Lingards Road, Slaithwaite, HD7

A truly exceptional five-bedroom detached Heritage home, occupying the largest garden plot within the Lingards Fold development.

Lingards Fold is set on the valley side, a 10-minute walk from Slaithwaite village centre, with views across the valley.

This development has been built by SB Homes - one of the area's most reputable builders, founded in 1997.

From the moment you arrive, it is clear this is no ordinary new-build home. Set behind its own private footbridge and stream, beautifully landscaped and framed with elegant estate railings, The Churchill makes a striking first impression.

Enter through the impressive feature aluminium front door into a stunning entrance hall, flooded with natural light from a large Velux roof window. The double-height ceiling and statement chandelier create a spectacular sense of arrival and set the tone for the quality found throughout the home.

The principal suite has been designed as a luxurious retreat, featuring a vaulted ceiling that enhances the feeling of space and light. The adjoining en-suite offers a spa-like experience, complete with a freestanding bath, spacious sit-in shower, twin illuminated mirrors and bespoke recessed niches. The suite also benefits from two double wardrobes and a dedicated dressing area, providing ample storage.

The third bedroom offers excellent flexibility and can either remain as a generous bedroom or be utilised as an impressive walk-in dressing room, depending on the buyer's requirements.

The main family bathroom is finished to an exceptional standard, featuring a large walk-in shower with a low-profile tray, wall-hung WC and illuminated mirror. The second bedroom is equally generous in size, with space for fitted wardrobes and beautiful views across the valley.

The upper floor provides two further bedrooms, a convenient WC and useful eaves storage above the staircase.

The lower ground floor is undoubtedly the heart of the home and delivers the true wow factor. A striking fire-rated glass feature allows natural light to cascade between floors, creating a bright and open living environment.

At the centre of this space is a handcrafted oak kitchen by Rider Custom Cabinets, designed by Studio Said. The specification and craftsmanship are second to none. A large quartz-topped island seamlessly incorporates a dining table, while the kitchen is equipped with an antique brass Quooker tap, integrated oven and combi microwave, wine fridge, mirrored splashback, bar area, pull-out waste bins and an abundance of storage for modern family living.

The beautifully appointed utility room mirrors the quality and finish of the kitchen, housing the boiler while providing space for a washing machine, tumble dryer and a dedicated pull-out ironing station. A separate WC is conveniently accessed from the utility room.

Designed to maximise the connection between indoor and outdoor living, the kitchen enjoys two sets of Crittall-style double doors, an aluminium external door with side panel and aluminium bi-fold doors opening directly onto the garden. The living room also benefits from its own aluminium external door.

The home is fully finished with premium flooring throughout, including luxurious Berber wool carpets to the bedrooms and upper floor, with elegant herringbone and plank LVT flooring to the hallway and kitchen/living spaces.

Externally, the property benefits from three parking spaces, including a private section of the shared carport with an 8kW electric vehicle charging point. Solar panels further enhance the home's energy efficiency.

The landscaped garden has been thoughtfully completed with Indian stone paving, fencing and turf, while foundations have already been installed beneath the patio to accommodate a potential future extension.

Currently serving as the development's show home, this outstanding property is available for occupation this summer.
