About this property

Agent Reference TS0571

This Former Post Office Was Once At The Heart Of Village Life. It Still Is.

Fully upgraded with a lovely shaker kitchen, underfloor heating and shuttered sash windows. A stylish stone cottage next to the Malthouse - with a private suntrap garden so good you won’t need their beer garden.

There's something about a home with a real story, where the building has been part of how a community works for generations. This was once where Rishworth came to send its letters, collect its parcels and catch up on the news. That kind of history doesn't leave a place. It may no longer be serving the Rishworth community but what it has now, is just as valuable.

The agent hasn't said which band this home is in; you can look it up on GOV.UK. In Kirklees, 2026/27 bills run from £1,627 a year in band A to £4,882 in band H.

Figures from MHCLG (Open Government Licence v3): the average bill for each band across Kirklees, including the typical parish precept, so a parish's own bill can differ a little. Discounts lower the bill, such as 25% off for an adult living alone.
