Two homes, 2.4 acres and dramatic Peak District views — flexible rural living.
Two dwellings with full residential status, flexible use
A rare Peak District barn conversion dating from 1650, arranged as two independent dwellings with full residential status and no occupancy restrictions. Set in about 2.4 acres, the property delivers exceptional privacy, far-reaching views of Hen Cloud and The Roaches, and flexible living for extended family use, rental income or reconfiguration into a single substantial house.
Both units are well presented and retain character features such as exposed sandstone walls, stone hearths and pitched roofs, while benefiting from modern fittings in the principal kitchens and bathrooms. Field House Cottage has a proven holiday-let history, adding immediate income potential for investors or those wanting part-occupancy to subsidise running costs.
Buyers should note practical considerations associated with rural living: heating is oil-fired with a Worcester boiler and Megaflo cylinder, water is supplied from a private borehole with filtration, and drainage is to a septic tank. Broadband speeds are very slow and the site is remote—excellent for privacy but less convenient for high-speed connectivity and some services.
Outdoor space is a key asset: gated gravel drive, Indian stone patios, extensive lawns, mature trees, garage and outbuildings. The scale of the plot offers scope for landscaping, equestrian or small-scale agricultural uses, but will demand ongoing maintenance given its size and woodland edges.
