Slaithwaite, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire HD7

Guide price £500,000-£525,000 An exciting renovation opportunity to purchase a detached farmhouse in a peaceful semi-rural setting near Slaithwaite, enjoying generous gardens and outstanding views across the Colne Valley. EPC F

This is a truly unique opportunity to acquire a detached farmhouse, occupying a delightful semi-rural position just a short distance from the ever-popular village of Slaithwaite. Tucked away off the beaten track along a private country lane, the property forms part of a small hamlet with just one neighbouring home, offering peace, privacy and breathtaking panoramic views across the Colne Valley.

Set within generous gardens to both the front and rear, the farmhouse enjoys an enviable outlook and an abundance of outdoor space – ideal for those seeking a lifestyle property with room to garden, entertain or simply relax and take in the scenery.

Requiring renovation, the property presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to create a bespoke family home. Previously arranged as four bedrooms and currently functioning as three, the accommodation offers superb potential, with character features waiting to be restored and enhanced.

The ground floor comprises two reception rooms, the largest being a particularly impressive dual-aspect living space with stunning valley views and a log-burning stove, creating a wonderful focal point. The second reception room was intended to become a family kitchen and has been stripped back in preparation, providing a blank canvas for new owners to configure to their own specification. There is also a separate kitchen enjoying the same far-reaching views and benefitting from integral access to the adjoining garage, along with a guest WC and inner hallway with staircase rising to the first floor.

To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom, including a generous principal bedroom with an adjoining room ideal for use as a walk-in wardrobe or potential en-suite (subject to the necessary consents). The fourth bedroom is currently utilised as a home office, providing a practical and versatile space for remote working or study.

The adjoining garage offers further exciting potential, featuring a double-height space that could lend itself to conversion or enhancement (again subject to the relevant approvals).

Externally, the property is complemented by substantial gardens to both the front and rear, offering ample space for planting, vegetable growing, or simply enjoying the tranquil surroundings and spectacular views.

Despite its idyllic setting, the property remains conveniently positioned close to the vibrant centre of Slaithwaite, which boasts a railway station with excellent commuter links, a well-regarded selection of independent shops, cafés and restaurants, and highly regarded local schooling. The popular village of Marsden is also within easy reach, offering further amenities and access to the surrounding Pennine countryside.

A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a characterful home in an exceptional setting, brimming with potential to create something truly special.
