Description

Property Reference number : 150769

A beautifully presented detached residence of approximately 1,500 sq ft, this home has undergone a comprehensive back to brick renovation, including a full rewire, replumb, and significant structural expansion. The result is a modern, high quality family home finished with careful attention to detail throughout. Positioned in the prestigious “Gates” area of Birstall, the property offers contemporary comfort within a peaceful and desirable residential setting.

Ground Floor
The property is entered via a feature anthracite front door with frosted glazing, opening into an extended hallway with additional side window. To the left, double jet black Liberty glass doors lead into the front living room, a bright and welcoming space with views to the front aspect.
A matching Liberty door provides access to the kitchen, and a wide opening from the living room creates a modern flowing layout into the open plan kitchen, dining, and living area. This impressive space is filled with natural light from two glass skylights and 4m three pane folding doors opening onto the rear garden.
The kitchen features luxury quartz worktops, a central island with Bora downdraft induction hob and storage, and high end integrated appliances including a Haier fridge-freezer, Bertazzoni dishwasher, steam oven, and undermount sink. A wireless thermostat complements the home’s modern upgrades.

A rear hallway offers garden access and leads to a section ideal for use as an annexe, comprising:

Bedroom 3: A spacious double room with a large side window overlooking the garden—suitable for relatives, guests, or use as a study/dressing/snug area.
Downstairs Bathroom: Newly fitted three piece suite with shower.
Spice Kitchen: A practical galley kitchen with skylight, gas hob, extractor, sink, space for a washer dryer stack, and under counter fridge, plus a side door providing independent access to the front.

First Floor
