About Lonsdale House
This outstanding detached double fronted home retains original features and incorporates sympathetic replacements within the recent extensions, but displays tasteful modern design features making this a home appealing to those who favour both traditional and contemporary styling.

The current owners have extended and adapted this Edwardian family home, creating a very successful blend of period features and contemporary design; offering a flexible layout, spacious rooms and plenty of outside space. In particular it offers the chance to easily create an attractive and useful annexe, suitable for business premises, extended family accommodation or rented living space.

Lower Cumberworth village occupies an ideal geographical location, with easy access to the M1 motorway and a number of towns and cities. Denby Dale station is within walking distance for connections to Sheffield and Huddersfield.

The main house offers 4 bedrooms, 3 of which are large doubles. Two of these have en suite shower rooms. This area also has three large reception rooms, a sizeable kitchen and a useful 2 room basement. The more recent extensions are currently integrated into the house, but also provide the opportunity for a useful annexe, which would include a potential kitchen space, a large and airy lounge area, a flexible double bedroom / gym / office / play room / games room / cinema room and an office / sitting space. It would be relatively easy to add a shower room / WC as plumbing and drainage is already in place. The potential annexe includes areas on the floor plan marked as breakfast area, garden room, mezzanine and office / gym.

The property sits on a generous plot, with a long frontage and lovely, low-maintenance traditional front gardens and gated driveway parking for several vehicles.
