A rare Edwardian six-bedroom home set over multiple floors with panoramic views over Whaley Bridge. Spacious reception rooms, high ceilings and period detailing combine with practical updates such as double glazing (fitted post-2002) and a modern gas central heating system. The plot includes well-maintained terraced gardens, mature fruit trees, a greenhouse, off-road parking for several cars and a detached garage.
The house suits a growing or extended family seeking generous living space and countryside outlook within easy reach of village amenities and rail links. Accommodation spans three principal floors plus cellar space and generous loft bedrooms with Velux windows, offering flexibility for home offices, hobbies or guest space. The elevated position delivers privacy and attractive rural views across the valley.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold (long lease remaining) with a nominal ground rent of £5 and an expensive council tax band, so running costs should be expected to reflect its size and status. External walls are traditional sandstone/limestone with no known insulation (assumed), and broadband speeds are average — worth checking if high-capacity home working is required.
Overall this home offers character, scope and a generous garden in a very affluent, low-crime village setting. Buyers who value period charm, space and outdoor living will find strong appeal, while those seeking fully modernised thermal performance or the cheapest running costs should factor in potential upgrading work.
