A substantial five-bedroom semi-detached family home, offered to the market. Built in 1910, this imposing Edwardian residence has been thoughtfully renovated and extended over the years to create an outstanding family home. Boasting a south-west facing garden, an impressive open-plan kitchen and dining space, and a private gated entrance, this property offers a rare combination of space, character, and modern living. Ideally positioned opposite the entrance to Haworth Park & Art Gallery, the property enjoys convenient access to excellent transport links, highly regarded primary and secondary schools, and a variety of scenic rural walks around Baxenden.

The ground floor begins with an entrance vestibule featuring original tiled flooring, a glass-panelled wooden door, period crown mouldings, and a pendant light fitting. The welcoming entrance hallway continues the sense of grandeur, with laminate flooring, original mouldings, and useful under-stairs storage. The family lounge offers fitted carpets, a bay window, period detailing, and a gas fire, while the formal lounge features oak sprung flooring, a bay window, pendant lighting, and a log burner. A versatile den/office includes Karndean flooring, a remote-controlled gas fire, and pendant lighting, with an adjacent garden room—converted from a conservatory in 2017—providing tiled flooring, spot lighting, and French doors opening onto the garden. The ground floor is further complemented by a cloakroom, wine storage, and a downstairs WC. To the rear, a stunning open-plan kitchen and dining room has been created via a single-storey extension. The kitchen features contemporary white gloss wall and base units, quartz worktops, and integrated appliances, complemented by a combination of pendant and spot lighting, underfloor heating, and tiled flooring. The adjoining living space also benefits from underfloor heating, spot lighting, remote-controlled Velux windows, and bi-folding doors opening onto the garden. A rear lobby provides additional access to the property, along with a utility area and plant room housing the annually serviced boiler. The first floor comprises five well-proportioned bedrooms, a family shower room, and a luxurious principal suite. The principal bedroom has been beautifully redesigned by the current owners and features a bay window with views towards Green Haworth, polished floorboards, a picture rail, ceiling rose, and pendant lighting. It is complemented by a stylish four-piece en-suite, including a walk-in shower, vanity unit, and a freestanding bath set within the bay window, as well as a walk-in wardrobe. The remaining bedrooms each offer their own charm, with a mix of fitted carpets, period features, and pleasant outlooks—several enjoying views over Haworth Park or towards Green Haworth. The first floor is completed by a modern family shower room with walk-in shower, spot lighting, vanity unit, and full-height cabinetry. Externally, the property occupies a substantial plot with a mature front garden featuring a variety of established planting.
