4 bedroom house

ABOUT STUD ROYD FARM The property enjoys an enviable position off a long unmade track on the hills above Meltham bordering moorland and the Peak District National Park. It enjoys panoramic rural views which extend far over Huddersfield and beyond. It will appeal to buyers who require a property for equestrian use and similarly has the potential for the barn to be utilised for a space to work from home or other possibilities subject to planning permission.

The main house is of stone built construction under slate roof and has been much improved by the present owners in recent years. It is entered through an entrance hall to the front which gives access to the downstairs rooms. There is a good sized lounge with dual aspect picture windows enjoying the views. The dining room is also of excellent proportions and offers the flexibility to be a second sitting room. There is a modern kitchen which has been re-fitted by our clients which has a door leading through into the glazed conservatory at the rear of the house. Also on this floor there is a downstairs single bedroom / study, wc, utility room / rear entrance and shower room.

Stairs lead from the hall to the first floor and feature a tall window to the side at the half landing level. The principal bedroom features a dormer window to the side enjoying the views, walk in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room. There are also 3 further good sized bedrooms and a good sized house bathroom with 4 piece suite.

Externally a tarmac driveway leads past the front of the house through to a generous parking area at the side and rear of the building with a separate entrance to the lane above. Beyond here you will find the stone built detached barn which has a lean to car / implement store at the side and an attached stable block at the rear.

There are pleasant lawned gardens and a generous terraced seating area which enjoys superb views. Below the house there is a large paddock of grazing land and there is also a further small holding paddock above the barn and stables. The total site area extends to approximately 3.26 acres.

The property has a gas central heating system including a new energy efficient boiler and is also connected to mains water and electricity. Drainage is to a septic tank in the field behind the house.
