Description
This stunning and unique Grade II listed barn conversion is a rare find in the popular village of Midgley. The middle of just three homes in this exclusive conversion, which was completed in 2000, it boasts a range of exceptional features, including a garage, separate annexe, generous gardens, and approximately 4 acres of land.
As you approach the property from Towngate, you'll cross a quaint cobbled courtyard that sets the tone for the character and charm that awaits inside.
The large, impressive glazed front door opens into a welcoming snug area, complete with a multifuel stove, creating a cozy atmosphere from the moment you step inside. This area could also be utilised as a more formal entrance area if so desired.
Continue ahead into the heart of this home, the striking and characterful kitchen diner. This space is beautifully designed with exposed beams, breakfast bar, an attractive gas fuelled AGA cooker, Belfast sink, and integrated appliances including an American fridge freezer and dishwasher. There is ample cupboard and worktop space as well as a handy storage cupboard. The open plan layout, complemented by the attractive stone floor, makes this room perfect for both everyday living and entertaining.
The inner hallway provides useful hanging space for outdoor wear and access to two of the home's characterful double bedrooms. These rooms feature rustic exposed wooden floorboards that enhance the property's charm, whilst also offering versatility to be used as additional living space if so desired. Bedroom three has been used as a cinema room and child's playroom and bedroom four is currently used as a dressing room and large walk-in wardrobe.
Also located on the ground floor of the home is a useful understairs cupboard, a stylish shower room with a white two piece suite and corner shower cubicle and a useful L shaped utility cupboard providing extra storage and housing the house's heat recovery ventilation system which circulates fresh air into the bedrooms.
The first floor houses an impressive mezzanine living room with exposed wooden floorboards and double height pitched ceiling, glass balconies allow natural light to flood in, highlighting the home's stunning features.
Two further double bedrooms are found on this floor, both benefitting from exposed stonework and skylight windows that add to the airy and bright atmosphere.
The stunning family bathroom includes a stylish and traditional suite with a roll top bath, perfect for unwinding in luxury.
For those seeking a private workspace, the top floor offers a useful mezzanine office with skylight window tucked away at the highest point of the house. This secluded area provides the privacy needed for concentration and productivity or can alternatively be used as a storage space.
The traditional style and features of the main residence are continued in the separate annex which was converted in more recent years and is a stones throw from the principal building.
This well planned and homely one bedroom suite has its own parking and an elevated patio, allowing you to fully appreciate the views of the surrounding fields.
Inside, the large arched window in the living area frames the hillside, creating a serene space to relax. The open plan layout includes a sitting and dining area adjacent to the contemporary kitchen, which is equipped with modern conveniences such as an electric oven, gas hob, fridge freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine.
The good sized double bedroom at the rear of the annex, boasts a good sized en-suite shower room with a large walk in shower and a white suite.
Throughout both the main residence and the annex, the layout is enhanced by exposed beams, floorboards, and stonework, all blending seamlessly with other unique features to create a truly one of a kind home. Wherever you look there is something to take in and appreciate.
Externally, the property offers ample off road parking within the generous plot, allowing many parking options to the front or away from the house, as well as a garage accessed through an impressive arched doorway. The garage has power allowing it to be used as a further utility area and provides ample storage space.
Various outdoor areas provide the perfect spaces to relax and enjoy the attractive surroundings. These include a large patio area with a pergola and stove for warmth on cooler evenings, a separate lawned area leading into a wooded portion of the land, and the additional 4 acres that may particularly appeal to equestrians. The land with the property consists of two separate enclosed fields on the hill behind the property and a lower level portion of land directly behind the garage and annex. The land could be further enhanced for a number of reasons including equestrian needs, to create a small holding or perhaps something more lucrative.
Located in a highly sought after area with beautiful, far reaching views, this property is conveniently positioned close to Mytholmroyd, Hebden Bridge and Sowerby Bridge, with the local bus service passing nearby and various local train stations making it an easy commute to Leeds and Manchester. It's also just a short walk to the local community shop, adding to the sense of belonging in this welcoming village.
Opportunities like this are rare, and this home must be viewed to be appreciated and is not to be missed.
