A Rare Opportunity to Own a Distinguished 19th-Century Residence

Originally built in the 19th century and once the esteemed home of Judge James Pickles, Hazelwood is an exceptional property exuding timeless elegance. Spanning over 500 sqm across three floors, this unique home seamlessly combines period charm with contemporary family living. Meticulously restored by the current owners, every element has been enhanced in harmony with the property’s original character, highlighting its intricate traditional features while showcasing its vast and versatile living spaces. Set within a private 0.67-acre plot, including 0.48 acres of beautifully maintained gardens, Hazelwood offers both space and seclusion in one of the most sought-after locations in Skircoat Green/Savile Park.

Ground Floor

The ground floor welcomes you through a charming entrance vestibule and hallway via a solid timber and glazed door and a set of double glazed doors. This space is finished with Victorian quarry tiles, a feature archway, and an open stone staircase with spindle balustrade leading to the first floor.

To the right, the spacious lounge exudes period charm with high skirting, panelled feature walls, and ornate cornicing. A large bay window floods the room with natural light and offers views over the private front garden. The open decorative fireplace, with Adam-style stone hearth and ornate surround, forms an elegant focal point.

Across the hallway lies the true heart of the home: The dining kitchen, finished with solid oak flooring, high skirting, and panelled walls beneath a coved ceiling. A feature front bay window frames garden views, while an Adam-style decorative fireplace with granite hearth and marble surround adds grandeur. The kitchen is fitted with a central island and bespoke shaker-style cabinetry, complemented by granite worktops and a range of quality integrated appliances, including two double-ring induction hobs, dishwasher, electric oven, and microwave. A recess accommodates an American-style fridge-freezer, and a larder cupboard offers additional storage. From here, a door leads to the cellar, providing excellent storage.

Adjoining the kitchen is a WC and a luxurious three-piece bathroom, featuring a Royal Doulton porcelain sink, a Victorian roll-top bath, and a walk-in rainfall shower with handheld attachment.

A rear hall with solid stone flooring leads to the utility room, fitted with base and wall units, solid timber work surfaces, and double Shanks porcelain sinks. There is plumbing for a washing machine, wall-mounted shelving, and access to the former coal bunker, now used as storage.

From the kitchen, you can also enter the snug, a cosy retreat with exposed timber trusses, built-in cupboards, shelving, and natural light from twin Velux windows. Beyond is the billiard room - a spacious, versatile area offering potential for conversion (subject to consents).

A further sitting room completes the ground floor, distinguished by decorative coving, high skirting, panelled walls, and an ornate open fireplace with marble surround and herringbone brick hearth.

First Floor

From the half-landing, a stained-glass skylight and feature window create an airy atmosphere. This level includes a study and a stylish three-piece shower room with Victorian-style tiling.

The principal bedroom enjoys a front bay window overlooking the gardens, ornate coved ceiling, bespoke fitted wardrobes, and a porcelain pedestal basin. Its Adam-style fireplace with ceramic hearth adds charm. A connecting room - ideal as a dressing room or nursery - features decorative coved ceilings and dado rails.

A second spacious bedroom offers dual-aspect leaded windows, fitted wardrobes, and a Victorian-style fireplace, along with an ensuite shower room with rainfall shower. A third large bedroom benefits from a bay window, built-in storage, a hand wash basin, and an Adam-style fireplace.

First Floor - West Wing

Formerly the servants’ quarters, the West Wing begins with a family bathroom featuring a cast-iron roll-top bath, marble-tiled walls, pedestal basin, and WC. A bedroom with built-in wardrobes follows, before a concealed oak bookshelf door reveals another bedroom with spot lighting and an ensuite shower room.

Second Floor

The upper level hosts a substantial bedroom with solid timber trusses, far-reaching views, and a four-piece ensuite including an L-shaped bath and twin basins. A further bedroom with feature window completes the accommodation.

External

A tall stone garden wall, accented by traditional stone columns and ornate wrought-iron plinths, frames the property and leads to a private sweeping driveway with hardstanding for up to six vehicles. The generous south-east facing lawn, dotted with mature Beech trees, provides approximately 0.48 acres of beautifully maintained outdoor space and ensures a remarkable degree of privacy.

To the side, a Victorian tiled terrace - once home to the property’s orangery - now offers an elegant setting for alfresco dining and outdoor entertaining. From here, steps lead down to a charming gravelled patio, bordered by a stone wall and gate that opens into the rear garden.

At the rear, a further stone wall with timber pedestrian gates grants discreet access from the road, continuing the property’s exceptional privacy. A solid stone pathway leads to another stone terrace, creating a graceful approach to the rear entrance of the home.

Location

Savile Park is renowned for its convenience and charm, situated close to Halifax Town Centre and a wealth of local amenities including shops, bars, supermarkets, and healthcare facilities. Excellent schooling options, including a private school and grammar school, are within walking distance. The area also benefits from proximity to the Lloyds Banking Group head office, Calderdale Royal Hospital, and the acclaimed Manor Heath Park—with its tropical butterfly house, family events, café, and play areas.
