Horseshoe Avenue, Buxton, SK17

Quietly positioned within a close-knit part of Dove Holes, this two-bedroom bungalow offers a slower pace of life, with a strong sense of community around it — a home that feels settled, comfortable, and full of possibility.

Set away from the main road, the property enjoys a calm residential setting where neighbours genuinely look out for one another. A good-length driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a detached garage, offering flexibility for storage, hobbies, or future alteration or connection to the main house, with a planning precedent already set locally (subject to the usual consents).

Inside, the single-level layout makes the home exceptionally adaptable. Two well-proportioned bedrooms are complemented by flexible reception space, while to the rear, a generously sized conservatory creates a bright and expansive additional living area. This space works beautifully as a second lounge, dining area, or garden room, with direct access out to the rear garden and a strong connection between indoor and outdoor living.

The layout lends itself equally well to those looking for easy, later-life living or to families who value flexible spaces and straightforward access throughout the home. Everything flows naturally, creating a practical, comfortable home that can adapt as needs change over time.

Both front and rear gardens provide outdoor space to enjoy year-round, with plenty of scope to personalise, landscape, or simply relax and enjoy the quieter surroundings. The home would benefit from updating in places, offering a genuine opportunity for a new owner to shape the space to their own tastes and requirements rather than working around someone else’s choices.

Dove Holes itself is a village with a long and proud history, shaped by its quarrying heritage and railway connections, and today it’s known for its welcoming, community-led feel. Local schools, everyday amenities, and well-used walking routes are close by, while Buxton, Chapel-en-le-Frith and the wider Peak District are easily reached. Two nearby train stations and strong road links make travel towards Manchester, Stockport and Sheffield straightforward, without sacrificing village life in one of the best residential villages in the High Peak.

Offering peace, flexibility, and long-term potential within a well-established community, this is a home that suits a wide range of buyers — whether you’re looking to settle, simplify, or grow into it over the years ahead.
