Nestled in the picturesque Colden Valley near Blackshaw Head, this Grade II listed stone-built cottage offers a rare blend of historic charm and modern convenience. Situated in an idyllic rural location with breathtaking countryside views, the property is a haven of tranquillity with original features and thoughtful contemporary updates throughout.

As you step through the timber front door into the half-glazed vestibule, you'll find a warm and practical space, perfect for shedding muddy boots and drying off coats after a countryside walk. The charm begins immediately as you enter the lounge. Exposed stone walls, flagged floors, and beamed ceilings create a cosy, welcoming atmosphere. The centerpiece of the room is a magnificent stone fireplace, recently enhanced with a new wood-burning stove and flue liner. Mullion windows frame stunning views to the front, while fitted alcove cupboards offer an abundance of storage.

The lounge flows seamlessly into the beautifully designed kitchen. Retaining the flagged flooring, the space has a lovely rustic character with modern functionality. The kitchen features stylish, handle-less wooden units that house high-quality appliances, including a double electric oven, ceramic hob, cooker hood, and a stainless steel sink with a mixer tap. Cleverly designed storage solutions, such as carousel corner units and under-stairs cupboards with space for a fridge freezer, maximize the space. A glazed stable door opens out to the secluded rear patio and garden, completing the heart of this delightful home.

Upstairs, the charm continues. The painted wooden banister and clad ceiling add character to the staircase, and a mullion window provides views of the terraced garden. The landing is surprisingly spacious, with plumbing for a washer and access to a fully boarded and carpeted loft space via a pull-down ladder – an ideal additional storage area, complete with lighting and extra eaves storage.

The master bedroom is a true sanctuary, featuring mirror-fronted slide robes and original wood floorboards. Stone mullion windows offer enchanting views over the stream to the open countryside beyond. The second bedroom, though smaller, is equally charming, with exposed stonework, varnished wooden floors, and a floor-to-ceiling bookcase. This room overlooks the serene rear gardens and fields beyond.

The bathroom strikes a perfect balance between old and new. Travertine tiles, a bath with a shower over, and a modern vanity unit with storage provide practicality, while the exposed stone wall and mullion windows add character. The ceiling, clad in wood with inset spotlights, completes the room's elegant aesthetic.


On to practical matters, the property has double glazing throughout and the heating is provided via a gas powered condensing boiler with a multi-fuel stove in the lounge for extra cosiness.

The property's gardens are a gardener's paradise, thoughtfully designed to make the most of the south-facing aspect. At the front, across the bridleway a small walled garden, gravelled with pretty raised flowerbeds sets the tone. Situated beside the stream it offers a tranquil spot to relax and listen to the water flow.

The rear garden is a tiered masterpiece. From the private and tranquil courtyard area outside the kitchen, steps lead to four levels of lush planting, wildlife-friendly features, and practical spaces. A willow arch, a pond, patios and flowerbeds brimming with perennials create a haven for nature, while the topmost terrace provides panoramic views over the Colden Valley. Plus a potting shed, raised vegetable beds, and a polytunnel ensure ample opportunities for cultivating organic produce.

Located just three miles from the vibrant town of Hebden Bridge, this cottage is perfectly positioned for both seclusion and convenience. Hebden Bridge offers a wealth of amenities, including the train station with regular services to Manchester and Leeds. Closer to home, a highly regarded primary school, a popular ale house, and Mays Shop are all within easy reach.

This beautifully maintained cottage is ready to welcome its next owners into a life of rural charm and comfort. With its rich blend of period features, modern updates, and spectacular setting, it truly is a home to treasure.
