Penthouse, Broadfold Hall, Luddenden HX2

Penthouse Elegance Above the Valley

Stepping onto the grounds of Broadfold Hall, you aren't just arriving at a home; you are stepping into a piece of West Yorkshire's industrial history. Built in 1877 for the Murgatroyd family-the wealthy owners of the nearby Oats Royd Mill-this Grade II listed Italianate mansion stands as a testament to 19th-century grandeur. The experience begins at the main road, where a long, sweeping driveway leads you upward through select, elegant grounds to this elevated sanctuary. Inside the Hall, the communal entrance sets a sophisticated tone with its beautifully furnished decor and a grand staircase that hints at the scale of the architecture.

The Penthouse Experience


Located on the second floor, this executive penthouse offers a seamless blend of Victorian heritage and clever modern upgrades. It is a remarkably warm property with low heating bills and new electrics throughout, ensuring peace of mind alongside its period charm.

The journey begins in the large private entrance hallway leading the the expansive kitchen/diner/lounge space, which serves as the heart of the home. Bathed in light, this space is as functional as it is stylish, featuring integrated appliances including a dishwasher, cooker, hob, and washing machine. The clever mobile central island provides total flexibility-keep it central for morning coffee or glide it aside to create a grand open space for entertaining.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a dual-aspect room, currently utilised as a living room but previously used as bedroom 3. Large windows frame breathtaking, far-reaching views over the valley, offering an ever-changing landscape that serves as live art for your relaxation space or additional bedroom.

In addition, the penthouse features two distinct and thoughtfully designed bedroom wings. Bedroom one is a serene retreat featuring double doors that open directly into a private, spacious ensuite bathroom.

The second bedroom is a masterclass in modern design, featuring a glass wall that separates the sleeping area from the shower room, with a fitted curtain provided for instant privacy. This room also benefits from high-tech skylights; these remote-controlled windows feature automatic sensors that detect rain and close themselves, allowing you to enjoy the breeze without ever worrying about a change in weather.

The Estate and Lifestyle


Owning this penthouse means more than just four walls; the purchaser acquires a 1/12th share of the entire estate. The grounds are a true extension of the home, offering a sunken garden perfect for quiet reflection and access to allotments for those with a green thumb looking to grow their own produce. Unlike many heritage conversions, dogs are welcome here, making it a true home for the whole family.

The apartment is characterised by open space and plenty of natural light - windows align two sides of the property, all having spectacular panoramic views of the Luddenden valley.

Located in the picturesque rural area of Luddenden, you enjoy the tranquillity of the countryside while remaining perfectly connected via a local bus route and just five minutes from the main a-road.

Offered with no onward chain and available immediately, this is a rare opportunity to own a portion of Luddenden's history.
