Description
A truly exceptional piece of Yorkshire history…
Hartley Royd is a magnificent Grade II Listed detached Yeoman's farmhouse, believed to date back as far as 1587, and is coming to the open market for only the second time in almost 100 years. Set within approximately 6 acres of private grounds, the property enjoys an enviable countryside setting with unparalleled views, beautifully landscaped gardens, a pond, walled kitchen garden, woodland and grazing land. Inside, this remarkable home offers five reception rooms, kitchen, utility room, seven bedrooms, four bathrooms, a vaulted cellar and two large attic rooms offering a wealth of potential uses. The principal bedroom benefits from both a dressing room and en-suite bathroom. The property has previously been featured in both the UK and US editions of The English Home Magazine, highlighting its exceptional character and architectural importance.
And there's more…
Two turbines are situated within the grounds, currently meeting the property's energy demands whilst also providing a sizable income stream.
Despite its wonderfully secluded rural setting, Hartley Royd is only a short drive from the hugely popular tourist destination of Hebden Bridge, making this a truly unique opportunity to enjoy the best of Yorkshire countryside whilst remaining within easy reach of local amenities. Todmorden is on the main line between Manchester 25mins and Leeds 60mins.
A home of immense character, history and scale — and quite simply, one that rarely comes to the market.
