A DETACHED HOME OF DISTINCTION WITH EXTENSIVE VIEWS AND SOUTH FACING - RIDDLESDEN
Stone built circa 1900 and with some unique and attractive features in an elevated setting, this four bedroomed home will whet the appetite of those looking for something special. Two spacious reception rooms are matched by the large and comprehensively fitted dining kitchen. The main hall is oak panelled using reclaimed panelling. The three main bedrooms are well proportioned, two being unusually large, whilst the fourth is an interestingly shaped single. Features include uniqure timber paneling and fine stained glass windows that orginally came from Strong Close House. The vendors have advised that the property was constructed around the time that Cliffe Castle was built and that, at that time, it was speculated to be the most expensive house built in Keighley. The gardens provide an attractive frame for the house and the garage will take two cars, with careful manoeuvring. We think that this is a really lovely home with true character.
