Are you looking for a bungalow, or a good sized home on one level? This ground floor apartment has the best of both worlds. It’s set within one of the region's most prestigious apartment complexes, Oats Royd Mill, and part the community, yet it has its own front door. It has the benefit of the features and facilities within the complex, but it has that degree of privacy, too. With two double bedrooms and a beautifully appointed kitchen, this apartment will surprise many. It’s surrounded by stunning countryside, and yet it’s on a bus route. One could argue that this is a home of contradictions, and we call it ‘the best of both worlds.’
Location - Oats Royd Mill is situated in the highly sought after Luddenden Village, close to Halifax, Sowerby Bridge and the tourist centre of Hebden Bridge each with a variety of amenities, bars and restaurants. Good local schools include Luddenden Primary School and Midgely School. There are railway stations in Halifax, Sowerby Bridge, Mytholmroyd and Hebden Bridge which all access the cities of Leeds, Bradford and Manchester. There is a bus stop immediately outside the gates, for access into Sowerby Bridge or Halifax.
Accommodation - The apartment is accessed via your own front door and you will come into this long entrance hall, and this will give you an immediate sense of the size of the apartment. The hallway provides access to all rooms, and there is a useful airing cupboard that provides some storage space. A large, open plan living space that extends into the kitchen area and narrows slightly to accommodate the doorway, as can be seen on the floor plan. There's plenty of space for lounge and dining furniture, and you could even choose how you want to configure the room, actually. The kitchen area is well fitted with a range of base and wall units. The base units sit beneath granite work surfaces that incorporate a sink unit with a mixer tap, and the integrated appliances include a hob beneath a canopy hood, an oven, a microwave, a fridge freezer, a dishwasher, and a washing machine. The wall units have underbuilt lighting to illuminate the work surfaces and give a nice glow to that part of the room. The principal bedroom (3.62m x 3.34m) is a double room that extends to 4.38 metres towards the doorway, as can be seen on the floor plan. There are a range of fitted wardrobes along one wall, and a door leads into the house bathroom in a Jack and Jill style. A good sized second bedroom (4.38m x 2.74m) that has plenty of room for freestanding furniture. The Jack and Jill style bathroom has doors from the main hallway and the principal bedroom. It is neatly fitted with a three piece suite that consists of a low level WC, a wash basin, and a bath with a shower above to a shower screen and tiled walls and floor.
Externally, there are communal gardens and seating areas around a large pond at the rear of the building. There is allocated car parking, in addition to visitor spaces, within the residents' gated parking area
