This impressive mid-century modern home occupies a stunning and much sought after location with outstanding views to the rear across Woodsome Valley and beyond. It sits within a 0.33 acre plot with a generous driveway to the front and a beautiful garden area to the rear. Internally, it currently features a spacious downstairs space with open plan living room, reception hall/sitting room, dining room and separate kitchen, whilst upstairs there are 3 double bedrooms and a bathroom.

About Meadowcroft
Originally built circa 1965, this individually designed detached property is of brick built construction beneath a pitched concrete tiled roof with single storey flat roofed sections to either side. It has certainly been designed to maximise natural light and the views with its ground floor living rooms enjoying the South Eastern aspect and its fine views. The property sits within a wonderful 0.33 acre plot and is in one of Huddersfield’s most sought after settings.
You enter the property through the spacious entrance hall which is also open plan to a sitting room area but partially divided by a partition wall. This is in turn open plan to a good sized living room with sliding doors out to the rear garden. Original folding doors can be slid back to open the living room up to the dining room too. There is also a downstairs wc and kitchen on this floor which is fitted with relatively modern fitted units.
Wooden stairs from the living room lead up to the first floor landing behind a double height glazed section at the front of the building. On the landing there are generous built in storage cupboards. This floor features 3 double bedrooms, all of which are a good size, plus a house bathroom with modern fixtures and fittings.
The property has had modern upgrades with uPVC double glazed windows and gas central heating. Similarly the kitchen and bathroom have both been updated but there are still a number original features in situ.
Externally, there is a good-sized driveway generous parking and separate entrance and exits. A double garage is attached to one side of the house and there is also an outside store area to the other side. The rear garden is of an excellent size and features a seating area at the rear of the house extensive lawn with mature trees and borders and enjoys stunning far-reaching views over the open countryside at the rear. The field behind the property is owned collectively by a number of adjoining owners in order to protect the views. We understand that it is currently rented to a local farmer.<br /><br />
