6 bed detached house for sale

High Lea, High Lee Lane, Scammonden Road, Barkisland HX4

Agent reference TS0571

This substantial, detached family home offers a brilliant solution for multi-generational living, seamlessly balancing busy family life with absolute peace and privacy.

Tucked away at the end of a private track on the edge of Barkisland and Norland, the property is surrounded by open fields and framed by traditional Yorkshire stone walling. A secure, gated driveway provides plenty of parking and turning space, making a fantastic first impression.

A standout feature is the self-contained ground-floor annexe. Converted from a former garage, this space enjoys underfloor heating, its own front door, a comfortable living area, a double bedroom, and a modern shower room. It is ideal for grandparents, teenagers wanting their own independence, or even as a premium holiday let.

Back in the main house, you come in through the sun room to a large, welcoming entrance hall. Built-in cupboards and drawers keep a whole family's coats and boots tidy, and there's a cloakroom too.

The real heart of the home is the magnificent, 30ft open-plan kitchen and dining room, designed as the ultimate space for everyone to gather. It features beautiful stone worktops, a central island with a breakfast bar, high-end integrated Neff appliances (including a five-ring gas hob and twin ovens), and a Quooker hot water tap. Two large roof lights flood the space with natural light. Adjoining the kitchen is a useful utility space with a rear external door, ideal when returning from a muddy walk. Just off the kitchen is a cosy sitting room, with both spaces sharing the warmth of a double-sided stove set within a striking stone Inglenook fireplace.

Also on the ground floor, there are two generous double bedrooms. One of these ground-floor rooms features a four-piece en-suite with a freestanding roll-top bath, offering excellent accessibility. Comfortable underfloor heating runs throughout this entire lower level.

Upstairs, the layout is incredibly clever, essentially splitting the first floor into two wings accessed by their own staircases. One has a bedroom and a family room with six roof windows, looking out over green fields and the hillside beyond. It's a ready-made teenage den, and the view is hard to beat. The opposite wing houses two further double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite shower room. The main bedroom also enjoys a dedicated walk-in wardrobe and built-in speakers.

Outside, the private gardens are large and level, with lawns, a flagged patio, a summer house and a garden pond. Yorkshire stone walling frames the space, and open fields begin at the boundary.

The vendors own several of the neighbouring fields and they're available to buy through separate negotiation.

If you want three generations under one roof, with everyone getting their own space, this is the house to see.
