## Description

This five bedroom detached farmhouse is accompanied by a separate detached holiday cottage, range of outbuildings and land extending to 23.89 acres.

**Summary** - This five bedroom detached farmhouse is accompanied by a separate detached holiday cottage, range of outbuildings and land extending to 23.89 acres of which part has been used in recent years as a seasonal campsite enjoying the stunning views over the beautiful rolling Peak District National Park countryside toward the land mark of Thorpe Cloud

The accommodation does require complete modernisation and is of unique design but offers great scope for enhancement. 

Situated just three miles from the historic market town of Ashbourne which offers an excellent range of amenities popular for tourism and local alike.  

The land surrounds the property and farmyard with the modern agricultural building on the southern area of the yard perhaps offering potential for a residential conversion subject to obtaining necessary consent . 

Viewing essential to appreciate the stunning views which are not visible until you enter the property

**Accomodation** - The property is accessed from the main door which leads into the Entrance Porch which provides access to the Utility Room and Dining Room having exposed brick fire place and feature wall and door through to Kitchen which has a range of matching wall, drawer and base units with worksurface over and appliance space, feature ingle nook having the electric range cooker set within. External door providing alternative access.  

Steps lead from the Dining Room into the Inner Hall with external door to rear garden and internal door through to Sitting Room with stone hearth and chimney breast. Internal access door through to bar area with optics and space for seating, with steps and door leading to an upper level where there is a further Lounge with internal door through to the Study to the rear and Breakfast Room with door to front providing external access. Previously the Breakfast Room and Lounge annex has been considered to provide potential for a separate annex as there is independent access.

**First Floor** - The first floor landing is on the split level, the lower landing providing access to Bedrooms One and Two, with further steps leading to the higher level passage area which provides access to Bedroom Three, Four and Five along with the family Shower Room. 

Bedroom One and Two are on the western side of the property with Bedroom One being a spacious double bedroom enjoying views across the farmyard and Bedroom Two is a double room with ensuite shower room. 

Bedroom Three is on the higher level eastern edge of the property enjoying lovely views beyond the farm yard and benefitting from ensuite bathroom. The Family Shower Room is situated between Bedroom Three and Four and is fitted with a three piece shower suite, while Bedroom Four is also a double bedroom and Bedroom Five is a  spacious single bedroom.

**The Piggery (Holiday Accommodation)** - This property is situated across the farm yard from the main homestead  and we understand this former barn has planning consent to be used as holiday accommodation. The main front door leads into a Dining Kitchen which has a range of kitchen units to one wall and tiled floor with internal access door to Sitting Room and stairs rising to the first floor. The Sitting Room has beams to ceiling and exposed timbers with alternative access door to front.

On the first floor is a Landing area which is used to house bunk beds for additional guests with access to the Shower Room fitted with three piece shower suite and to the area used as the main Bedroom with exposed flooring and Velux roof light windows.

**Externally Gardens And Grounds** - The property is accessed from Wood Lane via a private access drive  which descends down to the property and opens out to reveal the stunning views over the rolling peak district countryside and the flattened peak of Thorpe Cloud.  There is a gated access drive which leads between the main homestead and Piggery or alternatively a track which leads around to the campsite and to the  lower level yard which provides vast amount of hardstanding and access to the large agricultural building. 

The formal gardens are on the south side of the property providing a patio seating area, lawn and disused outside swimming pool which is covered.

**Buildings** - A particular feature of the property is the versatility and range of building, the most impressive building perhaps being the general purpose agricultural buildings situated on the south west edge of the site and offering potential for a multitude of uses, perhaps even potential to convert for residential use subject to obtaining necessary consent. 

There is a storage building adjacent to the Piggery providing two storage rooms and attached to this building is a Garage/Workshop with double access doors.
