4 bedroom detached house for sale

Hidden quietly beside a gently flowing beck and surrounded by mature woodland, Troy Mill Cottage is one of those rare homes that feels wonderfully tucked away from the world, yet remains only moments from the heart of Horsforth. It is a setting that offers something increasingly hard to find: true tranquillity, the sound of running water, and a daily connection to nature, while cafés, schools, the train station and Leeds commuter links remain close at hand. Having previously secured buyers who unfortunately withdrew for personal reasons, the property now returns to the market with a full survey and supporting information available, allowing the next purchaser to proceed with confidence. For those seeking something distinctive, peaceful and a little unexpected within Horsforth, this is a home well worth discovering.

The sense of space and light portrayed in this house is apparent as soon as you step inside the front door, where the 17th century orginal cottage meets the contempory and stylish extension (or comparable proportions to its original counterpart).

The ground floor of Troy Mill Cottage offers an impressive and versatile layout, thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining. At its heart lies a stunning open-plan kitchen and dining space, featuring sleek contemporary finishes and bi-fold doors that open directly onto a generous elevated terrace. From here, the outlook is truly special—overlooking a gently bubbling beck and surrounded by woodland, it’s a peaceful setting that invites calm and relaxation along-side nature, or is perfect for hosting friends in the summer!

Complementing the modern kitchen space is the beautiful 17th Century cosy living room, complete with a characterful wood-burning stove—perfect for quiet evenings in. A third reception room, in the old section of the house, currently serves as a games room but offers flexibility for use as a snug, playroom, home office or formal dining room. Practicality is added by way of a stylish WC and a spacious basement utility room.

The first floor continues to impress. In the sympathetically renovated wing, two generous double bedrooms retain a sense of heritage and warmth, while the bold, design-led family bathroom brings a touch of fun and flair—stylishly appointed and beautifully spacious it includes a free standing bath and seperate walk in shower. Fantastic for busy mornings before school or a relaxing soak at the end of the day!

To the newer side of the home, the principal suite is a true sanctuary. Floor-to-ceiling glass vista windows frame serene woodland views, flooding the room with natural light and creating a sense of space and calm. A sleek en-suite bathroom and a well-appointed adjoining dressing room, add both luxury and practicality. Completing the upper floor is a further double bedroom, also en-suite, awash with natural light from overhead Velux windows and with direct access to its own private balcony—a perfect spot for morning coffee or unwinding on an evening.

Externally, this stunning home offers a wonderful balance of style, privacy and natural beauty. A generous lawned area at the lower level provides a versatile recreation space—ideal for play or for relaxing while taking in the idyllic surroundings. With views stretching across the beck and into mature woodland, the setting is nothing short of enchanting.

A spacious terrace extends directly from the main living area, offering the perfect spot for outdoor entertaining or peaceful evenings beneath the trees. Practicality is equally well considered, with secure off-street parking for four vehicles and EV charging.

Altogether, the outdoor offering is as impressive as the interior: thoughtfully arranged, beautifully presented, and seamlessly connected to its natural setting.
