WHAT THE OWNERS SAY
"We’ve really loved living here. The cosy living room with the woodburner is our go-to spot in autumn and winter, it makes the house feel so warm and inviting. The dining room and off-shot kitchen have been great for hosting dinner parties with close friends, and the garden is our little retreat, whether it’s coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening after work.
We’ve also loved the location, The Blake and The Blind Monkey are our favourite pubs, and at weekends we often head to Aesthete or Gerry’s Bakery for brunch. Being so close to Rivelin Valley has been brilliant, and it’s only a short drive to Ladybower and Damflask, which we visit whenever we fancy getting out into the Peaks.”
Stepping inside through the front door, you’re welcomed into a warm and inviting living room. The chimneybreast, complete with a woodburning stove, provides a charming focal point, while there’s plenty of space to arrange seating and enjoy cosy evenings in front of the fire.
At the back of the house, the generous dining room is ideal for both everyday meals and entertaining. Period touches such as the picture rail add character, while the chimneybreast with a large built-in storage cupboard to the side is both practical and attractive. A rear-facing window brings in natural light and gives views over the garden, while doors lead through to the kitchen and down to the cellar.
The off-shot kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with classic shaker-style units, offering storage above and below the worktop. Integrated appliances include a slimline dishwasher, fridge, electric oven and gas hob with extractor fan above. The sink sits beneath a window overlooking the rear garden, making it a bright and pleasant space to cook.
Upstairs on the first floor are two bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The spacious double at the front benefits from a useful storage cupboard tucked under the stairs. To the rear is a large single bedroom with views of the garden, which has also been used as a home office. The bathroom has been stylishly modernised by the current owners, featuring a large shower cubicle, WC, washbasin and towel radiator.
On the second floor, a further double bedroom enjoys natural light from a dormer window at the front. Built-in storage into the eaves at the rear makes clever use of the space and keeps the room practical as well as comfortable.
The cellar provides excellent storage and has plumbing for a washing machine, keeping the main living spaces free from clutter.
Outside, the front forecourt is approached by steps to the front door with pretty flowerbeds to the side. The rear garden, landscaped by the current owners, has been designed with both relaxation and entertaining in mind. Paved seating areas include a bench with log storage beneath, while raised flowerbeds and a pergola create a private and tranquil setting, perfect for BBQs, summer evenings, or simply unwinding with a book. Importantly, there are no rights of way across the garden from neighbouring properties.
