This unique and individual detached cottage occupies a pleasant elevated position with views over the centre of Holmfirth and beyond. It has been in the ownership of our client for over 50 years and prior to that was in the same family for a similar length of time. It was modernised and extended at the time but would now benefit from some further updating to the new owners’ tastes. The accommodation comprises: entrance porch, dining kitchen, sitting room, store, integral garage, 4 first floor bedrooms, dressing room, bathroom and an additional upstairs lounge with terrace enjoying the views. It has a gas central heating system and mostly uPVC double glazing. Externally there is a small garden and parking area to the front of the house and at the side is a pleasant garden area. Internal viewing is essential.
