3 Lee Royd, Hebden Bridge

Lee Royd is located on Heptonstall Road, less than a five-minute walk from the centre of Hebden Bridge, renowned for its vibrant community and independent cafes, shops, bars & restaurants. Backing onto mature oak woodland, this delightful home offers the best of both worlds; for commuters the railway station is just 15 minutes walk or a short bus ride away, while footpaths from the doorstep head up through the woods towards Heptonstall and wonderful moorland beyond.

There's a short set of steps up to the front terrace, meaning the living accommodation is nicely set back and elevated above the road, further enhancing the gorgeous views from every room. While the house itself is enormously appealing, the real jewel in the crown here is the delightful rear garden. Set over several terraces rising behind the house it's a very good size, enjoying great privacy and wonderful views over the rooftops to stunning Yorkshire countryside.

The front door opens into a small lobby area, a practical space to hang coats and stash your boots after a muddy walk. An inner door leads into a large open-plan living space which takes up the entire ground floor. You'll immediately be struck by how light and bright the room is - being south facing it enjoys sunshine throughout the day and the large window has a great view out over trees towards Hebden Bridge. But the main feature in here is the stunning Yorkshire stone fireplace, which could easily house a woodburning stove which after a long day simply light the stove, put your feet up and relax with a box set and hard-earned drink. What could be better?

To the rear of the room is the modern kitchen. There's plenty of space to cook as a family, with a built in gas hob and double electric oven, plus room for a fridge, freezer and dishwasher. Alongside there's space for the dining table, making this a very practical and social layout, whether you're keeping an eye on the kids while you cook, or having friends over for food.

Moving upstairs, there's two bedrooms and the family bathroom on the first floor, all very well presented. Bedroom two is a good-sized double, with bespoke built in wardrobe and shelving to either side of the chimney breast. Vibrantly decorated, it's a very light and welcoming room, enjoying superb views. Next door, bedroom three is also a double, this time to the rear of the house and overlooking the garden. A sound-insulated cupboard houses a new combination boiler, supplying heating and hot water to the house. Finally on this floor the family bathroom is very tranquil, bathed in light and with original floorboards underfoot. Tastefully decorated in pale blue, there's a large twin-ended bath with shower over, offering the choice of an invigorating shower or, when you have more time, a relaxing soak.

Finally, on the top floor there's an excellent master bedroom with ensuite shower room, plus a useful study room, each brightly lit thanks to three large roof windows. The door from the stairs opens into the main bedroom, which has exposed purlins adding character and excellent headroom. This is a large double room, with plenty of space for the bed and creative bespoke joinery. Just off this room is a good-sized ensuite shower room which also has space for the washing machine and tumble dryer. Finally, a door opens from the bedroom into a cosy office space with fitted shelving tucked under the eaves. This an ideal escape for finding peace and quiet when working from home, or how about creating a large walk-in wardrobe?

But now back to the wonderful outside space, which is so hard to find in such a central location. To the front of the house, raised above Heptonstall Road there's a small terrace directly outside the front door. With space for a few pots plus a table and chairs it's a real suntrap, and the ideal spot for a morning cuppa. Meanwhile the back garden is truly idyllic, with woodland to the rear and enjoying stunning views and sunshine for most of the day. Divided into three main terraces linked by a wandering path it has a magical, hidden-away feel. There are zones laid out for eating al-fresco, enjoying a sun-down beer or simply relaxing in the sunshine, each with high levels of privacy thanks to thoughtful planting. If growing your own veg appeals there are raised beds too. Right in the middle is a large workshop with power, perfect for raising young plants or for use as a hobby room. Alternatively this would make a great spot for a summerhouse or garden office.

A few further basics: There's plenty of on-street parking close to the house. All windows are UPVC double-glazed and heating and hot water is provided by a gas combination boiler. In addition to the garden workshop there are two very useful stone sheds under the front terrace, one used for storing the bins and the other as secure bicycle storage.

So, to summarise, this is a lovely, good-sized home with a flexible layout. Suitable for a couple or family, it has a wonderful location on the edge of Hebden Bridge within a stone's throw of town and wonderful countryside. With stunning views from every room this isn't a property to miss. So call now, 24/7,
