Summary - GATE HOUSE LITTLE HUCKLOW BUXTON SK17 8RT
3 bed 1 bath Cottage
Spacious family home with studio, orchard and direct access to countryside.
Stone cottage in Peak District with wide, far‑reaching village views
Gate House is a limestone cottage in Little Hucklow, set within the Peak District and arranged over two floors with generous living space (about 1,683 sq ft). The ground floor centres on a sitting room with a stone fireplace and multi‑fuel stove, a bespoke kitchen with Aga and pantry, plus a conservatory linking to a stone‑paved courtyard. Period details throughout — exposed beams, stonework and original fireplaces — give the house authentic character. The property sits in large gardens with an orchard, greenhouse and productive vegetable plots, and enjoys wide, far‑reaching rural views.
Outside, a substantial detached stone garage provides power, lighting and loft storage, while a separate outbuilding offers a vaulted cellar and a first‑floor studio/home office with its own log burner. These outbuildings add useful workspace or guest accommodation, ideal for families needing home‑study space or hobbyists wanting storage and workshops. The hamlet location gives direct access to walking, cycling and other outdoor pursuits while remaining commutable to nearby towns; local schools include well‑regarded options and the property lies in Lady Manners catchment.
Buyers should note practical considerations: heating is currently by a multi‑fuel stove and portable electric heaters in most rooms, and the stone walls are assumed uninsulated. Glazing is double glazed but install date is unknown and the EPC is TBC. Council tax is above average for the area. These factors mean the house will benefit from targeted energy‑efficiency improvements and services updates to reduce running costs and enhance year‑round comfort.
For families seeking a characterful rural home with versatile outbuildings, productive gardens and easy access to Peak District countryside, Gate House offers substantial space and scope to personalise. The property is best suited to buyers comfortable with older stone construction and willing to invest in insulating and modernising services where desired.
