Alden Road, Helmshore

Tucked quietly within an exclusive collection of just three executive homes, Number 3 Holcombe Chase offers an exceptional blend of space, style and countryside calm, all wrapped within one of Helmshore’s most desirable settings. Thoughtfully enhanced and beautifully maintained, this is a home that feels settled, sophisticated and ready to be lived in from the very first moment.

Set behind a smart block paved driveway with parking for three vehicles, the approach immediately sets the tone. The handsome façade and clean architectural lines create a striking first impression.

Step inside and a welcoming entrance hallway unfolds ahead, finished with lightly toned herringbone Karndean flooring flowing seamlessly through to the kitchen, dining and family space. Natural light spills gently through the home, while underfloor heating brings a constant sense of warmth and comfort.

To the front, the lounge offers a peaceful retreat away from the main living spaces. Soft natural light filters gently through the mullion-style windows, illuminating the beautifully calm interior palette and enhancing the sense of space throughout. Generously proportioned and effortlessly versatile, there is ample room for large sofas and relaxed family gatherings, whilst the plush carpeting underfoot and serene styling create an inviting setting equally suited to cosy evenings in or entertaining guests.

Across the hallway, internal access leads directly into the integral garage, fitted with an electric up-and-over door and offering excellent storage alongside practical everyday convenience.

A beautifully finished downstairs WC sits centrally within the home, complete with stylish tiling, vanity unit basin, heated towel radiator and refined gold accents adding a subtle touch of luxury.

To the rear, the home opens magnificently into a breathtaking kitchen, dining and family space; a room designed entirely around modern living. Bright, sociable and effortlessly functional, this expansive open-plan space forms the true heart of the home.

Centred beneath statement pendant lighting, the large quartz-topped island incorporates an induction hob with downdraft extractor alongside seating and additional storage. Sleek handleless cabinetry provides a clean contemporary finish, whilst premium integrated appliances include Neff Slide & Hide ovens, warming drawer, wine fridge, dishwasher, larder fridge, freezer and Quooker boiling water tap.

Positioned alongside the island, the striking dining area creates a natural continuation of the open-plan space, comfortably accommodating both everyday family life and larger gatherings with ease. Statement pendant lighting hangs elegantly above, while the thoughtful layout allows conversation and connection to flow effortlessly between the kitchen, dining and living areas. Two sets of bifolding doors open directly onto the garden terrace, beautifully blending indoor and outdoor living throughout the warmer months.

Beyond the kitchen, the utility room continues the same high standard of finish, with additional quartz worktops, sink, laundry space and external access to the side of the property.

Upstairs, the sense of space continues across five beautifully proportioned bedrooms arranged over two floors.

The first floor hosts four generous double bedrooms, each finished in soft neutral tones with plush carpeting underfoot. Two benefit from stylish en-suite shower rooms, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a luxurious family bathroom complete with P-shaped bath, drench shower, vanity basin, LED mirror and contemporary fittings. Elevated views towards surrounding greenery and distant hills add a peaceful backdrop throughout.

Occupying the entire top floor, the principal suite feels wonderfully private and indulgent, almost boutique in feel. Vaulted ceilings and Velux windows flood the space with natural light, whilst French doors opening to a Juliet balcony frame far-reaching views across the garden and surrounding countryside.

A bespoke dressing room offers extensive fitted storage finished with elegant detailing, while the en-suite bathroom delivers true spa-like luxury. Twin vanity basins, walk-in shower, freestanding bath and ambient mood lighting combine to create a beautifully calming space to begin and end each day.

Outside, the rear garden has been thoughtfully designed to balance entertaining with relaxed family living. A substantial porcelain terrace stretches across the rear of the home, creating an ideal setting for summer dining, morning coffee or evenings spent with friends as the bi-folding doors draw the inside and outside spaces together effortlessly. Beyond, the lawned garden offers space for children and pets to enjoy, framed by attractive stone walling and flourishing greenery which enhance the peaceful atmosphere. Fully enclosed and wonderfully private, the garden enjoys a tucked-away feel whilst sitting just moments from the nearby bridleway and surrounding countryside walks that make this location so special.

The property also benefits from the remainder of its 10-year structural warranty, providing valuable peace of mind for years to come.
