Description
This hidden sanctuary, known as Sunset, is a rare development opportunity nestled in a quiet country lane on the outskirts of Halifax. The property, built in the 1930s for a coal merchant's French wife, boasts a unique charm and offers a chance to create a dream home. With newly-approved planning permission, the existing five-bedroom home can be remodeled, and the detached barn can be converted into a six-bedroom dwelling. The property is surrounded by approximately 0.74 acres of gardens and grounds, featuring lawns, box hedging, and a wildlife-rich pond. Despite its secluded setting, Sunset is just a few minutes' drive from Halifax town center, offering a balance of rural tranquility and urban convenience. The property has a rich history, and its unique features, including a conservatory, multi-fuel stove, and bespoke fitted wardrobes, make it an appealing prospect for developers, self-builders, or those seeking a bespoke multi-generational retreat.
