Description

This well-maintained 5-bedroom detached house, located in the desirable Royds area, presents a unique opportunity for both comfortable living and future renovations. The property features spacious and flexible interiors, complemented by an impressively sized rear garden that offers potential for further development with appropriate planning permissions. On the ground floor, you will find two generously sized bedrooms; one currently serves as a study—ideal for those who work from home—while the other is set up as a guest room. The front of the house showcases a bright dining and reception area adorned with a classic bay window, creating a welcoming environment. At the back, the expansive living room extends seamlessly into the garden, featuring an authentic 1930s Clay-Gate fireplace that adds character to everyday family life and gatherings. The second floor accommodates three additional well-proportioned bedrooms. The master suite stands out with its ensuite shower room and access to a private balcony that basks in sunlight throughout the day—an excellent retreat for relaxation. The remaining two bedrooms are also spacious, making this home particularly suitable for families. Outside, you’ll discover a large driveway along with a good-sized garage, which could be repurposed to expand living space or create an open-plan kitchen (subject to planning permission). The south-facing rear garden is beautifully maintained, providing ample space for outdoor activities or potential landscaping projects. The location enhances this property's appeal significantly. It is conveniently situated near reputable schools and within walking distance of the town center. Excellent transport links—including direct trains to London—make it an attractive choice for commuters. Additionally, the surrounding area boasts a variety of restaurants, cafés, and independent shops, enriching community life while offering excellent investment potential.
