Guide price £650,000 - £675,000. A Captivating Three-Bedroom Detached Barn Conversion with Almost Two Acres, Substantial Outbuildings and Panoramic Countryside Views — Outskirts of Marsden, Huddersfield

guide price £650,000 - £675,000 Tucked away on the rural fringe of Marsden, this exceptional detached barn conversion offers a rare combination of character, comfort and lifestyle opportunity. Set in grounds approaching two acres and framed by breathtaking views, the property has been beautifully presented throughout, recently redecorated and fitted with new carpets, and comes complete with an impressive array of outbuildings including a 30ft detached barn, a bespoke hand-built garage with log-burning stove, and a fully equipped gym with sauna.

A welcoming entrance hallway with tiled floor creates a strong first impression, with stairs rising to the first floor and a useful storage cupboard tucked beneath. Off the hall lies a stylish ground floor bathroom, fitted with a white three-piece suite comprising bath with shower over, vanity wash basin and low-flush WC. Across the hallway, a generous bedroom provides excellent versatility, equally well-suited as a guest room, study or home office.

From here, a small stone staircase leads down to a superb living room where a newly installed log-burning stove forms a warm focal point. A further door opens into the charming kitchen, fitted with rustic oak wall and base units, a Belfast sink, range cooker, wine chiller and space for appliances. The vendor has thoughtfully included the washing machine and fridge-freezer within the sale. The kitchen enjoys a glorious outlook over the land to the rear, with French doors opening directly onto the garden terrace — an idyllic space for entertaining, dining al fresco or simply soaking in the views.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom is a truly striking space; a generous double with dual-aspect windows, a log-burning stove and a vaulted ceiling open to the roof space, showcasing the exposed beams and roof trusses that hint at the building’s heritage. The second bedroom, also a spacious double, enjoys similar character features and benefits from its own en-suite shower room.

Beneath the main house, accessed externally from the gardens, lies a further versatile room currently used as a home gym. This space also houses the sauna and enjoys French doors opening directly into the gardens, making it equally suitable as a hobby room or additional living space.

The grounds are a key feature of this property, extending to almost two acres and incorporating a field, expansive lawned gardens and several paved terrace areas that follow the sun throughout the day. A large driveway provides generous parking and leads to the detached garage, a hand-built structure complete with a log-burning stove — perfect for workshop use, storage, or as a unique leisure space. The 30ft detached barn offers further scope for storage, equestrian or leisure purposes, subject to any necessary consents.

The sale will include a number of valuable items: A Murray ride-on lawnmower, jcb digger and dumper, the sauna and gym equipment, and a selection of garden tools and items as seen.

Located just outside the vibrant village of Marsden, the property combines a sense of rural seclusion with exceptional convenience. The village offers a train station with direct links to Huddersfield, Manchester and beyond, along with a welcoming community, independent shops, cafés and stunning countryside walks.

This is a home of rare distinction, where every element — from the character architecture to the land, outbuildings and lifestyle potential — blends to create an outstanding country retreat.
