Set on Croft Street in Idle, this period 1890 Victorian stone semi-detached home blends timeless character with the practical comforts that make everyday life feel effortless. From the moment you arrive, the kerb appeal and traditional stone frontage set the tone for what's inside: a warm, welcoming house with space to grow into and details you'll love coming home to. (EPC and Floor Plan to follow shortly).

Step through the front door into the feature hallway, where the sense of proportion and heritage is immediately apparent. Two reception rooms give you the flexibility to shape the home around your lifestyle, one with a gas stove and the other with an open fire, whether you're dreaming of a calm lounge for cosy evenings, a separate space for entertaining friends, or a second room that works beautifully as a dining room, reading snug or home office.
To the rear, the kitchen diner is the heart of the home, offering a sociable setting for morning coffees, family meals and relaxed hosting. There's also the benefit of a downstairs cloaks and shower, ideal for busy households, guests, or simply adding that extra layer of convenience to day-to-day routines.
Upstairs, you'll find three double bedrooms, each offering generous space for restful nights, dressing areas or working-from-home needs without compromise. The family bathroom completes the first floor, creating a well-balanced layout that works as well for couples as it does for families.
Throughout, sash wood double glazed windows retain the home's period charm while helping with comfort and efficiency, and gas central heating is provided via a modern condensing combi-boiler. Outside, front and rear gardens offer space to unwind, garden, or create a safe play area, while off road parking adds a practical touch that's always appreciated.
The location is another strong draw, with supermarkets, schools, leisure facilities and healthcare all within easy reach, making day-to-day errands and routines straightforward. For commuters and weekend plans, rail links at Apperley Bridge station are also conveniently accessible, keeping you well connected.
If you're looking for a period character home with genuine space, original features, this is one that truly stands out. Must be viewed to appreciate.
