School Lane, Baslow, Bakewell

Occupying a central position in the historic heart of the highly sought-after village of Baslow, this is a rare opportunity to acquire the village shop together with a charming two-bedroom character stone cottage, currently operated as a successful holiday let.

Baslow is one of the Peak District’s most desirable and picturesque villages, attracting visitors throughout the year thanks to its beautiful surroundings, thriving community and close proximity to Chatsworth House and the stunning surrounding countryside.

The property offers an exciting opportunity to continue the long-established and well-supported village shop, which benefits from a loyal local customer base alongside a strong visitor trade. However, there is no obligation for a purchaser to continue operating the Post Office, offering considerable flexibility to tailor the business to individual requirements.

Subject to obtaining any necessary planning permissions and change of use consents, the premises also offer excellent potential for a variety of alternative commercial uses, such as a tea room, café, delicatessen, gallery, boutique retail space or other village business, allowing purchasers to create a venture that suits their own vision.

The sale includes the fixtures, fittings, stock and goodwill of the existing business, providing an excellent turnkey opportunity with an established reputation.

Adjoining the shop is a delightful stone cottage, full of original character and charm, offering well-presented accommodation comprising a welcoming sitting room, breakfast kitchen, two double bedrooms and a bathroom.

Outside, a small seating terrace provides an attractive space to enjoy the village surroundings. Currently operated as a successful holiday let, the cottage generates a valuable additional income stream and further enhances the appeal of this unique lifestyle, investment and business opportunity.
