This Grade II listed estate, nestled in the picturesque Calder Valley near Heptonstall, features a remarkable array of historic properties, presenting an unparalleled investment opportunity. The centerpiece is a substantial stone-built house that has been creatively adapted to house three self-contained apartments, alongside a principal residence and two semi-detached cottages within the grounds. The estate also includes the charming Coachman’s Cottage and a sizeable detached barn, both of which offer significant potential for further development or conversion (subject to obtaining relevant consents).
The main residence showcases distinctive architectural elements throughout its spacious rooms, including an inviting hallway leading to elegant reception areas adorned with exposed beams and ornate plasterwork. Noteworthy is the 'Oak Room', featuring rich oak panelling and built-in bookshelves.
With four generous bedrooms and various communal living spaces complemented by an AGA kitchen, this home combines historic charm with modern functionality.
The estate's three apartments are currently tenanted, providing a steady income stream for potential buyers. Additionally, the refurbished No. 5 Stones Hey Gate Cottage successfully marries period character with contemporary style, while Little Stones Hey Gate Cottage stands ready for comprehensive renovation—having secured planning consent for reinstating stone mullion windows with double glazing.
The extensive barn offers abundant storage space now but comes with exciting possibilities for conversion into residential units or other uses pending planning approval.
Set against the backdrop of stunning landscapes and encompassed by excellent outdoor activities in Hardcastle Crags, this estate not only provides exceptional living opportunities but also flexibility for multi-generational living or rental investments. With its wealth of character and numerous properties on site, Stones Hey Gate Estate is an extraordinary project ready to be shaped by its new owner into a modern living experience.
