Mount Road, Marsden, Huddersfield, HD7

Originally purchased as a derelict barn, this detached home has been largely reconstructed to create an impressive family residence. It stands back from the main road, featuring an electric gated entrance that leads to a sweeping driveway with ample parking space and a detached double garage. The property's well-established gardens are adorned with mature trees and shrubs, offering considerable privacy. Nestled just half a mile outside the village and bordering the stunning Peak District National Park, this unique property provides easy access to outdoor activities at nearby Butterley Reservoir and Wessenden Moor. The original barn conversion took place in the 1990s, showcasing distinct architectural features such as original barn arches, exposed stonework in the reception hall, and visible roof timbers on the second floor. The interior layout includes a generously sized reception/dining hall that flows into a galleried landing above, alongside a sitting room, dining room, kitchen, three spacious double bedrooms (one with an en suite), and a family shower room. An additional staircase leads to a versatile second floor featuring three interconnected areas that could serve multiple purposes—ideal for home offices or hobby spaces—pending planning permissions for any conversions. While the property is well maintained, it would greatly benefit from modern updates to reflect contemporary tastes and preferences. This presents an exciting opportunity for investors or homeowners looking to personalize their living space while enhancing its value.
