A short distance from the varied amenities and village church in Almondbury, is this little known picturesque setting.

Part of the local conservation area and with greenbelt and local scenic walks all around, the position of Croft House is quite remarkable. Handy for everything one might need on a daily basis, but private all the same.

A superbly maintained Grade II listed house with four bedrooms, three formal reception rooms, a reception hall and beautiful dining kitchen too. Complemented by gorgeous fireplaces, ceiling mouldings, and deep skirting boards.

The house has lots of useful storage with two cellars, a utility room and both walk-in and built-in stores here and there.

The style and character on display is truly lovely. Large picture windows command views across the garden and down the valley.

With the property having its own paddock and stables, this could be the perfect home for many.

There is a large driveway/parking area, and also a generous garage too.

Formal gardens that are well stocked and easy to manage occupy the front elevation and there is a patio for alfresco dining.

The property has timber framed sealed unit double glazing, a gas central heating system and a security alarm system.

The accommodation which has to be viewed to be fully appreciated briefly comprises:-

Formal Reception Hall, Drawing Room with a beautiful fireplace, wood burning stove and a built in book case.

There is a Dining Room which our clients have used for a variety of purposes over the years - even a guest bedroom from time to time as it has a useful rear cloakroom with fitted wardrobes providing storage.

The Sitting Room is a genuine delight. Boasting a large bay window with views over the garden and a lovely central fireplace. Double doors lead into the Dining Kitchen.

The kitchen is fitted with a beautifully styled and appointed range of kitchen cabinets with quartz worktops and the all important AGA. French Windows lead out onto the garden.

The utility room provides additional storage and practical space.

Off the main reception hall is a useful rear hall providing a convenient route to the village. There is a useful walk-in store and a ground floor w.c. too.

A turned staircase rises to the first floor landing which provides access to the four bedrooms and home office.

The Master Bedroom has a stylish Dressing Room that provides access to the modern fitted En-Suite Bathroom which also has a shower cubicle and well chosen tiling. The master bedroom also has a useful walk-in wardrobe.

Bedroom 2 is particularly large with fitted wardrobes, and bedroom 3 is a smaller double bedroom, again with fitted wardrobes. Bedroom 4 is a good sized twin room and there is a delightful Study for home working, although the view might be a distraction. The bedroom wing is served by a modern shower room and separate w.c..

Outside, the gardens are a delight, with superbly presented lawns with well stocked flower and shrub beds, patio and summerhouse.

The garage is accessed from the side lane and garden. The access lane known as Grasscroft is a private unadopted road serving the immediate neighbourhood and our clients have helped to maintain it to a very good standard. The house is approached via a sweeping driveway into a large parking area.

At the front of the property the house affords a paddock and stables. Note the public footpath which provides access to Sharp Lane and the Farnley Line area.

Almondbury is steeped in local history and has some of Huddersfield’s most prestigious homes. It has a wide variety of local amenities and services as well as independent shops and places to eat out and socialise.

Very convenient for access to Huddersfield and the University, the area is popular with a wide variety of people, including families and professionals.

The house, whilst not detached, feels very much so. Approached mostly from one elevation and affording discreet convenience.

In all, this is one of our favourite homes on the market, and we highly recommend a personal viewing for discerning buyer seeking a house of quality and good stature.
