Property description

Must be viewed to be appreciated! A surprisingly spacious family home in a great location with amazing views. Large versatile downstairs living area with open plan kitchen diner. Fabulous tiered sunny garden with hidden pirate ship! Contemporary bathroom. Useful loft room. Driveway for 2 cars.

Located on a quiet cul de sac just off Kaye Lane at the top end of Almondbury, this lovely family home is a real delight. From the outside, it looks like a typical 1920's period property. However, inside it is most definitely a home for today. Thanks to the rear extension, there's a large versatile living space downstairs and a very striking large bathroom upstairs.

The main entrance is at the side and brings you into a central hallway. Straight ahead is the door into the middle room which is one of two versatile rooms in this home. It could be used as a family or play room or as a more formal dining room. To the left are double oak glazed doors to the living room. Decorated in neutral colours, this elegant room has a cool classic feel. The living flame gas fire sits in a simple marble fireplace with a reclaimed oak mantel which adds warmth and texture. A large bay window not only lets in lots of light but offers stunning far reaching views across the local countryside and up to iconic landmark of Castle Hill.

At the back of the house is a spacious open plan kitchen diner which is sure to be the heart of this home during the day and in the summer. The style is a modern classic with a clever use of bold colour on the walls. The Shaker style kitchen has a good range of base and wall units. There is plenty of worktop space and the layout makes it easy to catch up on news with family and friends as you prepare meals which can enjoyed at the dining table or alfresco in the sheltered back garden which is accessed from the patio doors in the dining area. The dining area has ample space for a dining table and it is so light thanks to the glazed roof.

The whole of this downstairs space has a lovely flow to it which is enhanced by the patio doors to the tiered back garden. The middle tier is a large patio area which is the perfect place to relax with family and friends over al fresco dining and a glass or two as you watch the children playing on the lawn below or on the pirate ship which is hidden away at the back.

Drag yourself back inside and out into the hall. To the right is an unusually large WC. To the left are the stairs to the first floor. The space under the stairs has been turned into a very useful utility area with ample room for both a washing machine and a tumble dryer.

Upstairs on the first floor, there are 3 bedrooms. Bedroom one is a large double to the front with fitted wardrobes. Its large bay window is the same size as that in the living room and offers stunning far-reaching views. The second bedroom at the back is a good sized double and the third, at the front, is a good sized single.

The last room on this floor is the family bathroom and it is an unexpected delight. It is very spacious with a contemporary free standing oval bath that is just perfect for relaxing after a busy day. There is also a large corner shower.

As previously noted, there are two versatile rooms in this house. The first is downstairs and the second is the loft. Accessed via stairs off the landing it has an interesting slightly quirky layout. Being the loft, there is some restricted head height on all sides. However, it's light courtesy of two roof windows, one being a velux. It would make a great hobby room or games room, perhaps even an office.

Outside: At the front there is a low maintenance sheltered garden with flags and blue slate. To the side, behind the gate is a tarmac driveway leading to the single garage. The driveway can easily accommodate 2 vehicles. The back garden is tiered to take advantage of the slight hillside location. The bottom tier closest to the house is mainly lawn with a bark base play area. The second tier is a large flagged patio with an additional stone built seat. The top tier is grass and has a wooden pirate ship at the back. It feels very secluded behind some trees and shrubs.

If you love the countryside, then you'll love the location. Just across the road, the footpath leads up towards Castle Hill. Wheatroyd Lane is ideally located for families with local schools close by. It's a comfortable walk or a short drive to the centre of Almondbury and its local shops and amenities. For those who need to commute, the property is close to bus routes to Huddersfield and by road to Huddersfield, Wakefield and Leeds.
