Set at the head of a quiet cul-de-sac in the Peak District National Park, this detached natural stone bungalow occupies a commanding position with distant views to Chatsworth House and the surrounding parkland. Generous, mature gardens and a gated third-of-an-acre grazing field deliver privacy, outdoor space and direct access to adjacent woodland and popular walking routes.
The house retains quality mid‑century features — large picture windows, terrazzo floors in parts and built‑in storage — and offers spacious principal rooms, a large tandem double garage and plentiful parking. Heating is mains gas with a Johnson & Starley warm air/boiler arrangement; double glazing is fitted (installation date unknown).
Important considerations: the property will be sold at auction (14 October 2025) and purchasers must register in advance; a documentation charge of £1,500 (inc VAT) applies on completion. Built c.1976–82 with assumed partial cavity insulation, the bungalow likely needs updating to contemporary standards and buyers should commission surveys and service reports. Council tax is described as expensive.
This home will suit a downsizer or buyer seeking single‑storey living in an affluent village setting with exceptional outdoor space and views. It also offers renovation potential for anyone wanting to sympathetically refresh a mid‑century stone bungalow in a sought‑after Peak District location.
