Huddersfield Road, Meltham, Holmfirth HD9

Set back from the main road in the popular village of Meltham is this truly remarkable and very well proportioned Victorian residence. Constructed in 1840, Croft House was given an air of distinction by it's rare Georgian interior. The property is offered for sale with no upper chain involved and has been sympathetically restored and well maintained by the current owners. Boasting a host of original and restored features such as sash windows with window shutters, cast iron fire places and a mosaic tiled entrance hall to name but a few. There are three receptions rooms and five generous bedrooms over three floors. On the ground floor there are a wet room, utility room and a beautiful fully fitted breakfast kitchen featuring a central island. The majority of the windows are the original single glazed sash units and there is a gas central heating system. There are cellars with vaulted ceilings which could be put to a multitude of uses. Externally there are manageable gardens with a stone outhouse, ample parking and planning permission for a double garage. The village of Meltham sits in the foothills of the Pennines and is only a short distance away from the Peak District National Park. Ideally placed for commuting to all the major towns and cities of the North and close to local amenities and schools we feel this property would be of particular interest to the family buyer.
