The Barn, 6 Cromwell Bottom Drive, Brighouse HD6 2SP

Agent Reference TS0571 This immaculate beamed barn conversion, which sits just above Freeman’s Cut lake, gives you peace, quiet and nature reserve walks during the week. And on the weekend there’s enough versatile space to welcome the whole family.  Nobody tells you this when the kids move out - you don't actually want less house, you want a different kind of house. One that knows the difference between a quiet Tuesday and a busy Saturday. This stone barn conversion sits in a small hamlet on the edge of Brighouse, with Freeman's Cut and the Cromwell Nature Reserve close enough that a walk before breakfast becomes part of the daily routine.  The M62 is only a few minutes away too, so trips to see family - or family coming to see you - are never a chore. Inside, original beams run across the master bedroom ceiling and along the landing, giving the house a real sense of history.  The dining kitchen stretches almost 19ft, with a gas range cooker, integrated appliances and enough room for the whole family to sit down together when they visit. Glass doors lead through to the lounge, where a stone fireplace and French doors onto the terrace garden make it an easy room to spend an evening in. Five bedrooms and three bathrooms across the upper two floors mean this house flexes with you. Right now, two of the first floor bedrooms are set up as a second sitting room and a library - proper spaces for reading, for a hobby, for having your own corner of the house.  Come the weekend, they can flip back into bedrooms and the whole place fills up again. There are two spacious double bedrooms on the top floor, divided by a spacious four-piece bathroom (including a jacuzzi style corner bath) plus Velux windows set into the beamed ceiling.  Outside, the private front garden is mostly patio and mature planting with a wooden summerhouse tucked in the corner. There's designated parking for two cars, with further space for visitors.

There’s plenty to explore on your doorstep, with the lake, the nature reserve, the river and canal all offering you the chance to get outdoors.  And you won’t have to go far for your day to day essentials, it’s only a five minute drive to Brighouse or Elland where you will find a large variety of amenities. In Brighouse there is also a train station where you can also catch the train to Leeds and Manchester. If you want the quiet of a nature reserve on your doorstep during the week, and a house that can properly fill up with family at the weekend, this is a rare chance to have both.
