Sheffield Road, New Mill, Holmfirth, West Yorkshire, HD9

UNEXPECTEDLY BACK ON THE MARKET! CASH BUYERS ONLY! This delightful quirky character cottage is a real hidden gem. Tucked away down a grassy path with views to the woodland, it's the perfect bolt hole or holiday cottage. Available with vacant possession and no onward chain.

Tucked away at the back of this cluster of cottages in Jackson Bridge, this one bedroom under dwelling is an absolute delight and a real hidden gem. Accessed via a long grassy path off the top of Bank Street, it's almost totally hidden from view. Approaching it, you almost feel you are going for a woodland walk as the back of this cluster of properties overlooks woodland with a babbling brook below. Once you do find it, you are in for a real and very pleasant surprise.

Come through the gate, along the path to the door. Stepping inside, you're in a compact entrance hall off which is a useful storage cupboard which currently houses a dryer. To the right, the door leads into a cosy lounge. The focal point is a striking stone fireplace with a gas stove that is currently disconnected. At the back of the lounge is an alcove. Although currently used as storage, it has light so would make a great office space.

Next to the alcove, stone stairs lead down to the kitchen and the bathroom. The Shaker style kitchen is small but perfectly formed with good cupboard storage and solid oak worktops. There's space for a free standing fridge/freezer and it's plumbed for a washing machine. There is space for a small table if you wanted one.

The bathroom is a real surprise not least as it is quite spacious. There's a large walk in shower with rain shower and hand held attachment and the round basin is intriguingly ornate!

Now let's head back up to the lounge. In the back corner, a barn door leads up the stairs to the bedroom. This too is a surprisingly spacious room with plenty of space for a king size bed. The views towards the woodland are delightful.

Outside – The west facing enclosed garden is laid out on two levels. The top level closest to the house has a flagged path with a small lawn on one side and decorative pebbles on the other. The lower level is flagged with raised flower beds. It's the perfect place to relax in the afternoon and evening sun, listening to the burbling brook at the bottom and enjoying the birdsong in the trees.

Please note that parking is on the road on Bank Street. There is also right of access across the top part of the garden for the neighbouring property.

Given its condition, presentation, low maintenance and location, this cottage has great potential as a holiday let / AIR BnB. Cash buyers only please.

This truly delightful cottage is in a great location as there's easy access to the amenities in New Mill and to the local pubs in Jackson Bridge. The local shop in Scholes is a short stroll up the hill. There's also easy access to Holmfirth and the Holme Valley as well as to main commuter routes to Huddersfield, Manchester, Wakefield and Sheffield. For train travelers, it's a short drive to Brockholes railway station where you can take advantage the convenient hourly service between Huddersfield and Sheffield.
