Drake Hill Cottage is a barn conversion located in Cumberworth, Kirklees, West Yorkshire. The property is presented in excellent condition throughout and benefits from a modern fitted kitchen and bathrooms. The property also benefits from exposed beams and a feature fireplace adding character. Externally the property offers ample off-road parking and a good sized garden. There is also a stable block and menage.

The average house price in the area is £376,409, significantly lower than the asking price of £925,000. However, this property is a unique barn conversion, and comparable properties in the area are limited. Nearby properties, while not directly comparable in terms of size or type, show a range of prices from £280,000 to £1,495,000. The lack of plot size information makes a precise price per square foot calculation impossible, but considering the property’s condition, features, and the higher end of nearby property prices, the asking price may be justified.

The location is rural but with relatively easy access to nearby towns and transport links. Several schools are within a reasonable distance, offering various Ofsted ratings.

Given the information, the property appears to be in excellent condition, and the location offers a balance of rural tranquility and accessibility. The price, while high compared to the area average, seems more reasonable when considering the unique nature of the property and the higher-end properties in the vicinity. The land appears to be substantial, including a stable block and menage, adding considerable value.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
