Ivy Cottage is a traditional four-bedroom detached home set within the Peak District National Park, offering characterful living in a quiet hamlet. The stone exterior, exposed beams and oak floors combine with modern fittings — including an Everhot cooker, multiple en-suite bathrooms and a light-filled art studio — to create a versatile family home and creative retreat.
Ground-floor living is arranged for both everyday family life and entertaining: a contemporary living room with fireplace and French doors leads to the garden, while an adjacent snug and studio provide quiet work or hobby spaces. The kitchen and dining area are practical and attractive, with stone worktops, utility room and dual-aspect windows that bring countryside views inside.
Upstairs there are four bedrooms, three with en-suites and fitted wardrobes; the master benefits from exposed wooden beams and a luxurious en-suite shower. The large plot and landscaped gardens suit families who value outdoor space, with immediate access to walking and cycling in the surrounding valleys.
Important practical points: the house was constructed before 1900 with sandstone/limestone walls that are assumed to lack insulation, heating is oil-fired to radiators, and double glazing is present but install date is unknown. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal averages; council tax is described as expensive. These factors should be considered alongside the property’s rural appeal and low flood and crime risk.
