A Victorian property dating back to the mid to late 19th century, Island View, Dewsbury, was built by the owners of Wormald and Walkers blanket factory and the featured property is believed to have belonged to one of the mill's managers. Situated at the end of a row of 8 properties, the house has beautiful views of the River Calder and an island in the middle of the river. It is next to what is now known as 'Dewsbury Oasis', a haven for local wildlife, where you can see swans, ducks, herons, Canada geese, cormorants, kingfishers, terrapins and, more recently-spotted, otters. The house has been extended over the years to include a fourth bedroom, large breakfast kitchen and utility room, but still retains many of its original features like picture rails and fireplaces in two of the downstairs rooms and three of the four bedrooms. The spacious property comprises entrance hall, family lounge, large sitting room/dining room, fitted kitchen with granite worktops and AGA cooker, cloakroom/WC and cellar. To the first floor are four bedrooms - three large doubles and a good sized fourth bedroom, a refitted modern family bathroom and additional separate WC. It has gas-fired central heating and double glazing. To the outside are gardens to the side and front, parking for up to five cars and a detached double garage. A perfect home for wildlife lovers, the house also backs onto woodland which is ideal for walking dogs.
