Agent Reference TS0571 The Hunting Lodge Home That Looks Like One Thing And Lives Like Another.

Behind the modest Georgian courtyard front there’s over 2,800 square feet of genuine period character, a bespoke oak kitchen and space to work, host or simply let everyone spread out.

You'd never guess it from the cobbles outside…but when you step through the front door, the house just keeps unfolding, room after room, floor after floor, in a way that genuinely catches people out.

This Grade II listed lodge dates back to around 1750, and it wears that history well - with beamed ceilings, stone mullioned windows and period fireplaces run right through the ground floor.

The breakfast kitchen has been updated properly, with solid Pippy oak cabinetry, granite worktops and a run of neff appliances, plus underfloor heating that continues through into the dining area.

From there a pantry, a large living room with its own gas fire, and a second reception room with an open fire and doors out to the rear patio all lead off one another, so there's genuinely somewhere for everyone, whatever the occasion.

If you’re a family of entertainers there's also a proper bar with original stone shelving tucked just off the inner lobby. Serious fun.

Upstairs, the main bedroom suite is a large double room with far-reaching views across the Ryburn Valley to Wainhouse Tower, its own walk-in wardrobe, dressing room and en suite.

From the dressing room a spiral staircase drops down to a ground floor study with its own external door - genuinely useful if working from home is part of the plan, since it's entirely separate from the rest of the house.

A second bedroom and family bathroom complete this floor.

Head up again and you'll find two further large bedrooms, one of which would make a proper teenage retreat, plus plenty of potential in the loft - with high head height and exposed roof timbers that's ready for whoever wants to take it further.

Outside, there's parking on the cobbled courtyard at the front, and a private, low-maintenance stone flagged patio at the back with a gate through to Butterworth Lane - somewhere quiet to sit out with a coffee.

The village sits between Ripponden and Sowerby Bridge, close to well regarded local schools and with easy access to the M62 for anyone commuting.

If you want a home with genuine period character and a surprising amount of space - enough for everyone to actually spread out in, this one is well worth a look.

I’m expecting plenty of interest, so get in touch to arrange a viewing.
