Summary - 73 RAVENSDALE COTTAGES CRESSBROOK BUXTON SK17 8SX
1 bed 1 bath Cottage
Charming one-bed bolthole ideal for holiday rental or countryside retreat.
Grade II listed stone cottage dating c.1823
This Grade II listed stone cottage, dating c.1823, sits in the Peak District National Park and offers authentic period character and countryside views. The compact layout — living room, kitchen, double bedroom with loft access and bathroom — suits a single occupant, holiday use or a rental let. An enclosed rear garden and stone storage shed provide outdoor space and useful storage.
The cottage’s heritage status and location are strong value drivers for short‑stay rental or a character purchase, but listed status brings responsibilities and potential additional repair costs. The property is small (c.395 sqft) and will require sensitive updating to meet modern comfort standards while respecting listed‑building constraints.
Practical considerations include limited heating (room heaters and wood‑burning fuel), no mobile signal, very slow broadband and a medium flood risk — all factors that affect holiday‑let appeal and long‑term living convenience. Buyers should budget for possible improvements to insulation, services and listed‑compliant repairs.
Overall, this is a characterful, well‑located cottage for a buyer wanting a countryside bolt‑hole or an investor targeting steady holiday income, provided they accept the maintenance obligations and modest living space.
