Lodge Close is a small cul-de-sac development set in a slightly elevated position overlooking the River Calder and Holmes Park. Despite being very handy for public transport and just a stone's throw from the village centre, it's far enough away to be unaffected by traffic noise from the main road. Commuting from here towards Halifax and the M62 is a breeze and the house has access to great countryside walks from the doorstep making it a real best-of-both-worlds location. Set in a prime position within the close, the property is not overlooked and has lovely leafy views from all the principal rooms. Completed in 2014 the layout is quite unusual, making the reception rooms much larger than you might expect. Decoration throughout is excellent, with colourful walls and quality neutral carpets throughout. Fans of diy should look elsewhere as there's no work to do - simply move in, unpack and relax!

The layout offers great flexibility. The ground floor comprises a hallway, guest cloakroom, a very large utility room, bedroom four and an integral garage, and lends itself perfectly to creating a separate home-within-home for a dependent relative. On the mid floor there's a large living room with Juliet balcony plus an excellent kitchen - dining room which is flooded with light thanks to its triple aspect. Finally the 2nd floor has three bedrooms (one ensuite) and the family bathroom, which are open to the eaves and enjoy wonderful far-reaching views.

Outside there's parking for two cars on the driveway, plus one in the garage. The garden is nicely landscaped with minimal maintenance in mind, and there's a delightful decked area set above the river, just perfect for meals alfresco or relaxing with your favourite tipple. A further paved area to the side of the house provides space to exercise your green fingers by growing a few veggies and also for a garden shed.

Beginning our tour at the front door, the hallway to the left takes us towards bedroom four, which is a good-sized double room, with neutral décor and a lovely outlook, a door leads out to the rear of the property. The cloakroom next door is intended for guests, but is spacious enough to add a shower too, if you wished. Across the hallway is a very large utility room with its own door to the outside, making this the ideal place for storing shoes and coats after a muddy walk. There's a sink, space for the laundry appliances, plus lots of cupboard space too. From the utility room a door opens into an integral garage, perfect for the car, the kid's bikes or perhaps a workshop? The new gas combination boiler is located here too, providing heating and hot water to the whole house. The size of the ground floor rooms also offers the opportunity for easy conversion (subject to planning permission) for use as an independent flat for someone with reduced mobility or other care needs.

Moving upstairs and we'll find the main living accommodation on the first floor. From the stairs a door opens into a spacious living room, which is beautifully decorated in calming neutral tones with a high-quality wood-effect floor. Light streams in through the large French doors, which open onto a Juliet balcony offering a relaxing outlook over woodland towards the river below. During the summer you can throw open the doors and let the outside in. This is a very attractive and comfortable room for the whole family to enjoy.

Just next door is the very large kitchen - dining room, which is another light and bright space thanks to the triple aspect windows. Perfect for family living, the kitchen is set out as a large L shape, with lots of workspace for cooking together. The shaker style units provide plenty of cupboard space, nicely complimented with marble effect worktops for a smart finish. There's a large ceramic sink enjoying fine countryside views. There are integrated appliances comprising electric oven, induction hob, microwave and dishwasher plus space for a freestanding fridge freezer.

The other half of the room is a very generous dining space, with room for a large dining table seating the whole family. Tastefully decorated in crisp white and enjoying light from two windows this is a lovely space to spend time in, whether for family meals or entertaining friends over food.

Up the stairs again, and the top floor is open to the eaves, giving a great sense of space in every room. The master bedroom overlooks the river below and is a good size, with a lovely ensuite shower room. Bedroom two is another double, and the third bedroom (currently used as a dressing room) is a single. The family bathroom has a dual aspect and is incredibly light. The deep, twin-ended bath is perfect for getting away from it all with a relaxing soak, and travertine-style tiles lend a spa-like feel. There's a shower over the bath too, as well as a basin with useful cupboard beneath and the WC.

In summary, this is a modern and practical family home, offering a very generous amount of floorspace and an easily-adaptable layout sure to appeal to many. In these times of high energy costs it's also to re-assuring to know that with a brand-new heating system and an EPC rating of C, heating costs will be relatively low. We're expecting a lot of interest in this excellent, well-located home, so call now, 24/7 to find out more or book online to reserve your place to view. We're looking forward to showing you around!
