Cresswell Terrace, Halifax

Welcome to this 1897 stunning, double-fronted, stone built terraced house located in the very popular village of Lightcliffe. The current owners of this charming family home have lived here for 55 years and maintained the original layout of the large, high ceilinged rooms. The property benefits both inside and out from features contemporary with the original construction, including covings, ceiling mouldings and decorative plasterwork to the interior and outhouses, garage and greenhouse to the exterior. Unusually for this period of property, all internal doors are original panelled doors, most with original decorative backplates to the handles.

The house is very spacious having 3 living rooms plus a large dining kitchen, 3 double bedrooms, a further generous single bedroom, a family bathroom with w/c and an additional separate w/c. It has a large stone built single garage and large gardens.

The dining kitchen has been sensitively modernised and is equipped with all the essentials. The house has dual zone gas central heating and a Verisure security system. All the windows have been replaced with very high quality double glazed uPVC most of which are opening sash windows. In keeping with the period detailing, leaded glass designs have been retained within the double glazing, including a fully leaded feature window at the top of the stairs which floods the generous landing and stairs with light. There is a modern conservatory to the rear of the building where one can sit and enjoy a view of the well stocked rear garden. The outdoor area is a true highlight, featuring a front and 2 rear gardens. The rear garden adjacent to the property is part paved for sitting and enjoying the garden and contains 3 well constructed outhouses which are contemporary with the property.

There is also a large additional garden behind the stone built garage providing a greenhouse with both electrics and water and an additional large flexible garden space.

Living Room - A spacious front living room with a south-east facing bay window allowing lots of natural light and overlooking the front garden and golf course.
