"It is our pleasure to offer for sale this unique 5 bedroom detached property, located on the outskirts of Holme Village with Holme Moss providing an imposing backdrop. The property was formerly a barn which has been converted and extended to the side with an additional annex studio and garage at a lower level which is not obvious at first glance. The property sits within an impressive plot of just over an acre and must be viewed to be fully appreciated.

About the property
This impressive stone built detached house was formerly a modest barn originally converted into a dwelling in the 1960s. Our client subsequently purchased the property in 1985 and commissioned a scheme of renovation with a large 3 storey extension to the side. An additional section was added to the front at lower ground floor level which includes a garden room, studio and a double garage. We feel that it could offer great potential for a buyer who requires a space to work from home whether they be a creative, therapist or simply appreciate a peaceful rural view.

The village of Holme lies approximately two and a half miles from the centre of Holmfirth and its many amenities. It falls within the Peak District National Park meaning that the village and surrounding countryside retains its natural charm and integrity. At the heart of the village there is a popular local pub and restaurant The Fleece, a small Junior School and village Community Centre. The village is much favoured by walkers, cyclists and lovers of the outdoors.

The main entrance door to the house is at ground floor level and opens into the main living area which is 31 and features living and dining room areas which feature a double sided stone chimney breast with open fireplace and windows enjoying the views. Also on this floor you will find the dining kitchen and a utility room wc.

Stairs from the dining room area lead to upper and lower floors. At first floor level there are 4 bedrooms, 2 are large doubles and 2 smaller doubles. The principal bedroom has its own en suite bathroom and fitted wardrobes whilst bedroom 2 has windows on 3 sides. Bedrooms 3 & 4 have recessed built in wardrobes. The house bathroom is also to be found on this floor.

At lower ground floor level this house really begins to take on a surprising identity. There is a large bed sitting room with glazed double doors opening to the garden this has a small kitchenette off, shower room and sauna. A further door at the bottom of the stairs leads into the garden room with its sloping glass roof and windows overlooking the side garden and beyond. From here there is a large and flexible studio room with a long bank of windows enjoy the views, currently used as our clients office but offering the possibility for a variety of other uses. An interconnecting lobby area features a wc off and a door leading through to the double garage.

The internal finish of the property largely dates back to the 1980 s when the property was first renovated and whilst it is generally well maintained and functional we do expect that the next owner will look to carry out further modernisation and updating to their own tastes and needs. The garden room is in need of repair and has suffered from water ingress.

It is connected to mains electricity, water and drainage. The central heating system operated from a boiler in a small room beneath the utility room. This is supplied via a Calor Gas LPG tank within the grounds. The windows are mostly wooden framed double glazed units with some replacement uPVC units.

Externally, there are generous grounds of over an acre which include a generous driveway parking area, stone paved path and patio area in front of the house with mature borders. A small gated path gives access along the rear of the building and there is a further lawned garden to the lower side of the house. Beyond here the less formal grounds feature a number of mature trees.

The property is offered for sale with no vendor chain as our clients have another property to move into.
