Delph House, Stainland Road, Holywell Green, Halifax, West Yorkshire, HX4

An exceptional, recently renovated five-bedroom detached residence commanding an enviable elevated position on Stainland Road. Delph House stands as a masterclass in modern family living, seamlessly balancing sophisticated, architectural design with substantial proportions across three beautifully appointed floors. Boasting an approximate total internal area of 290 m², this stone-built home offers panoramic valley views, four versatile reception rooms, and previously approved planning permission for a detached luxury leisure complex, representing an unparalleled lifestyle opportunity in the heart of Holywell Green.

The Ground Floor & Welcome

Upon entering the ground floor, you are greeted by a light-filled and remarkably spacious reception hallway featuring elegant contemporary flooring, crisp neutral decor, and a striking turn-staircase. This level has been intelligently configured to support independent guest accommodation or multi-generational living, anchored by a beautifully presented, generous double bedroom suite. This fifth bedroom benefits from its own private, modern en-suite shower room finished with bespoke mosaic tiling.

Positioned quietly toward the rear aspect is a dedicated home office or study, offering an ideal workspace for remote professionals complete with premium fitted storage possibilities. The practical needs of a busy household are effortlessly met by a highly functional utility room featuring an expansive work surface, an integrated sink unit, and direct plumbing for laundry appliances. Completing the ground floor layout is direct internal access to the expansive double garage, perfect for secure vehicle parking, a home workshop, or significant additional storage space.

First Floor: The Entertaining Hub

Ascending to the first floor, a spacious and impeccably styled galleried landing sets a sophisticated tone for the primary living quarters. Dressed in textured, high-quality wall coverings, this space acts as a central thoroughfare featuring a bright window framing the surrounding greenery and elegant glass-panelled double doors that open into the main family areas. To the front elevation, the principal formal sitting room is a triumph of space and light, featuring an elegant inset minimalist fireplace, plush grey carpeting, and dual windows that frame breathtaking, elevated views over the valley landscape. A separate, equally bright secondary lounge or snug provides excellent versatility for a growing family, working perfectly as a children's media room or a peaceful evening retreat.

Spanning an incredible 11.31 meters across the full width of the property is the mammoth open-plan dining kitchen, designed to maximize both grand-scale social gatherings and casual family dining. The kitchen is outfitted in a premium light-grey shaker style, beautifully complemented by solid granite-effect worktops, a multi-tonal tiled splash back, an integrated eye-level double oven, and a feature peninsula breakfast bar with an integrated media screen. It offers generous space for a large American-style fridge freezer and flows naturally into the dedicated dining area, which comfortably accommodates a ten-seat dining table amidst warm wood flooring and direct-access double doors. Accessed through elegant double-glazed internal doors is the orangery , an airy, window-wrapped space offering sweeping views of the tiered gardens and secondary outdoor dining options. This level is completed by a pristine guest cloakroom featuring a modern WC and an extended vanity washbasin.

Second Floor: Restful Quarters

The second-floor landing leads to four further remarkably scaled double bedrooms and the principal family bathroom, with the rooms featuring elegant ceiling slopes that add distinct architectural character to the upper level. Running the entire depth of the home is the magnificent master suite, a luxurious sanctuary of vast proportions that benefits from dual-aspect windows, an abundance of premium built-in wardrobes, matching chest units, a dedicated vanity or dressing desk area, and a private relaxation corner. Servicing this bedroom is an ultra-modern, fully tiled en-suite bathroom featuring stone-grey wall tiling, dark wood-effect flooring, a walk-in double shower with a rainfall head, a heated towel rail, and a sleek his-and-hers floating double vanity washbasin.

The remaining double bedrooms on this level are equally impressive, with bedrooms two and three boasting expansive modern sliding wardrobes, neutral carpets, and dual-aspect natural light. Bedroom four offers excellent proportions and is currently arranged with a single bed and freestanding mirrored wardrobe, demonstrating wonderful flexibility for use as a nursery, dressing room, or additional double bedroom. The upper level is completed by the sophisticated house bathroom, beautifully finished with a modern white panelled bath with an overhead shower attachment, clean white tiling with a detailed mosaic border, a chrome heated towel rail, and a large Velux window that floods the room with natural light.

Grounds, Gardens & Future Potential

The exterior spaces of Delph House are just as impressive as its interior, set on a substantial, expertly tiered plot that optimizes both absolute privacy and exceptional outdoor entertaining viewpoints. Set back proudly behind an attractive stone boundary wall, a sweeping tarmacadam driveway provides an abundance of off-road parking for multiple vehicles and leads directly to the integrated double garage. Secure timber fencing provides gated side access for convenience, while a block-paved crescent contours the front entrance of the home.

Steps lead around to a magnificent side and rear courtyard laid with premium Indian flagstone paving. Embraced by natural stone retaining walls and features, this expansive terrace includes a sheltered outdoor lounge area directly accessed via the orangery's double doors, making it the perfect setting for summer evenings and al fresco dining. A sweeping flight of stone stairs with custom safety balustrades leads gracefully from the patio to the extensive upper garden level, which opens up to a vast, secure lawn bordered by established drystone walls, mature trees, and vibrantly planted flowerbeds. Looking back toward the house from this upper crest underscores its proud architectural profile, framed beautifully by manicured shrubs.

Drone photography further emphasizes how cleanly the property sits within its private site envelope. As outlined by the precise redline layout, the estate is perfectly arranged to frame long-distance valley views while remaining fully enclosed and secure. A unique premium feature of this property is the fully approved planning permission for a detached garden building, designed to sit comfortably within the upper garden tier, housing a luxury indoor swimming pool, home gym, and sunroom, with approved architectural drawings available to view at the conclusion of the listing.

Our favourite part
Architecturally, it’s a brilliant piece of design. You have the ultimate open-plan, high-energy family hub spanning the entire width of the house, but just across the landing, you can shut the doors to the formal sitting room or the snug for complete, quiet isolation. It’s the perfect blend of grand scale and cozy sanctuary.
