Set on the hillside of Werneth Low, this extensively renovated barn conversion offers dramatic panoramic views across the valley and toward the Pennines. The ground floor is arranged for everyday family life and entertaining, with an L-shaped lounge/diner, a timeless kitchen with island and full-width bi-fold doors, a snug/media room, a home office and a downstairs double bedroom with en-suite. Large glazed gables bring light and the view into the principal living spaces.
Upstairs the impressive master suite includes a substantial dressing area, a generous en-suite with roll-top bath and walk-in shower, and uninterrupted outlooks. Two further double bedrooms and a luxurious family bathroom complete the first floor. Practical features include a utility room with outside access, a detached garage, separate workshop/stables and parking for several cars.
The plot is a standout: very large, sunny and terraced to maximise the hillside position with paved patio, lawn, decked sun terrace and glass-fronted balcony ideal for al fresco dining. Environmentally, an air-source heat pump and EV charging point are already fitted, and broadband speeds are fast.
Points to note: the building is largely original stone construction (pre-1900) and was redesigned in 2012; some traditional walls are assumed to lack modern cavity insulation and may benefit from upgrading. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The hamlet is reached by a private road and mobile signal is average — good broadband mitigates remote working issues. The property is freehold and EPC rated C.
