This striking four-double-bedroom barn conversion sits in a secluded hamlet position on Glossop Road, SK6, with far-reaching countryside views and a generous plot of about 0.2 acres. The house balances original character — vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and decorative windows — with contemporary comforts such as a high-quality fitted kitchen, utility room and a log burner in the principal reception. The galleried landing and suspended walkway create a dramatic, light-filled entrance and connect the upstairs rooms with real presence.
The accommodation is arranged over multiple levels and suits family life and entertaining: a large open-plan living room with a picture window and bi-fold doors to the lawn, a kitchen with island and breakfast bar, plus separate utility and plenty of storage. The principal bedroom and a second bedroom both include dressing rooms; the master also benefits from a finished en-suite, while plumbing is already in place for a second en-suite if desired. Outdoors the lawned garden climbs gently to a covered dining area, with uninterrupted sun throughout the day and off-street parking behind double gates.
Practical considerations: broadband speeds are very slow in this isolated location and council tax is described as quite expensive. The property’s rural setting means a degree of ongoing maintenance for stone exteriors, garden and drive; buyers seeking a fully turnkey city-standard connection may need to accept compromises or investigate alternatives for faster internet. There is no flooding risk.
Overall, Lower Stirrup Barn will appeal to buyers looking for a character-filled, substantial family home or those wanting a peaceful countryside retreat with strong entertaining spaces and excellent privacy. Its size, plot and quality fittings present immediate liveability with scope to tailor upstairs plumbing and finishes further to personal taste.
