4 Bed Detached House, Single Let, Huddersfield, HD8 0JG £800,000

Discover Comfort & Charm

Double doors open into the main lounge, a characterful room with original exposed beams and generous proportions. A gas fire sits centrally within a large feature fireplace, creating a strong focal point and making the space feel warm and inviting throughout the year. Original stone mullioned windows allow natural light to move easily through the room, balancing the traditional features with a bright and comfortable atmosphere. The French doors provide easy access to the patio and lawned gardens. This part of the house was one of the original cottages and once formed a main entrance, adding depth and history. It is a room well suited for entertaining or quieter evenings in front of the fire.

Beyond the lounge, the layout continues to offer flexibility. On the lower level is a guest bedroom fitted with built-in wardrobes and patio doors that open directly onto the courtyard and the rear garden. This room enjoys a pleasant outlook and a sense of separation from the main living areas, making it ideal for visitors or extended family. Opposite is a shower room, creating a practical arrangement for guest accommodation. There is also a third room that is currently being used as a home office but has the flexibility to be a fifth bedroom or hobby room.
This area could easily be used as a more self-contained space, offering excellent potential for an annexe if needed. The arrangement of rooms creates a degree of privacy and independence, while still feeling part of the main home.

Rest & Recharge

Climbing the stairs to the first floor, the landing opens out to a light and bright sitting area. This is a particularly appealing space, again featuring original exposed beams and large windows that extend into the roofline, which flood the room with light. French doors open to a balcony overlooking the rear garden. It is often used as an evening entertaining space, offering a more relaxed alternative to the main lounge.

Positioned just off the sitting area, bedroom two overlooks the garden and enjoys high ceilings, exposed original beams and a pleasant outlook. It is a well-proportioned room, offering plenty of space for bedroom furniture while retaining a sense of openness and light.

From the landing, bedroom three is also a generously sized room, with two large, stone mullioned windows, characteristic of the home's history, that draw in natural light throughout the day. The room's proportions and ceiling height give it flexibility, making it suitable as a double bedroom or guest room.

To the end of the hall, just off the staircase, the master bedroom is a particularly impressive space, generous in both scale and elegance. Windows on two walls draw in natural light throughout the day, creating a bright and airy atmosphere whilst offering uninterrupted views of the lawned gardens.
A dedicated walk-in wardrobe area provides practical and well-organised storage which keeps the main sleeping space uncluttered.
The en-suite is finished in a contemporary style with a walk-in wet room shower featuring distinctive textured tiling and built-in storage. A large Velux window draws in natural light while maintaining privacy, creating a space that feels open and well-balanced. Together, the bedroom, wardrobe and en-suite form a private sanctuary that feels spacious, light-filled and thoughtfully arranged.

Completing the space upstairs is the main family bathroom, well-sized and designed to serve the household comfortably. It includes a separate shower and bath, with natural light enhancing the space and creating a peaceful, practical room for everyday use.

Step Outside

The gardens are a defining feature of this home. At the rear, the garden is arranged over several levels. A lower courtyard sits close to the house and connects directly to the ground-floor bedroom. Steps lead up to the tiered patio, regularly used for summer dining, and onward to an upper balcony terrace with open views across the garden. Towards the far end, the garden tapers softly and incorporates a small, pump-fed stream, adding a gentle, ambient sound in the warmer months.
To the front, a south facing lawn stretches across the home, neatly maintained and bordered by mature trees that provide privacy and soften surrounding noise. A generous patio extends directly from the house, creating a natural link between inside and out. Outdoor lighting allows the space to be enjoyed into the evening, making it well-suited to entertaining.
To the right of the driveway sits a substantial detached double garage, fitted with an electric vehicle charging point. A workshop space to the rear of the garage adds further practicality.
Above the garage, accessed via internal stairs, is a spacious, light-filled room featuring three Velux windows and an additional window at the gable end. This space offers clear potential for conversion, whether as a home office, cinema room, gym, studio, or play room.
