Description
Edelweiss – A Swiss-Inspired Woodland Retreat in the Heart of Hebden Bridge
Welcome to Edelweiss, a striking and utterly unique Swiss chalet-style residence, tucked into the leafy hillside of what locals fondly call Little Switzerland. Whether you're an adventurous family who love to entertain, or busy professionals seeking calm and character in an inspiring setting, Edelweiss offers an extraordinary blend of space, style and storybook charm.
From the moment you step onto the terraced gardens that wrap the house like a secret woodland path, you know you're somewhere special. Think sweeping views across the valley, birdsong at dawn, and sunset drinks from the tree-canopy-level balcony. And yes, you're still within a short and scenic stroll of the vibrant town centre of Hebden Bridge – with its indie cinema, artisan coffee, excellent schools and direct rail connections to both Leeds and Manchester.
Step inside, and it's a home that immediately makes you feel welcome. Access is most often through the side, where a vast sun terrace opens via bi-fold doors into a breathtaking open-plan living space. Light floods in from two sets of full-height glass doors. A graceful curved staircase sweeps upwards – it's dramatic, but also homely. This is the real heart of the house: spacious enough for family feasts, dinner parties, or just quiet coffee mornings in a patch of sun.
The adjoining kitchen is designed to serve both form and function, with plenty of space to cook, chat, and connect. It opens directly from the dining area and has an adjoining pantry and separate utility room – making family life a breeze and giving everything its place.
Beyond the open plan living space is the main lounge – full of rustic alpine charm with its pine-clad ceiling and a quirky corner fireplace that creates a wonderful homely scene in winter. Big windows flood the room with light and provide endless views of the hills, forests, and skies.
Edelweiss is as versatile as it is beautiful. The fourth bedroom on this level could easily become a self-contained studio or office suite – especially with its proximity to the utility and bathroom areas. Perfect for multigenerational living, home working, or creative retreat.
Upstairs, the main bedroom is nothing short of a sanctuary. A fully glazed door opens onto the upper balcony – a magical place to begin or end your day, perched above the tree line – step out and breathe in - its breath taking. A generous ensuite and walk-in dressing room (currently an office) complete the suite. Two further double bedrooms each have their own character and charm, one featuring a private dressing room and balcony access, the other delightfully reconfigured to create an expansive, light-filled space.
And then there's the bathroom – with a deep double-ended bath, bidet, corner shower and enough room to lie back, relax, and forget the world.
The landing area with pleasing curved wall wraps around to the front of the house where there is the hallway entrance and a door leading out to the front pathway.
But the surprises don't stop there. Head downstairs once more and you'll discover “The Cave” – a multi-use space currently a games room, but with the bones to become a cinema, bar, gym or studio. It has its own entrance via a timber staircase at the rear of the house and more than a little personality.
Outside, the layered gardens feel like an adventure waiting to happen. Sun terraces, stone steps, decked seating areas and colour-rich planting make this a space to explore, relax, and play – whether you're gardening, barbecuing, or birdwatching with a glass of wine. There's ample parking on the upper level and a double garage (flying freehold ask for details) for storage, bikes, or that dream workshop you've been planning.
On to practical matters - the property has a vented hot air heating system together with underfloor heating in the open plan living space (the boiler is a youthful 5 years old), the windows are triple glazed. The flooring is engineered hardwood and the doors throughout are solid wood. Edelweiss is more than a house, it's the thrill of something different. Whether you're looking for a bold family nest, a creative base, or a retreat from the rush – this is a home that gives you the space to enjoy.
Intrigued? You should be. But only a visit can truly capture the spirit of Edelweiss. And once you're here, you might never want to leave.
