Live like a lord – in a Chelford at Belvedere, Keighley!

Posted on January 20th, 2021

Catch yourself  dreaming about country estates? The social whirl! The chance of catching a glimpse of the Duke of Hastings on horseback….!

Who hasn’t fantasised about living a lavish 19th century Bridgerton  lifestyle? Especially right now, when we’re locked down, cooped up and hemmed in.

We can’t promise you a handsome aristocrat. But we do have a place in the country to whet your appetite: a home for the discerning housebuyer at our beautiful Belvedere development near Keighley.

Built on the site of Grade 2 listed  Malsis Hall , Belvedere is one of Seddon Homes’ most picturesque locations.  It’s accessed via a tree-lined driveway past the original gate lodge and it’s set in acres of beautiful Yorkshire woodland and countryside.

We’ve got a property in mind for you – newly available and one of the final releases at this magical development. So come and meet The Chelford on Plot 8. With four bedrooms, a south west-facing garden and views to die for – this is the home and the landscape you were born to inhabit!  

Outside, the Chelford is ruggedly traditional, with an attractive stone exterior in keeping with the rural surroundings.  Inside, it’s a different story! Just take a look at the contemporary layout, which includes a lovely large kitchen/dining room with space galore for cooking, dining and relaxing. There’s a breakfast bar too – for easygoing catch-ups with friends. And the hand built kitchen units and top-of-the-range kitchen units are all included as standard.

Next door, the spacious lounge is a fabulous family room, with French doors leading out to the rear garden. There is also a downstairs WC and useful store cupboard.

The master bedroom, on the first floor, is a stunning grown up space. Fit for a duchess (and her duke!), it features mirrored sliding wardrobes and a luxurious en suite with rainfall shower. There is a further double bedroom, two generous singles and a well-designed family bathroom. 

You certainly won’t be cooped up indoors at Belvedere! The charms of this country estate have been retained for the enjoyment of 21st-century residents, with secret walkways, waterfalls and shallow streams with rustic bridges to explore.

You can make like a member of the nobility too, because the beautiful Malsis staterooms and chapel have been refurbished and can be hired out for special occasions. The grand pavilion and nearby football pitches are also available for bookings.

There are local amenities nearby with shops, primary schools and country pubs in the pretty villages of Cross Hills and Glusburn. The larger schools and shops of Keighley and Skipton are a 15-minute drive away with frequent rail services to Bradford and Leeds from Keighley railway station.

You need to see the magic of Belvedere for yourself. So come and visit our show village – by appointment only. We’ve introduced stringent Mrs Hinch-style cleaning procedures and installed enhanced protective measures to ensure your safety when you visit.  Contact 0845 456 9603 to book an appointment and to find out more about the buying methods we have available, to help you make your move.
