About Dock Hill House
This stone built semi-detached house was renovated and restored circa 1999 in line with its listed building status and we had the pleasure of selling it to the current owners at that time. It was renovated to an excellent standard at the time and our clients have preserved and improved it throughout their 26 years of ownership. The property enjoys a pleasant position within the village conservation area with views onto a small wooded valley at the rear.

It is arranged over 3 floors which provide flexible accommodation which must be seen internally to be appreciated. On the lower ground floor you will find a generous dining kitchen with slate tiled floor, fitted units, mullioned windows and exposed beams. Also on this level is a utility room and downstairs wc.

On the middle floor (upper ground level) there is a good sized lounge which again features beams, mullioned windows and a stone chimney breast. There is a lovely sitting room which is used as a study but has in the past doubled up as an occasional 4th bedroom, a playroom, or sometimes a dining room. There is also a more compact office on this level.

Moving up to the first floor there is a landing, 3 bedrooms and bathroom. The principal bedroom has a high angled ceiling and en-suite shower room. The other 2 bedrooms feature mezzanine style sleeping platforms, high angled ceilings and mullioned windows. These rooms are served by the house bathroom with its traditional suite in white.

There is a gas central heating system and Velfac composite framed double glazed windows which are installed with listed building consent. Good quality modern fittings compliment the array of original features.

Externally there is a small garden at the front of the building where the upper ground floor entrance can be found. The main rear garden is much larger and features lawned areas, well stocked borders, paved seating and enjoys pleasant views. Beyond this is a large detached garage / workshop and additional parking in front.

The village of Netherthong is one of the Holme Valley’s most popular, having 2 village pubs, a small convenience store, church and village school. The centre of Holmfirth with its many amenities including the outstanding rated Holmfirth High School, is also within easy reach and there are countryside walks to be enjoyed virtually from the doorstep.
