Description

In its elevated position on this hilly landscape with sweeping panoramic views over the fields and beyond to Headley Golf Course, Thornton viaduct and up towards the Mountain is what first stole the sellers heart. This Grade II listed cottage is full of history, charm and soul, only 5 minutes drive from Thornton, Ogden, Queensbury and a central point between Halifax, Keighley and Bradford and of course is situated in the birthplace of the Brontë sisters. If you’ve ever dreamed of waking up to greenery, beautiful sunrises and sunsets, watching the seasons change, and being surrounded by a beautiful landscape both front, rear and side then this could well be the cottage for you. From the comfort of the lounge, complete with multi fuel stove you can sit and watch the valley transform from frosty winter mornings, spring’s first buds, long golden summer days, and the burnished colours of autumn, with its south facing front aspect.
