Prospect Road, Eldwick, Bingley, BD16 3EP

Offered to the open market for the first time since 1946, Prospect Cottage represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly elegant and substantial stone-built Victorian home, positioned on one of Eldwick’s most desirable private roads.

This distinguished semi-detached property has been carefully maintained over the years, retaining a wealth of original architectural detail while incorporating tasteful modern enhancements that respect the building’s heritage. Set within a particularly generous and beautifully landscaped plot, the property offers both a remarkable degree of privacy and excellent potential for further extension, subject to the necessary consents.

On arrival, the presence of the home is immediately felt. A grand Victorian entrance, featuring period floor tiles and a stained-glass front door, sets the tone for what lies within. Internally, the ground floor accommodation flows well and offers a sense of scale and proportion typical of the period. The formal lounge is a welcoming, refined space, with original cornicing and a wood-burning stove creating a natural focal point. Secondary, there is a large dining room, ideal for family gatherings or entertaining guests.

The kitchen has been updated with care and quality in mind. Fitted with a range of bespoke cabinetry, quartz worktops and integrated appliances, providing all the functionality expected of a modern home. A useful under-stairs store and a rear composite door leading to the garden complete the ground floor accommodation.

To the first floor, a generously sized landing is naturally lit by an impressive arched stained-glass window, a striking feature that adds character and interest to the space. From here, three double bedrooms are accessed, each offering excellent proportions and pleasant outlooks over the gardens. The family bathroom is styled in keeping with the character of the house and features a roll-top bath with shower over, complemented by traditional fixtures and fittings.

Externally, the property continues to impress. A private driveway wraps around the front and side of the house, providing ample off-road parking. At the entrance, stone pillars house electric points which could accommodate the future installation of electric gates if desired. The front garden is enclosed by a stone wall and thoughtfully landscaped, with raised beds, mature shrubs, specimen trees and lawn. To the side is a neat stone bin store and an extension of the driveway, which leads through to a private rear patio area, further planting, and additional parking.

To the rear, three well-proportioned outbuildings offer further flexibility, a garden room with light and power, a stone-built shed/store, and a double garage.
