Read the full agent description

This impressive, traditional Victorian town house with accommodation arranged across four levels, sits in a popular, elevated position in Hebden Bridge, offering expansive views over the town while remaining within comfortable walking distance of the vibrant town centre, Centre Vale Park, and the train station meaning all local amenities are a short distance away. Retaining a wealth of period features, the property boasts tall ceilings, large windows, elegant coving, ceiling roses, exposed floorboards, and period tiles in the entrance hall.

The front garden is accessed via a garden gate with a path leading towards the house. Stone steps lead up to the front entrance, featuring a classic door with a stained glass window and fanlight, while a separate set of stone steps leads down to a second external entrance for the lower ground floor.

Upon entering through the main front door, the panelled entrance hall features a staircase to the first floor and doors leading to the principal living areas. To the front, the main living room centres around an impressive tiled fireplace with an open fire and wooden surround, complemented by a bay window framing views of the front garden, alcove shelving, and exposed floorboards.

To the rear, the expansive open plan kitchen diner serves as the heart of the home, with a dedicated dining area with built in bookcases, a glazed ceiling, and a relaxed family snug area with built in shelving. The kitchen itself is equipped with a breakfast bar, gas five burner hob, electric oven, integrated dishwasher, plumbing for a washing machine, and space for a fridge/freezer. Extending off the kitchen, a glazed rear porch allows natural light to pour in while offering shoe storage, space for a tumble dryer, and direct access to the rear lane, parking, and garden. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a panelled cloakroom fitted with a white W/C and basin.

A door from the w/c opens onto stairs descending to the lower ground floor. This versatile level provides extensive storage, a traditional storage cellar complete with shelving, and a flexible large home gym space featuring its own external access.

The first floor centres around a split landing that leads to four bedrooms, the family bathroom, and a staircase up to the top floor. Bedroom one is a bright, substantial double bedroom positioned to the front, featuring three large windows that flood the room with natural light and frame far reaching views across Hebden Bridge. Bedroom two is another spacious double room overlooking the rear garden, benefiting from built in wardrobes and storage. Bedroom four, a large single room with a built in mezzanine bed, retains character with a decorative period fireplace along. Bedroom five is situated to the front, capturing lovely valley views, would make an ideal child's room or nursery and currently functions as a home study. The dual aspect family bathroom features a vanity basin, w/c, shower over the bath, heated towel rail, and integrated shelving. Occupying the entire top level, the third floor houses a final double bedroom with dedicated clothes hanging, is characterised by exposed timber beams, a skylight, a dedicated study nook with built in desk, and generous eaves storage.

Externally, the property stands out for its exceptional outdoor space and practical amenities so close to the town centre. Outside, there is a private garage alongside off road parking for two vehicles. The substantial rear garden is arranged over multiple tiers and accessed via stone steps, offering various dedicated outdoor zones. Highlights include a large wooden greenhouse that leads onto a two tiered lawn, raised vegetable beds, and productive fruit trees including apple and plum varieties.

Hebden Bridge is renowned for its bohemian charm, independent spirit, and picturesque Calder Valley setting, brimming with artisan shops, bustling market stalls, local cafes, and a thriving arts scene. Excellent transport links from the local train station offer direct routes to major hubs including Manchester and Leeds, making this property an ideal home for commuters seeking a countryside lifestyle.
