Some Homes Have A Story, This Has Seven Centuries Of Them. Grade II listed and thought to be the oldest house in Calderdale, it's been beautifully updated for modern family life. And on a clear day, the views from the south-facing garden will stop you in your tracks.

Just stop and think about what has happened within these walls since 1290. The families, the winters, the conversations, the meals. Seven centuries of stories - and the current owners have just written one of the most compelling chapters yet.

Thought to date from around 1290, Old Sunnybank Hall is believed to be the oldest house in Calderdale. Grade II listed, it's been updated beautifully - the ancient timber frames, flagstone floors and three fireplaces are all still here, sitting comfortably alongside a proper modern kitchen, four double bedrooms and bathrooms that feel thoroughly up-to-date.

The dining room sets the tone on the ground floor. Stone flagged floors, exposed beams and a fireplace with a wood-burning stove - it's the kind of room that earns its place on a dark November evening. 

The sitting room has a lovely open fire and this room leads through to a snug with a third fireplace, with a stove and a cute little window seat. 

There are more beams in the kitchen but other than them, it’s bang up to date - with  a central island, quartz surfaces, oak flooring and pendant lighting. 

A door from the dining room leads out to a paved courtyard at the back, and a utility room and cloakroom keep the day-to-day running of family life quietly out of the way.

Upstairs, the landing is a room in its own right - wide, light and framed by exposed ancient timber trusses that put the age of this place into sharp focus. 

Four double bedrooms lead off from here. The main bedroom has a large ensuite with a walk in shower enclosure. There is also an equally spacious four piece house bathroom and an en suite bathroom to bedroom 4. 

Outside, the south-facing tiered front garden is where this property really opens up. 

There's a lawn, a large stone patio and those views - out across the rooftops and over open Calderdale countryside. 

Vehicle access works from both front and back: the formal driveway is off Sunnybank Lane where there is a drive/parking area and steps leading up to the front gardens. To the rear, there is a detached double garage and further hard standing area for parking. There is also a paved rear garden.

The location earns its place too. Both Greetland Academy school sites are only a 5 minute walk away

West Vale is a short stroll down the hill - with a Co-op, Tesco Express, restaurants and bars, all within easy reach without needing the car. And for further afield, Halifax and Huddersfield together with the M62 access are all within several miles.

Homes like this - with seven centuries of history, a beautiful modern finish and views across the valley - come along once in a generation. 

Directions:

From Saddleworth Road turn up Sunnybank Drive. Turn almost immediately left up Sunnybank Lane. Follow this up and round the corner and the driveway for the property is after the corner on the left hand side.
