About this property
Dating from circa 1650, this exceptional period home has been comprehensively renovated to create an exquisite blend of historic character and contemporary family living. Privately positioned and secluded from neighbouring properties, the home enjoys a wonderfully peaceful setting within beautifully established gardens, yet remains conveniently placed for everyday life, with easy access to the A6 and the shops, independent businesses, restaurants and other amenities of nearby Chapel-en-le-Frith. The property retains an abundance of original features including exposed stonework, ornate timber beams, vaulted ceilings and a feature stone fireplace, while offering generous and versatile accommodation. The welcoming entrance hall leads to a characterful living room, a superb open-plan kitchen and dining room with bespoke cabinetry and a gas Aga as a prominent feature, a utility room and a versatile ground-floor snugg/study and WC. To the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes and en-suite, together with a stylish family bathroom.
Outside, the property enjoys an exceptional degree of privacy, with landscaped gardens extending around the house and framed by mature trees, established planting and traditional dry-stone walls, creating a secluded rural feel despite its excellent accessibility. A generous stone-paved terrace provides an idyllic space for outdoor dining and entertaining, while lawns and secluded garden areas offer plenty of room for relaxation and family life. A long stone-gravel driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a substantial detached former Coach House, currently providing generous double garaging and workshop space with its own independent electrical supply and electric vehicle charging point. Above, a remarkable vaulted first-floor space with exposed stone walls and natural light offers exciting potential for guest accommodation or a holiday let, subject to the necessary planning consents, making this a particularly versatile and distinctive country home with the rare combination of privacy, character and convenient access to Chapel-en-le-Frith and the wider High Peak.
