Tucked away from the roadside and approached via a sweeping gravel drive, Old Muslin Hall is a captivating Grade II listed residence dating back to the late 1700s. Set within generous lawned gardens and just over a mile from the vibrant centre of Holmfirth, this distinguished four-bedroom detached home combines historic charm with spacious family living. Complete with a detached double garage and a versatile studio/office, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a home of true character in the heart of the Holme Valley.

Constructed in the late 18th century and originally believed to have been a farmhouse, Old Muslin Hall showcases a wealth of period craftsmanship. Its handsome hammer-dressed stone façade, traditional stone slate roof, mullioned windows, impressive King Post truss and exposed beams all speak to its heritage. Over the years, the property has been thoughtfully restored and updated, creating a comfortable and well-proportioned home arranged across three floors.

Occupying a generous, largely level plot, the gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and positioned to enjoy sunlight throughout the day. The accommodation includes a welcoming dining kitchen, a characterful lounge, utility room and WC to the ground floor. The first floor hosts three bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom, while the second floor provides a substantial family room alongside a further bedroom. A traditional cellar adds additional storage and character.

A lengthy gravel driveway provides ample parking and leads to a detached double garage, with an adjoining outbuilding that now serves as an ideal home office, studio or hobby space-perfect for modern lifestyles.

Set back from Heys Road, the home enjoys gardens to three sides with mature trees, established planting and a stone-flagged terrace to the rear-ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining in complete privacy. Homes of this calibre and historic significance seldom come to market in this highly regarded school catchment area, so close to Holmfirth’s array of independent shops, restaurants and amenities.

Dining Kitchen - The entrance opens into a spacious and inviting family kitchen fitted with cream wooden base and wall units topped with oak work surfaces. A Belfast sink is set within the cabinetry, which extends to house an American-style fridge freezer (available by separate negotiation). A striking stone fireplace with raised hearth accommodates a multi-fuel stove, creating a warm focal point. Exposed ceiling beams and a slate floor enhance the rustic appeal, with the flooring continuing into the adjoining utility. Windows to both front and rear elevations flood the space with natural light. Beneath the staircase lies built-in storage and access to a traditional cellar featuring worn stone steps and original stone shelving.
