WHAT THE OWNER SAYS
"We’ve absolutely loved living here. The kitchen/dining room has been the heart of the house and is perfect for entertaining all year round, but it really comes into its own in the summer with the bi-fold doors open to the garden, spilling straight out onto the patio for some great BBQs with friends and family. The living room is wonderfully cosy in the winter, yet stays cool and comfortable on hotter days.
It’s been a fantastic family home, with great-sized bedrooms for the children, and being able to walk them to both Lydgate and Tapton has been a real bonus. The garden is just the right size, plenty of space for kids and a dog to run around, without feeling like a big maintenance job. Having the Peak District right on the doorstep has been something we’ve appreciated every single day."
Accessed from the side of the house via a quiet alleyway, the entrance opens into a welcoming hallway with stairs rising to the upper floors. From here, the living room sits to the right, while the impressive dining kitchen lies to the left.
The dining kitchen is undoubtedly the heart of the home. Extended to the rear and filled with natural light from bi-folding doors opening onto the south-facing garden, it blends classic and contemporary style beautifully. Shaker-style units and quartz worktops run along one wall, set against exposed brickwork, steel and glass, creating a striking yet timeless backdrop. A large central island provides excellent additional storage, incorporates the sink and drainer, and doubles as a sociable breakfast bar. The dining area offers plenty of space for a large table and features exposed floorboards, wall panelling and a chimney breast with fireplace and bespoke storage.
The dining area comfortably accommodates a large table and features exposed floorboards, elegant wall panelling and a chimney breast with fireplace and bespoke storage. A door beneath the stairs provides access to the cellar head.
The living room is both spacious and cosy, with exposed floorboards, a bay window to the front and a striking chimney breast housing a wood-burning stove, flanked by bespoke fitted storage. Period features such as coving and picture rails remain, while the décor gives the room a modern, relaxed feel.
On the first floor, the main bedroom is a generous double with exposed floorboards, two front-facing windows and a useful storage cupboard. The second bedroom is another comfortable double, positioned to the rear and enjoying views over the garden. The bathroom is finished to a modern standard and includes a bath with handheld shower attachment, WC and a floating twin washbasin.
The second floor offers a further large double bedroom with a dormer window to the front, making it an ideal guest room, teenager’s space or home office.
Externally, the property has a low-maintenance forecourt to the front, with rear access via the side alleyway.
The south-facing rear garden begins with a patio directly off the kitchen, perfect for outdoor dining, and includes access to an outhouse with plumbing in place for a washing machine. Steps lead down to an artificial lawn bordered by flowerbeds, while at the far end of the garden sits a versatile garden room, ideal for use as a home office, gym or playroom.
