The Property
A Home with History, Character and a Story to Tell

A truly individual historic end-terrace, thoughtfully restored to celebrate its original beauty, with accommodation over three floors, a detached two-storey garage, private garden and access to a communal garden.

Some homes are simply different. This wonderfully characterful historic end-terrace is one of them, offering a rare opportunity to own a property where traditional craftsmanship and period features take centre stage. Carefully restored using traditional methods, it feels like stepping back in time, with original details and natural materials giving the home a warmth and personality that are hard to replicate.

From the limewashed walls and exposed beams to the timber sash windows, original-style floorboards and stone flooring, every element adds to the story of this distinctive home. Modern comforts have not been forgotten, with gas central heating and a multi-fuel stove providing a practical balance between historic charm and everyday living.

Three floors of characterful accommodation

The lower ground floor is home to the kitchen with a separate shower room off. This arrangement offers useful flexibility, with the kitchen providing a dedicated space for preparing meals and the shower room adding convenience to the layout.

On the ground floor, the living/dining room offers a inviting space providing room to relax, dine and enjoy the character of the property, with the multi-fuel stove adding an appealing focal point for cosy evenings at home. The traditional features create a setting that feels full of history without losing sight of how we live today.

Upstairs, the first-floor bedroom measures approximately 6.30m x 2.70m. Its generous length offers scope for a comfortable sleeping area alongside additional toilet and bath, while the period character continues throughout.

Outside, something a little different

The outdoor space adds another appealing dimension. A private garden provides somewhere to enjoy a morning coffee, spend time outdoors or simply have a little breathing space. There is also access to a communal garden, offering an additional shared outdoor area.

The detached two-storey garage is a particularly unusual feature offering superb additional space for anyone looking to store outdoor equipment or motor enthusiast looking for space to tinker with bikes or cars or subject to the buyer's intended use and any necessary permissions.

A village setting with countryside close by

Situated in Whaley Bridge, within the High Peak, the property enjoys a location surrounded by the character and scenery of the Peak District area.
