PROPERTY DETAILS
COMING TO MARKET FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 28 YEARS – A TRULY REMARKABLE OPPORTUNITY
Presenting a rare and exceptional offering, this stunning five-bedroom stone-built Arts and Crafts detached dormer bungalow is now available for the first time in nearly three decades. Set on a generous and beautifully landscaped plot, this unique home boasts breathtaking panoramic views from the front elevation and is brimming with charming original features that speak to its rich architectural heritage.
From the moment you arrive, the home’s character and craftsmanship are immediately apparent. Step onto the ornate original veranda, which welcomes you into the entrance vestibule. Beyond this lies a spacious hallway, adorned with original Lincrusta panelling, setting the tone for the elegance that unfolds throughout the property. The layout flows effortlessly into an inner hall, where a graceful open return staircase leads to the upper level.
The formal sitting room is a beautiful and inviting space, complete with an ornate fireplace, original coving, and a large bay window that frames the glorious views. Additional windows along the side elevation bathe the room in natural light.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the bespoke dining kitchen, featuring a central island, high-quality integrated appliances and an attractive open fireplace. From here, views over the mature front garden and countryside beyond add to the peaceful ambience. Adjoining the kitchen is a wonderful conservatory with a solid roof—an ideal setting for year-round enjoyment of the landscape.
The ground floor also hosts three generously proportioned double bedrooms, each with period fireplaces and built-in wardrobes. A luxury four-piece house bathroom, thoughtfully designed and finished to a high standard, completes the main floor.
Upstairs, a spacious landing with exposed beams, a Velux window, and ample built-in storage leads to two further double bedrooms, each with distinctive ceiling features. A modern three-piece shower room serves this floor with style and functionality.
Outside, the property continues to impress. A private gated driveway leads to a detached stone-built garage, originally the property’s stable. (Subject to the necessary planning consents, this space holds potential for conversion into an annexe, home office or studio.) Two additional substantial stone outbuildings provide further versatile options.
The wrap-around garden is a true sanctuary—immaculately maintained with a blend of lawns, mature planting, colourful flowerbeds and secluded seating areas, ideal for both relaxation and entertaining.
Located at the top of Green Lane, one of the most prestigious and sought-after addresses in the area, this property is nestled among a variety of unique, high-quality homes. Despite its peaceful setting, it’s just a short stroll from the vibrant village of Cross Hills, where you’ll find independent shops, cafes, bars, restaurants and essential amenities including GP and dental practices. Outstanding schools for all age groups are within easy walking distance, and excellent public transport links, including nearby Steeton railway station, provide superb commuter access.
If you’ve been waiting for something truly special—a rare gem in a prime location that seamlessly blends character, space and potential—this remarkable home deserves your attention.
