Description
Offering four independent dwellings in total, Rock House Farm delivers exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living, long-term residential letting, or a combined home-and-income lifestyle in one of the region’s most desirable rural settings.
The three cottages represent a particularly strong opportunity for income generation, whether retained as residential rental properties or adapted (subject to any necessary consents) for alternative lifestyle or holiday accommodation use. Combined with the principal farmhouse, this creates a rare and highly adaptable holding with genuine income potential.
Set in an elevated position with far-reaching views across open countryside towards the Peak District and Staffordshire Moorlands, the property enjoys privacy, space and a highly sought-after rural location.
THE OPPORTUNITY

*FULL change of use for short or long erm let + multi generational living.
*Multi-generational family living across separate dwellings
*Long-term residential letting portfolio
*Live-in owner occupation with rental income from cottages
*Lifestyle investment or home-and-income arrangement
*Future reconfiguration for holiday accommodation use full change of use means short or long term let + multi generational)

THE FARMHOUSE
The principal residence is an attractive detached sandstone 3 bedroomed farmhouse full of character offering a warm and welcoming living environment. The farmhouse sits at the heart of the holding and enjoys privacy from the cottages while remaining closely connected to the wider grounds. Built of natural sandstone construction, traditional features and countryside views combine to create a highly desirable rural home with genuine presence.
THE COTTAGES
A key feature of Rock House Farm is the three cottages, each fully self-contained and positioned within the grounds to provide independence and privacy.
The cottages are of strong individual character and presentation, and represent the primary income-generating asset within the holding.
Their separation and layout make them highly suitable for:
*Residential rental accommodation
*Multi-generational family occupation
*Guest or dependent living arrangements
*Lifestyle or tourism-led use (subject to any necessary consents)
The scale and independence of the cottages offer significant income potential for the next owner.
