2 Bed Cottage For Sale

A Beautifully Restored Grade II Listed Cottage in the Sought-After Hamlet of Colden

Originally built around 1830, this charming Grade II listed cottage has been beautifully restored to blend historic character with modern comfort. Nestled in the picturesque hamlet of Colden, the property offers timeless appeal and easy access to the vibrant town of Hebden Bridge, while retaining a sense of peaceful countryside living.

On the approach, the property's classic stone façade and restored period details immediately convey its history and charm. With open countryside views to both the front and rear, it's easy to see why this area is so highly sought after. From here, it's a pleasant walk into the historic village of Heptonstall — home to cosy pubs and Mays shop for your everyday essentials (and perhaps a pie or two!) — while Hebden Bridge, with its independent shops, cafés, and restaurants, is just a short drive away. Excellent local schools and access to scenic walks on your doorstep make this an ideal setting for both relaxation and community life.

Ground Floor

Step through the restored external door into the inviting living room, where original features have been lovingly brought back to life.

The craftsmanship continues with the sympathetic restoration of the stone fireplace and addition of a multifuel stove — a focal point that celebrates the home's heritage while providing a comfortable retreat.

To the rear, the kitchen combines traditional style with contemporary practicality. The luxurious quartz worktops complement the Belfast sink, while the integrated appliances — including a dishwasher, washer-dryer, fridge-freezer, and microwave — are all less than two years old. Thoughtful details such as a useful pantry under the stairs make everyday living both elegant and efficient.
