Our corner of Yorkshire isn't just home to some of the most beautiful scenery in the country - it's also the perfect place to splash the cash on a luxury des res.

Binns Wood, Holmfirth, is on the market for an eye watering £1,395,000 - but one look inside and you can see why.

It was once home to photographer James Bamforth, began making silent films in 1898 - eventually spearheading a film industry in West Yorkshire which was said to surpass Hollywood in terms of productivity and originality. But his company is perhaps better known for the production of seaside postcards, producing more than 50,000 designs.

And Bamforth has left his mark on the house in the form of original drawings which decorate the walls of the bathroom.

Sitting in extensive grounds and 10 acres of woodland, the five-bedroom family home lies at the end of a sweeping, tree-lined driveway, which is tucked away behind a stone pillared entrance.

The entrance hallway and landing are decorated with original timber panelling. The hall leads to a downstairs WC, drawing room, dining room with original window seats and snug.

The entrance hall opens into the modern living kitchen, which leads to the utility room, garage, store room and garage workshop.

The lower ground floor has a living area which could be converted into a gym; a store room, coal store and wine cellar, and leads to the leisure suite, which hosts a 36ft x 18ft heated swimming pool, jacuzzi, shower rooms, changing rooms and a bar and kitchen area.

Bedrooms two, three and four and a small bathroom are off the first floor landing, which then leads to the master suite with balcony and en-suite bathroom. The annexe is accessed via the first floor, and hosts a bedroom, bathroom, sitting area and dressing and study area.
