A place where the charm of period living intertwines seamlessly with modern convenience, Toothill Cottage stands proudly on a substantial plot, framed by gardens that soak up every drop of the sun. Set within the popular area of Rastrick, this three-bedroom stone-built semi-detached home promises a life of peaceful beauty without sacrificing connectivity.
Wander up the gated driveway, where mature trees whisper in the breeze and dappled light dances across the stone. Here, parking is plentiful, with space for six or more vehicles, a car port and a two-storey garage annexe that hints at endless possibilities.
Step inside and be greeted by a warm, light-filled entrance. The living dining kitchen, a heart of the home, unfurls before you — an open-plan delight where shaker-style cabinetry meets a Belfast sink and range cooker. A central island invites chatter and laughter over shared glasses of wine.
The sitting area is wrapped in natural light from dual-aspect windows. It offers the cosiest spot for armchairs and good company, opening effortlessly through French doors into the conservatory, where every pane frames the lush gardens beyond. This sun-drenched space is perfect for afternoon reading or evening drinks under the glow of the setting sun.
Beyond, the sitting room awaits — a sanctuary for winter evenings. Exposed wooden beams stretch overhead, an imitation wood-burning stove within a stone fireplace offers warmth and invites you to relax and stay awhile.
The dining room offers yet another space to gather, where the golden light of sunset spills through dual-aspect windows and dances across the table, encouraging slow, delicious meals and easy conversation.
Completing the ground floor is a well-appointed WC, practical storage and a thoughtful flow that makes daily life effortless.
Climb the stairs and find yourself on a landing where light and space blend beautifully. Here, an open hallway currently serves as an office, ideal for those embracing remote working, with a peaceful view across the gardens.
The principal suite is a retreat in itself. With dual-aspect windows, a private hallway and a dressing area lined with mirrored wardrobes, it whispers luxury at every turn. The en-suite completes the experience, offering a four-piece suite where you can soak away the day’s cares, looking out to the gardens beyond.
Two further double bedrooms await — one with a view to the front and fitted wardrobes wrapping two sides, the other peeking onto the side courtyard, complete with a storage closet and generous proportions.
The spacious family bathroom sits centrally, tiled in soft neutrals, with a walk-in shower, wash hand basin and WC. Everything has been carefully designed to combine beauty with functionality, ensuring a calm start and end to every day.
Above, the loft offers untapped potential. Already fitted with a window, it could easily transform into additional bedrooms or a creative studio, should you wish.
Step outside and breathe deep — the gardens here are something truly special. A large lawn stretches out, framed by mature trees and boundary hedging, offering rare privacy and the perfect spot for children to run free, for picnics in the summer or simply lying back and watching the clouds drift by.
To the front and side, a raised decking area with glass balustrades offers a wonderful stage for entertaining, overlooking the lawn and complete with a tranquil pond. Here, mornings begin with coffee in the sunshine and evenings end with laughter under the stars.
Beyond the lawn, a private allotment awaits, bathed in sunlight and ripe with possibilities. Greenhouses and beds stand ready for planting, a haven for those who find peace with their hands in the soil.
At the far end, the two-storey garage and annexe rise, a robust structure with five separate rooms, fitted with power and plumbing. Ideal for storage, it could easily become a home office, a studio or a self-contained annexe for guests or older children.
Backing onto a charming courtyard shared with a handful of properties, Toothill Cottage offers the best of both worlds — a sense of community coupled with a feeling of privacy and space that’s becoming ever rarer.
Perfectly positioned to access Huddersfield, Brighouse and the surrounding areas, this home is a commuter’s dream yet feels a world apart.
This is not just a house. It is a home designed for living, loving and making memories that last a lifetime.
Whether your home is on the market, or you're just thinking about selling, we'd love to help.
