6 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Hebden Bridge

2 6 4

HILLSIDE RESIDENCE WITH PANORAMIC VIEWS AND EXTENSIVE FAMILY ACCOMMODATION

Perched above the picturesque town of Hebden Bridge and commanding breathtaking views across the valley, Smithfield House is an exceptional home, offering expansive and versatile living space set within tiered grounds. Blending modern comforts with timeless touches, this substantial home presents an enviable lifestyle opportunity in the heart of Calderdale.

It is set within a generous 0.87 acre plot and also benefits from lapsed planning permission to build a substantial five-bedroom detached property within the grounds - offering huge potential for development, multi-generational living, or investment.

INSIDE THE HOME

GROUND FLOOR

A welcoming hallway sets the tone with its warm wooden flooring, elegant cornicing, and stylish radiator covers.

A handy downstairs cloakroom features a tiled floor, WC, and wash basin. A generous cupboard sits under the stairs off the hall.

The study, currently used as a library, enjoys a tranquil feel with wooden flooring - ideal for home working or reading.

The main lounge is a showstopper. Triple aspect windows and French doors flood the room with light and open onto a large flagged extensive terrace with sweeping views over the valley. A commanding stone fireplace with a large Hunter wood-burning stove provides a stunning focal point.

An adjoining room - currently used as a garden room - offers flexibility as a dining room or additional sitting space. It also benefits from French doors opening out to the terrace. This would make an excellent dining room as it connects to the kitchen.

At the heart of the home is a generously proportioned kitchen diner, featuring tiled flooring and dual-aspect windows. A central island includes an integrated gas hob, plug sockets, and downlighting with an extractor hood above. Wooden wall, base, and drawer units are paired with granite worktops, a pull-out pantry, and premium Neff ovens with a warming drawer.

A utility room leads off the kitchen, fitted with base and wall units, sink, and space for a washing machine. This in turn leads to an entrance vestibule with built-in cupboards, shelving, and a boiler cupboard.

A spacious landing leads to:
- A luxurious family bathroom with tiled flooring, freestanding bath, walk-in shower, WC, and a bowl sink mounted on a wood-topped vanity with gloss drawers.

- The principal suite, a substantial double bedroom with dual-aspect mullion windows, enjoys an adjoining walk-in wardrobe/dressing room complete with built-in storage. The luxurious ensuite includes a bath, shower, WC, and sink.

SECOND FLOOR

The top floor features:
- Two spacious double bedrooms with characterful vaulted ceilings, which share a Jack & Jill bathroom with shower, WC, and sink.
- A shared dressing room with skylight links the bedrooms.
- There are also two boarded and insulated lofts for storage, with capacity to be further developed if more space is needed.

GARDENS AND GROUNDS

Set within landscaped, tiered grounds extending to approximately 0.87 acres, the property includes:
- A large flagged extensive terrace overlooking Hebden Bridge, accessed via multiple ground floor rooms.
- Stairs and a walkway lead from the terrace down past a gravel tier and a grassy expanse, to a public right of way.
- A polytunnel, standalone wooden garden shed, large wood store, and large double garage with in-built storage.
- Flowerbeds run alongside the house, adding seasonal colour.
- A turning circle provides practical access and parking.
- The grounds also offer the exciting prospect of a second dwelling, with lapsed planning permission previously granted for a five-bedroom detached property.


LOCATION

Smithfield House enjoys a prime elevated position just a short five-minute walk from the heart of Hebden Bridge, a vibrant market town known for its independent shops, cafes, and strong creative community. Surrounded by stunning countryside and canal-side walks, the area offers a perfect balance of rural charm and modern convenience.

Lee Woods, with extensive footpaths, leads directly from the hamlet of The Hollins, which in turn connects to the National Trust area of Hardcastle Crags. The Hollins is a sheltered historic hamlet consisting of former weavers' cottages.

Families are well served by a selection of highly regarded local schools, including Calder High and nearby grammar options in Halifax.
