About this property
Set within one of Hebden Bridge's most iconic canal-side positions, this exceptional period residence presents a rare opportunity to acquire not simply a home, but a piece of the town's architectural story. Instantly recognisable by its striking red door and elegant stone façade, the former Counting House, also known as Cottonstones, dates back to the early 1800s and occupies an enviable setting overlooking the canal, parkland and rolling Calder Valley hills beyond. Beautifully restored and thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, the property effortlessly displays heritage character and contemporary comfort.
