Holt Head Road, Slaithwaite, Huddersfield

MARTIN THORNTON PLATINUM

Enjoying a semi-rural setting on the edge of this sought after village, the property is located in a hamlet of other high quality homes. Holt Laithe Cottage has been recently upgraded and substantially extended from its original design, which has created a spacious and well-appointed five bedroom, four bathroom family home positioned on the edge of Slaithwaite and mid-way between Holmfirth and Marsden. Internally, the accommodation comprises entrance lobby, living/dining kitchen with bi-fold doors, utility, living room, sun lounge/orangery, inner hallway, three bedrooms (the Master with a separate dressing room and en suite) and family bathroom to the ground floor. To the first floor is a galleried landing and two double bedrooms both with en suite facilities. The property enjoys a gas central heating system, is predominantly uPVC double glazed and has an alarm and CCTV system. Externally, an electric gate gives access onto the driveway with parking for several vehicles and access to a stone built, detached garage with automatic door. A patio area adjoins the sun/garden room, along with lawned gardens and the lane to the side, with adjoining woodland bounded by the stream. Of particular note is the internal oak joinery including doors, exposed stonework, high ceilings and beams. Only by internal inspection can the position, presentation and high specification be truly appreciated.

From the driveway, a pathway leads through the lawned, level gardens down a short series of steps to the property’s entrance door. There is external water, lighting and CCTV. The pathway itself widens to an area that can be utilised as a pleasant seating/patio area and this is accessible from the sliding patio doors in the orangery.

The lane to the right-hand side is also owned by the property with two properties having access across it. Also in the property’s ownership is the woodland to the right-hand side of the lane, with the boundary being the steam. We are informed by the vendor that the paddock to the left of the property, owned by Dartmouth Estates, has been available to rent in the past.
