High Spring Gardens Lane, Keighley, BD20 6JX

High Lodge is a beautifully preserved ‘stone-built’ Georgian home, nestled within the historic setting of High Spring Gardens Lane in Keighley. This distinctive four-bedroom semi-detached property dates back to the late 1800's and once formed part of a grand country estate built by one of Keighley’s notable mill owners.

Every inch of the home exudes period character – from exposed timber beams and wooden panelling to original fireplaces with welcoming gas-fired stoves. Traditional features are tastefully paired with modern touches to create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Oak and slate floors span the ground floor, complemented by impressive wooden doors and original built-in cupboards that hint at the property’s rich past.

At the heart of the home is the kitchen-diner, balancing style and functionality. It includes a classic range cooker, integrated dishwasher, contemporary cabinetry, and a double porcelain sink – all set against a backdrop of timeless features.

Outside, the home continues to impress. Large wooden gates lead to a private cobbled courtyard with parking for one vehicle. Further along is a detached double garage with space for three more. At the rear, a generous lawned garden offers a lovely setting for entertaining, family gatherings, or a quiet morning coffee.

Ideally situated 1.2 miles from Keighley train station, with regular trains to Leeds taking around 25 minutes, the property is perfect for commuters. The town centre is close – less than half a mile away – with shops, cafés, and daily essentials. Nearby green spaces like Devonshire Park and Cliffe Castle Park offer family-friendly leisure, while picturesque spots like Bolton Abbey, historic Haworth, and the vibrant towns of Ilkley, Skipton and Saltaire are a short drive away.

High Lodge is more than a home – it’s a rare chance to own a slice of Yorkshire’s heritage, full of warmth, soul, and character.
