large dormer window overlooking the back garden - an amazing space which is brilliantly lit and could make a fantastic artist's studio or hobby room. There's also excellent loft storage available off this room and another above the dining room. Should the upstairs space not be sufficient it's also worth knowing there's the possibility of extending the first floor into the space above the dining room.

Outside, and the front and back gardens both offer great privacy and are an excellent size. To the front the large driveway skirts a lovely sheltered seating area ideally located for a cuppa in the sunshine. Alongside the house there's a good sized space for parking, or you may wish to add a garage here, subject to planning permission. Meanwhile to the back of the house the garden is tiered, offering paved spaces to sit as well as plenty of room to exercise your green fingers. Further up the garden opens onto an attractive lawned area ideal for a kick-around with the kids, with a gate leading into woodland and the local footpath network.

To summarise this outstanding property offers the opportunity to snap up a sizeable detached home with large gardens in an excellent Hebden Bridge location. Even better, it's a chain-free sale, so don't risk missing out, call now, 24/7, and book your place to view. We're waiting to show you around!
