The Piggery nestled on the hillside, is a remarkable four-bedroom detached home, and offers a unique blend of rustic charm and modern convenience, set in approximately 2.2 acres of land with potential for enhancement. Standing proudly, the house enjoys sweeping views across the valley, overlooking its beautiful front gardens and enclosed paddock. A driveway provides parking for two vehicles, and from there, a path leads through mature gardens leading to the front door, which opens into an impressive entrance hall. This space, at the heart of the home, is bathed in natural light, thanks to a stunning skylight and galleried landing above, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere.

To the left of the entrance hall is the well-appointed kitchen, a cook's delight with its granite worktops, Rayburn oven, gas hob, electric oven, and Belfast sink. Thoughtfully designed, it also boasts an integrated dishwasher, fridge/freezer, and plumbing for a washing machine. The kitchen's rustic charm is enhanced by exposed stonework, a stone-flagged floor, and panoramic views over the front garden and valley. An external door leads directly from the kitchen into the garden, while a handy pantry cupboard provides extra storage.

Adjacent to the kitchen is the dining room, where exposed beams and a striking red brick wall add character. With views to both the front and rear, this room is perfect for intimate dinners or family gatherings in the midst of the home's stunning surroundings.

Moving further inside, the spacious living room beckons, accessed through a striking stone archway from the entrance hall. A multi-fuel stove sits within the stone fireplace, offering warmth and coziness, while wood panelling on the walls and an exposed red brick feature wall add further charm. Large windows allow views of both the front and side gardens, and beneath the stairs, there's a useful nook for additional storage.

Beyond the living room lies another reception room, currently serving as a gym but easily adaptable to suit other needs, such as a snug, family room, or home office.

Additionally, a boot room provides a secondary entrance, perfect for outdoor enthusiasts or those returning from country walks.

The ground floor also features two double bedrooms, one of which enjoys the privacy of an ensuite shower room, while the family bathroom is beautifully appointed with a white three-piece suite, including a jacuzzi bath, separate shower, and heated towel rail, offering luxury and comfort.

A staircase, rising from the living room and incorporating a large built-in bookcase, leads to the first floor.

Here, a landing with ample storage space opens up to an impressive balcony, overlooking the entrance hall and framed by large skylights that flood the space with light while showcasing the breathtaking views outside.

Two further double bedrooms are located on this floor, each with its own unique character.

The principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite bathroom with a white three-piece suite, while an additional WC adds further convenience.

Outside, the property is surrounded by meticulously maintained gardens, featuring two enclosed "pig styes," a lawned garden, and various seating areas for relaxation or entertaining. A useful shed and established fruit trees sit to the rear, while the enclosed paddock, with gated access from the parking area, provides an opportunity for those with equestrian interests or further landscaping dreams.

The uninterrupted views over the surrounding fields and valley beyond are simply breathtaking, making this countryside haven a peaceful retreat.

Despite its idyllic rural setting, this property is conveniently located just a short drive from the nearby villages of Mytholmroyd, Hebden Bridge, Sowerby Bridge, and Ripponden. These vibrant communities offer a range of amenities and a lively atmosphere, while excellent transport links, including easy access to the M62 and nearby train stations in Sowerby Bridge and Mytholmroyd, ensure that commuting to Leeds and Manchester is both quick and convenient.

The Piggery with its unique character and design is truly a one of a kind property.
