Agent Reference TS0571 Fancy A Canal View With Your Morning Coffee?
When you can have breakfast by the water and email from your landing workspace with the same view, most other modern estates start to feel a bit ordinary.
A flexible family home with Sowerby Bridge's shops and schools just a short towpath walk away. Barge Avenue is certainly named well.
A far cry from the usual copy and paste modern developments, it's tucked between the canal and the river.
From the kitchen diner to the top-floor suite, there's barely a spot that doesn't look out over the canal or the Calder.
The kitchen-diner is modern, fully integrated and well proportioned, with space for everyone to gather and those canal views right there while you cook, eat or just linger over coffee.
The sitting room has a recently installed media wall with a stylish inset electric fire, plus French doors onto the low maintenance garden.
There are two bedrooms on the first floor, the biggest is a spacious double looking out towards Norland Moor.
The family bathroom is neutral throughout with a bath and overhead shower, and the smallest bedroom has its own Juliet balcony, a nice little spot to catch the narrowboats going by.
You might use the small bedroom as a home office but the landing is big enough for a proper desk too.
The top floor master suite has full-height fitted wardrobes and its own en-suite shower room, set well apart from the rest of the house, with a loft and pull-down ladder for extra storage.
Outside, there's a small terrace by the towpath on one side and a garden with an artificial lawn and patio on the other, gated for security and parking.
There's room for several vehicles and an EV charging point already fitted, so that's one job ticked off before you've even moved in.
There are also plenty of green spaces and a play park within this development, making it a great child friendly location - you can even see the park from some of the windows so the kids can go out and play whilst you get the chores done!
Sowerby Bridge itself is a five minute drive, or you can walk it along the canal if you fancy a scenic stroll.
Copley village is a short walk too, and Halifax is about 15 minutes by car for anything further afield.
If you want a modern family home with genuine character, peaceful waterside views, and a location that still puts you close to everything you need, this one's well worth a look.
This isn't another cookie-cutter new-build on a tightly packed estate road - it's got a lovely canalside setting and a lifestyle most modern developments simply can't offer.
I’m expecting plenty of interest, so get in touch to arrange a viewing.
