Description

DESCRIPTION

Offered to the market with NO VENDOR CHAIN, this historical stone-built detached Grade II listed country home enjoys an idyllic setting, its generous lawned gardens extending to a stream that provides a haven for wildlife.  Unquestionably one of the finest properties we have ever had the privilege of offering to the market, The Farmhouse was the subject of an outstanding scheme of renovation and re-appointment, completed approximately eight years ago with the exceptional standard of craftsmanship, use of high-end materials and fittings and attention to detail being evident throughout.     Modern touches have been blended sympathetically with the property's almost 200 year old original period features to balance traditional charm with the comforts of 21st century living.  Noteworthy features include extensive oak flooring complemented by Cathedral stone flooring in the Hallway and Utility Room, period double-glazed windows with high quality internal wooden shutters, whilst the beautiful Breakfast Kitchen is complemented by an adjoining and very well- proportioned Dining Room.  On the first floor, each of the three spacious Double Bedrooms have impressive En-suites and planning permission has been obtained for the creation of a further bedroom, living area, dressing room and bathroom in the very generous attic space.  Properties of such quality are rarely offered to the market and we strongly recommend a viewing for this lovely home's many features to be fully appreciated.

About Butcher Residential Ltd, Denby Dale

361 Wakefield Road, Denby Dale, Huddersfield, HD8 8RP

Welcome to Butcher Residential

Butcher Residential is a well-established, family-owned independent estate agency, with offices in Penistone and Denby Dale. We specialise in residential and commercial sales, lettings and property management, land sales, and new homes. We sell and let properties throughout South Yorkshire and the Kirklees area.Values

We really believe in offering valuable, relevant guidance, enabling our clients to achieve their aims as best we can. Whether that's driven by price, timescale or other factors. Good, fair and well-implemented advice is the most important aspect of what we do.Experience

To tell you a little about our background, Ian Butcher has worked in the property industry since 1985. He worked for some of the leading names in the business before launching Butcher Residential Estate Agents with his wife Anne in 2009. After his previous partnership was closed down on result of the recession, he realised that he needed the freedom to make his own choices, and in doing so, protect the number of local employees who had worked for/with him for many years.The Team

We are now a tight-knit team of six, all taking a lot of pride in what we do. Ian, Anne and Anne's daughter, Holly have now worked for the business for a decade, alongside our sales manager Mel Peel, an experienced negotiator having worked for other local estate agents since the early 1990's before coming to us in 2019. Jo and Ben in the Penistone office look after our lettings department. Jo has worked with us for around 14 years now, with so much care and attention always being given to our valued clients. Ben started his journey in the industry with us in 2017 as an apprentice. Ian's secretary and PA Jennifer joined us for all of two days in March 2020 before the dreaded "C" word (no not that one, Covid!) shut the country down. If you'd like to know a little more about us, head over to our "Meet the Team" page!
