3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Howgate Road, Slaithwaite, Huddersfield HD7

This most impressive 3 bedroomed semi-detached home is situated on the edge of the highly regarded Empire Works development by sb Homes which is nicely located alongside the canal in the heart of the bustling village of Slaithwaite. The current owner purchased it from new around 4 years ago and you really wouldn’t know that it’s ever been lived in – it is immaculate, and some parts hardly used. The accommodation is laid out over 3 levels with the main living areas laid out in an open plan fashion. It has a gas fired central heating system with under floor heating to the ground floor and radiators to the other 2 levels. You’ll find a paved sitting area to the Howgate Road frontage with access down the side to the 2 parking spaces beyond the rear boundary. There is a good-sized stone flagged terrace at the rear which is enclosed by a dwarf stone wall topped with modern railings which allow views over Empire Way. Take just a short steady walk into the village and you will find an array of shops, bars, cafes, restaurants, train station, and a regular bus service.
