A GRADE II listed five-bedroom family home in Halifax set within 2.44 acres of land has been put up for sale with a guide price of offers over £895,000.

Old Riding Farm is located in the picturesqu­e Luddenden Valley countrysid­e and offers a wealth of period fixtures and fittings throughout.

The property has been brought to market by West Yorkshire-based Charnock Bates, a specialist in selling fine, country and period homes.

The entrance to the property is through a solid oak door, with the hallway finished in Yorkshire stone flooring with exposed beams.

Off the hallway lies the stylish dining kitchen, featuring Indian stone flagged flooring, exposed beams, and stone mullion windows framing views of the rear garden and fields.

Opposite the dining kitchen is the spacious lounge. The Hunter Herald multi-fuel burner and stone hearth offer a focal point, while the dual aspect stone mullion windows offer stunning views of the surroundin­g countrysid­e. The lounge also offers access to the study.

On the opposite side of the property is a separate sitting room, also with a stone fireplace. The room offers an alternativ­e place downstairs to sit and enjoy the picturesqu­e views.

Downstairs is completed by a utility room, boot room and a newly-fitted three-piece shower room comprising WC, wash-hand basin and double walk-in rainfall shower.

Access to the upstairs is via a beautiful oak staircase, leading to a hallway off which lies the principal bedroom. The generous bedroom features a sandstone fireplace, walk-in wardrobe and four-piece en-suite.

Three further double bedrooms are located on the first floor, all offering views of the surroundin­g open countrysid­e. A fifth bedroom, which can be used as a study and the house bathroom, comprising stand-alone bath with overhead shower attachment, complete the first floor accommodat­ion.

Externally, a natural stone driveway provides parking for six cars, leading to outbuildin­gs and a greenhouse.

A Yorkshire stone flagged pathway meanders through the landscaped garden with terraces, a summerhous­e and an expansive lawn, bordered by mature planting.

A gate grants access to approximat­ely two acres of sloping grazing land, completing this countrysid­e haven.

Charnock Bates director, Ben Waites, said: “Old Riding Farm offers a rare opportunit­y to embrace a lifestyle of rural tranquilli­ty while enjoying proximity to amenities, in a much soughtafte­r location.”
