An outstanding period family home filled with charm, space and character features throughout.

This impressive property offers over 2,000 sq. ft. of accommodation arranged over four floors, perfectly balancing elegance and everyday comfort. From the moment you step through the solid timber door into the hallway, the home’s period craftsmanship is immediately apparent — with high ceilings, ornate cornicing, deep skirting boards and a magnificent staircase that winds gracefully through the house.

The front sitting room enjoys a large bay window fitted with sash glazing, flooding the space with light. A stone fireplace with open fire forms a stunning focal point, complemented by exposed floorboards and decorative ceiling rose — a room that feels both refined and welcoming. Beyond, the formal dining room continues the theme of character and quality, with a feature multi-fuel stove set upon a stone hearth, built-in glazed display cabinets and views across the garden — ideal for family meals or entertaining guests.

The kitchen, positioned at the rear of the home, blends traditional style with practicality. Fitted with a range of painted units topped with quartz surfaces, an inset Belfast sink and a classic gas Aga framed by tiled surrounds, it’s a space that feels warm and timeless. French doors open directly to the garden, creating a natural flow for summer dining or watching children play outdoors.

To the lower ground floor, a spacious and versatile room offers excellent flexibility — currently used as a home gym, but equally suited to a home office, cinema room or hobby space. It benefits from French doors leading to the garden and exposed stone detailing that ties beautifully to the home’s character. There is also a useful laundry room with space and plumbing for appliances, a modern boiler system, and additional storage.

The first floor presents three well-proportioned bedrooms, each finished with the same attention to detail. Two feature cast-iron stoves with stone hearths, fitted wardrobes and sash windows, while the third offers the perfect spot for a nursery or home study. The house bathroom is particularly impressive — generous in size and luxuriously appointed with a freestanding roll-top bath, walk-in shower, twin countertop basins set upon a vanity unit and period-style fittings, all framed by exposed beams and natural light from both sash and Velux windows.

The top floor is a stunning, generous room with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, brickwork, and Velux windows drawing in natural light. The en-suite is equally stylish, featuring a double walk-in shower, reclaimed timber vanity with circular basin, and quality fittings throughout.

Outside, the property continues to impress with low maintenance, enclosed gardens framed by stone walling and planted beds. A stone-paved terrace provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining and entertaining. Beyond the garden is a detached garage with additional off street parking. This is leased from Dartmouth estate with an annual cost of around £180.

Located just outside Slaithwaite village centre, the property is perfectly placed within walking distance of the vibrant village shops, eateries and creative spaces that the village has to offer. The train station will appeal to those who commute and families will appreciate the well regarded local schools.
