Description

This spacious five-bedroom property, once servant quarters for a Georgian mansion constructed in the 1750s, presents a distinctive opportunity for renovation and investment. Nestled off a tranquil lane near the desirable village of Almondbury, this stone-built home is set against a backdrop of picturesque countryside and is conveniently close to local amenities, including boutique shops, cafes, reputable restaurants, and Woodsome Hall Golf Club. Easy access to motorway links further enhances its appeal for commuters traveling to Leeds or Manchester. The home's layout offers substantial living space with considerable potential for reconfiguration. The ground floor features a farmhouse-style kitchen with an inviting arched window, multiple reception areas—including a snug perfect for cozy winter evenings—and a formal dining room that opens into an enclosed courtyard garden. Additionally, there are versatile areas like a boot room and pantry adjacent to the kitchen and utility space. Currently configured with two lower-ground rooms serving as a gym and storage area, this section could be transformed into personal retreats or entertainment spaces like a cinema room. The first floor boasts five generously sized double bedrooms—two equipped with en-suites—and a well-appointed house bathroom. Beyond the main living quarters, the exterior of the property adds significant value with various outbuildings that offer flexibility for future use or conversion. The garages provide ample storage options; one has been utilized as additional studio space above and could function as an annexe or home office pending planning approvals. With electric wooden garage doors and an inspection pit in one garage, these features underscore the property’s versatility. Surrounded by well-established gardens and approached via a sweeping driveway—the front garden includes lawned areas dotted with mature trees—this property affords both seclusion and delightful views. The fully walled courtyard garden enhances privacy while offering an ideal setting for outdoor relaxation. In summary, this character-rich residence combines practical living spaces with promising investment potential in a highly sought-after location—a rare find indeed for those looking to create their dream family home or capitalize on future value through thoughtful renovations.
