Description
Welcome to this charming three-bedroom end-of-terrace cottage located on James Street in the picturesque village of Golcar. Elevated high above the Colne Valley, this home offers beautiful countryside views combined with authentic Yorkshire stone charm. What truly sets this property apart is its unbelievable outdoor footprint—boasting an exceptionally large plot with a tiered garden, a substantial detached double garage with vehicle access, and vast potential for an independent building plot subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions. Whether you are looking for a spacious family home with a huge garden or an exciting development opportunity, this property delivers on every front.
Stepping through the composite front door into the entrance hallway, you are welcomed by a clean, light space with room for coats and shoes before stepping through into the living accommodation. The principal reception room is impressive in scale, featuring exposed timber ceiling beams, a feature stone fireplace with green tiling, and wide cottage-style mullion windows that let in plenty of natural light. Tucked off the main living space is a useful bonus room—ideal as a dedicated home office, children's playroom, or quiet reading nook. Towards the rear, the open-plan dining kitchen forms a fantastic social hub. It features character ceiling beams, fitted kitchen units with tiled splashbacks, a gas cooker, space for an American-style fridge freezer, plumbing for a washing machine, and space for a large dining table—complete with direct access out to the rear stone patio.
Heading up the stairs to the first-floor landing, you will discover three comfortable bedrooms and the family bathroom. The primary bedroom sits to the front, offering a spacious double room with ample space for wardrobes. The second bedroom is another well-proportioned room overlooking the rear grounds, framed by countryside views. The third bedroom works perfectly as a single room, nursery, or dedicated dressing room. Serving the accommodation is a generous four-piece family bathroom equipped with a panelled bathtub, a separate corner shower enclosure, pedestal wash hand basin, WC, and a heated towel rail.
The Great Outdoors & Plot Potential
Outside is where this home truly comes into its own. The property sits on a remarkably substantial plot that extends far beyond a typical cottage garden. The grounds feature a multi-tiered layout with paved patio areas immediately off the house, artificial lawned seating terraces, a greenhouse area, and a large upper lawn ideal for children to play. At the far end of the plot sits a large stone-built detached double garage with dual up-and-over doors and paved off-road parking. Thanks to the sheer size of the grounds, direct vehicular access, and street frontages, the site offers exciting potential to explore a standalone residential building plot, subject to securing the relevant planning consents.
In Summary
This end cottage on James Street is a rare gem in today's market. Offering characterful living spaces indoors, an exceptionally rare plot size outdoors, double garaging, and genuine future development scope, it is a brilliant opportunity for buyers wanting space, scenic surroundings, and long-term potential.
