Spacious period home with expansive gardens and farmland views, ideal for family life.
Four double bedrooms and three bathrooms including two en suites
Set on Main Road in the heart of Eyam, Thorn House is a substantial four-double-bedroom Victorian semi with sweeping views over adjoining farmland and distant Peak District horizons. The house combines period character—high ceilings, sash windows and stone fireplaces—with a large open-plan dining kitchen, three reception rooms and modern conveniences such as mains gas heating and underfloor heating in parts. The plot approaches a quarter of an acre with a long cobbled driveway, generous parking and a sizable detached garage.
The large, south-facing rear garden is a major selling point: primarily level lawns, specimen trees, raised vegetable beds, summer house, greenhouse and direct backing onto open fields for privacy and rural outlook. Interior accommodation is flexible for family life: master suite plus two further en suites, a study ideal for home working and attic areas for storage or occasional use. The property sits within a peaceful village with good primary and secondary schools and amenities, all inside the Peak District National Park.
Buyers should note a few practical points. The stone external walls are original (sandstone/limestone) and assumed to lack cavity insulation; double glazing is present but install date is unknown. The property is sizeable and in a conservation-sensitive area, so maintenance and heating costs can be higher than for smaller modern homes. Measurements and services have not been tested; prospective purchasers are strongly advised to commission a full survey, service checks and to verify exact sizes and energy performance before committing.
Overall this is a character-rich family home with immediate livability and strong potential for incremental improvement. It will suit families seeking village life with countryside access, buyers who prize generous outdoor space, or those wanting a period house that already offers many modern comforts.
