About this property

Agent Reference TS0571

This Former Post Office Was Once At The Heart Of Village Life. It Still Is. Fully upgraded with a lovely shaker kitchen, underfloor heating and shuttered sash windows. A stylish stone cottage next to the Malthouse - with a private suntrap garden so good you won’t need their beer garden. 

There's something about a home with a real story, where the building has been part of how a community works for generations. This was once where Rishworth came to send its letters, collect its parcels and catch up on the news. That kind of history doesn't leave a place.

It may no longer be serving the Rishworth community but what it has now, is just as valuable. The current owners have upgraded every room with genuine care, and it shows.

The kitchen is the heart of it, shaker units, solid oak worktops, a patterned tile splashback and underfloor heating underfoot. There's a built-in oven and hob, space for all the appliances you need, and a dining table that fits naturally into the room. 

The sitting room has the same quality feel. Its a lovely spacious room and the original fireplace has been upgraded with a wood-burning stove. The tartan carpet leading up to the first floor (which matches the fitted carpets elsewhere) is a small detail that tells you a lot about how this home has been put together.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is a large double, open to full ceiling height with exposed timber beams, a full-height panelled feature wall in grey and shuttered sash windows looking out over the treetops. There are also two sets of full height bespoke fitted wardrobes.

The second bedroom works best as a home office or nursery - it's compact but the current owners have made it a very functional workspace.

The shower room has been recently upgraded, its fully tiled and fitted with a walk-in enclosure, a basin and a WC. It’s stylish clean and modern. 

Outside, the courtyard garden that sits at the side is a genuine surprise. Indian stone paving on two levels, a seating area that catches the sun for most of the day, flowering shrubs climbing the walls and a large storage shed. The owners call it a suntrap and they're not wrong.

Rishworth itself is a friendly village with plenty going on. And neighbouring Ripponden is only a 15-20 minute stroll or a short car journey.

The Malthouse is next door - a popular eatery with a beer garden of its own, though with your private suntrap garden you may find you need it less than you'd expect. 

Turner’s farm shop is just a short drive down the road, next to a café and Indian restaurant and the M62 is about five minutes away - making Leeds, Manchester and Halifax all very workable as a daily commute.

This former post office was once at the heart of village life. It still is - just for one lucky buyer now.
