Two‑bed farmhouse with barn and c.23 acres; major renovation and development potential.
Detached stone farmhouse with large detached barn
Moorside Farm is a detached two‑bed farmhouse set in around 23 acres with a large detached stone barn and far-reaching views towards the Manifold Valley. The property sits in a very rural, secluded hamlet on the edge of the Peak District National Park and offers genuine privacy and open countryside outlooks. It is offered freehold and with no upward chain.
The house is traditional stone construction (pre‑1900) and currently requires substantial modernisation throughout. Accommodation is simple: entrance porch, kitchen with pantry, living room, landing, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The plot includes lawned garden areas, two attached outbuildings, a large detached barn and extensive surrounding pasture — attractive for equestrian, smallholding or agricultural uses.
Practical realities include oil‑fired central heating, septic tank drainage, water from a private well and main electricity. Double glazing is present but install date is unknown; walls are likely solid stone with no insulation (assumed). Broadband is very slow and mobile signal average; the location is remote so daily commuting or working from home will need planning. There is potential to extend or convert the barn and farmhouse subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions, which will appeal to buyers seeking renovation or development projects.
This property will suit buyers who value space, rural lifestyle and scoping a project: smallholding owners, countryside buyers or investors with skills and budget for renovation. It is not suited to those seeking a move‑in ready home, fast internet or urban convenience.
