*OUR OWNERS COMMENTS*
The Crofts has been our wonderful family home for 41 years, we have reluctantly decided to downsize to allow the next growing family to create their own happy memories here, just like we have. This home has always been a safe and happy haven, for us, our family and friends, country living and yet in the middle of the lovely town of Horbury, with its many independent shops, restaurants and all amenities within walking distance. The house is steeped in local history, and for some time it was the home of Dr. John Baildon, the nephew of renowned architect John Carr. We were contacted by people from as far afield as Canada, to chat about their ancestors who were born here. We leave The Crofts with a heavy heart, but hope this will become a happy forever home for the next lucky family.
As the photographs demonstrate, the property sits within beautiful gardens and grounds, it has a fabulous paddock to the front and all measures approximately 2 acres. The setting truly needs to be seen to be fully appreciated, whilst close to the heart of Horbury and near the park there is an undeniable, high degree of privacy and it all faces in a Southerly direction. With two driveways, the home has a fabulous, gravelled driveway to the front of the home with turning circle and beautiful formal gardens add that area of quality which lies between the house and the field/paddock, to the side there is a delightful courtyard with a large number of useful outbuildings and a swimming pool which is in need of rejuvenation. There is also useful garaging and as previously mentioned, the gardens and grounds are accessed via two driveways, which give the home flexibility, both entrance ways are particularly private.
UPLIFT CLAUSEDue to the property standing in approximately 2 acres, it is perhaps wise to sell the property with an uplift clause. This property excludes the planning permission mentioned above, it simply refers to the paddock/field to the front of the house. This restricts this being developed without further payment to the current vendors, this 30% uplift clause would be in place for a 30 year period.
