## Description

The "Must-See" Masterpiece on Bowland Close, Honley - Forget everything you know about new builds. This is high-end design meets modern living. If you're tired of "beige" and "cookie-cutter" homes, pull up a chair. Constructed in 2022, this 3-bedroom semi-detached beauty still has 6 years of NHBC warranty remaining, but the current owners have transformed it into a maximalist marvel. It's vibrant, it's luxurious, and it's arguably the coolest house on the street.

The Grand Entrance & Ground Floor

The moment you step through the door, you know you're somewhere special. The hallway features stunning period-style floor tiles that set the tone for the rest of the house.

To the front, there's a dedicated home office—but not as you know it. Currently housing a piano against a dramatic deep-plum feature wall with floral accents, it's a creative sanctuary. You'll also find a downstairs WC that is a design destination in its own right, with rustic bronze-effect tiling and vintage-inspired wallpaper.

The real heart of the home lies at the back. The Open Plan Kitchen/Family/Dining Room is a showstopper. The kitchen is sleek and contemporary with integrated appliances, but it's the "living" side of the room that steals the show. Bathed in light from the large bay with French doors, this space flows effortlessly out to the garden. Whether you're hosting a dinner party or lounging on a Sunday morning, this is where you can relax and enjoy the sun.

The First Floor: The Midnight Lounge & Boutique Luxury

The first floor is home to the Main Lounge, and wow, what a space. Drenched in a rich, sophisticated raspberry-red from floor to ceiling, it's the ultimate "evening" room. With twin windows and gorgeous wood-effect flooring, it's cozy, chic, and completely unique.

Also on this floor is Bedroom 1. This is a master suite that rivals any boutique hotel, featuring bespoke fitted wardrobes and a private en-suite that's been given the "luxe" treatment—think contrasting pink and green tiles, black hardware, and a gorgeous scalloped washbasin.

The Second Floor: Space & Style

The top floor is home to two further double bedrooms, tucked under the eaves for that architectural feel. Bedroom 2 is a dramatic, mood-filled space with a stunning floral feature wall—perfect for guests or a growing family. Bedroom 3 is currently utilized as a dream-worthy dressing room and creative studio. Flooded with light from twin Velux windows, it features wall-to-wall fitted wardrobes and bold, eclectic décor. Between them lies the Family Bathroom. Let's pause for a second. With its Victorian style freestanding bath, monochrome checkered tiling, and bold floral wallpaper, it is the ultimate sanctuary.

Step Outside: Your South-Facing Oasis

The private, south-facing rear garden has been meticulously landscaped. It's a curated oasis of gravel pathways, lush planters, and a patio area that's a total sun-trap. Because it faces south, you get the best of the Yorkshire sun from breakfast through to evening drinks whilst being able to enjoy the pond less waterfall and its relaxing sound. To the front, you've got off-road parking for two cars on a tidy block-paved driveway with open views of a landscaped area. 

This isn't just a house; it's a piece of art. Grab your phone and book a viewing 24/7 before someone else snaps up this Honley gem!
