Ostlers Lane, Cheddleton

A converted farmhouse with striking original features that rub shoulders with contemporary design and delightful surprises.

Tucked into a leafy nook in the historical village of Cheddleton, The Granary is bursting at the seams with characterful quirks. From the outside, this property looks just like a beautiful barn conversion, but step inside to discover its unique charms and hidden surprises.

Approach The Granary from Ostlers Lane and pull onto the tarmacadam driveway from the gated entrance. The large forecourt provides ample off-road parking for several vehicles and is enveloped by a dry-stone wall, shrubs and trees. Immediately, you’ll sense that The Granary is something quite special.



Bijou Summer House - Wander through the garden to discover cosy corners tucked away by lush borders. To the front and side elevations, pathways meander to an Indian stone paved patio and around to the rear garden you’ll find a secluded walled patio with hot tub and a bijou summer house. Complete with courtesy lighting, external power and a cold-water tap, the outdoor space cries out for outdoor entertaining and lingering summer evenings with BBQs and drinks.



Farmhouse Chic And Contemporary Design - Head towards the wooden portico and step into the main entrance hall, which gives an impressive introduction to what lies ahead. A part exposed brick and timber feature wall leads you to the spacious, open-plan kitchen and dining area. Wooden window shutters mingle with bespoke units, quartz worktops and integrated appliances to create a stylish contrast between traditional farmhouse chic and contemporary design. Dual-aspect windows allow natural light to flood in, and a breakfast island provides the perfect spot for enjoying your morning coffee. There’s also plenty of space for an 8 seater dining table, making it a wonderful hub for catching up with family and friends over a homemade feast.

Follow the inner hallway, past the ground floor cloakroom, to the fourth bedroom, which features an ensuite rainfall shower room with contemporary vertical radiator, and a walk-in wardrobe with motion sensor light.



Vaulted Ceiling With Exposed ‘A’ Frame Beams - Return to the hallway and as you enter the lounge, prepare to be seriously impressed. Ahead of you is a stunning vaulted ceiling and exposed ‘A’ frame beams that lie above a mezzanine area with a wrought iron balustrade and spiral staircase. A contemporary woodburning stove sits on a stone flagged hearth on the opposite side of the room, adding warmth and highlighting the lofty height of the space. Several windows and a Velux roof light invite natural light to filter through, giving the lounge a bright and airy feel. Wind your way up the spiral staircase to the mezzanine balcony, where you can create an office space or a tranquil reading spot.



A Secret Door Disguised As A Bookshelf - From the mezzanine you can access the master bedroom through a secret door, disguised as a bookshelf, or return to the entrance hall and make your way up the staircase. This room is certainly a showstopper with its exposed beamed ceiling, ensuite shower room and walk-in wardrobe.

Walk out from the master bedroom onto the landing, which features original exposed stonework and timberwork and leads you to a further two bedrooms and the family bathroom. Step into bedroom three, again, showcasing the property’s original features with exposed ceiling beams and part of the exposed ‘A’ frame.



Slipper Bath - Further along the landing, you’ll reach the main bathroom, a showy oasis perfect for a spot of pampering with the freestanding, slipper bath and a quaint slit window that lets you peek outside while you bathe.

Adjacent to the bathroom is bedroom two with the exposed timber ‘A’ frame taking centre stage. A window to the side elevation and a Velux roof light allows for plenty of light to flow in, creating a relaxing space for escaping the stresses of the day.
