Description
This attractive 2 bedroomed detached property occupies a superb semi-rural location up on the hillside above Slaithwaite and enjoys fantastic panoramic far-reaching views from its great vantage point. The property will benefit from some updating/minor remedial works, however, it offers scope to transform it into a wonderful home to your own particular specifications. We note that Planning Permission was granted back in 2011 (now lapsed) to create a double storey extension on the site of the former barn between the house and the stable block creating a huge living kitchen and an additional 2 bedrooms. We are unsure of its age, however, it does appear to have originally been built as 2 cottages with adjoining farm buildings suggesting it is likely 150/200 years old. It comes with a sweeping driveway, ample parking, garden areas to all sides, an outside kitchen area created on the site of the derelict barn, and one stone built former stable. You will find a good variety of shops, bars, restaurants, and train station down in the village. It is also only a short drive to junctions 23 & 24 of the M62 motorway.
