FIVE-BEDROOM STONE-BUILT HOME WITH BESPOKE FINISHES AND FAR-REACHING COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS
Constructed around 27 years ago by the current owners, 81 Brighouse and Denholme Road is a substantial stone-built detached residence combining traditional character with impressive craftsmanship and modern family living. Built using reclaimed stone from a historic mill in Keighley, the home has been carefully designed with generous proportions, high ceilings, and exceptional bespoke joinery throughout - including fitted wardrobes, vanity units, and integrated storage. Beautiful mullion windows frame uninterrupted views across the surrounding countryside, while thoughtful upgrades in recent years - including a new boiler, a renovated family bathroom, extensive redecoration, and newly installed timber bifold doors opening onto the garden - ensure the home is both stylish and superbly maintained.
INSIDE THE HOME
GROUND FLOOR
PORCH
A welcoming entrance porch leading through into the main hallway.
ENTRANCE HALL
The entrance hall immediately reflects the generous proportions found throughout the home, with high ceilings enhancing the sense of space. Bespoke radiator covers, plush carpets, and elegant finishes create a refined first impression, while useful under-stairs storage provides practicality.
The hall, stairs, and landing were redecorated in 2025 with new lighting and carpets installed, further enhancing the sense of quality on arrival.
WC
A stylish contemporary cloakroom updated in 2025, featuring an Imex WC, wash basin set upon a standing cupboard unit, and a heated towel rail.
LIVING ROOM
A beautifully proportioned reception room enjoying a dual-aspect outlook. A bay window to the front captures far-reaching views across surrounding fields, while mullion windows overlook the rear garden.
At the centre of the room, a solid fuel open fireplace set within an attractive stone surround creates a striking focal point, complemented by decorative cornicing and high ceilings which enhance the feeling of space.
OPEN-PLAN KITCHEN AND DINING AREA
Designed as the heart of the home, this impressive open-plan space is ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining.
Timber flooring runs throughout, while a bay window to the front enjoys the same countryside views found throughout the property. A large central island incorporates drawer and base units, a sink and drainer, electrical points, and seating for at least four people, creating a sociable breakfast bar.

- BOSCH extractor hood (replaced in 2024)

LANDING
A spacious landing area featuring decorative cornicing, bespoke radiator covers, and elegant archways leading to different sections of the floor.
The loft above benefits from a fully structural floor - with electricity and plumbing already available - offering excellent potential to create additional living accommodation subject to the necessary consents.
FAMILY BATHROOM
Fully renovated in 2023, the family bathroom is finished to an exceptional contemporary standard. Grey slate-effect flooring is paired with striking matt black fixtures and fittings throughout.
The space includes a bath with Francis Pegler taps, a double-width shower finished with distinctive viridian blue tiles, a floating WC, and a double-width sink set above a floating drawer unit. Recessed wall shelving, a heated towel rail, and an illuminated mirror complete the design.
PRINCIPAL BEDROOM SUITE
A spacious and beautifully finished principal bedroom with mullion windows framing spectacular uninterrupted countryside views.
The room features extensive bespoke fitted furniture including wardrobes, drawers, cupboards, and a vanity desk with mirrored cupboards. A built-in walnut headboard with matching side tables complements the calming sage green d?cor.

GARDENS AND GROUNDS
The property sits behind a newly installed tarmacadam driveway with timber sleeper edging and fencing (2025), providing generous off-road parking and access to the integral garage, which benefits from an automated door installed in 2024.
A pathway leads from the driveway around to the rear of the property.
The south-facing garden provides an ideal space for relaxing and entertaining. A flagged patio terrace sits directly outside the house, perfectly positioned for alfresco dining or enjoying a morning coffee in the sun.
Beyond the patio lies a lawned garden with a tiered rockery planted with established shrubs, adding colour and structure. Additional features include a greenhouse shed and an outdoor tap.
Boundary hedges were also cut back in 2025, opening up the outlook and enhancing the surrounding countryside views to the front of the property.

PROPERTY UPDATES AND FINISHES
The property has been carefully maintained and upgraded in recent years, including the installation of a new boiler in 2022, a full renovation of the family bathroom in 2023, and extensive redecoration with new carpets to the hall, stairs and landing in 2025. Around 80% of the double-glazed units have been replaced over the past four years, while further improvements include the addition of timber bifold garden doors, a new driveway with sleeper edging, and a contemporary downstairs WC.
These thoughtful updates ensure the home is presented to an excellent standard while preserving the craftsmanship and character created by the original build.
