Description
In the heart of the sought-after Peak District village of Great Longstone, this charming stone-built three double bedroom cottage is steeped in local history, having once formed part of the warehouse for the former cotton mill. Skillfully renovated by the present owners, it combines period features with modern comforts, creating a home of character and style arranged across three floors, with outdoor space designed for both practicality and enjoyment.
Great Longstone is a quintessential Derbyshire village, surrounded by glorious countryside and a network of scenic walks and cycle routes. The village offers excellent local amenities including two popular pubs, a primary school, village shop and a thriving community, while the nearby market town of Bakewell provides further facilities. Its location within the Peak District National Park makes it an ideal base for those seeking both village life and easy access to the outdoors.
The property opens with an entrance lobby leading into a delightful sitting room, where a sash window, exposed beams and a gritstone fireplace housing a log-burning stove create an inviting atmosphere. At the heart of the home, the generous dining kitchen is fitted with a range of units and appliances, finished with a stone flagged floor and benefitting from underfloor heating.
On the first floor, the landing leads to a well-proportioned double bedroom with built-in storage, a second double bedroom and a stylish bathroom also enjoying underfloor heating. The second floor is dedicated to a further double bedroom with built-in storage and its own en-suite shower room.
Externally, the rear of the property features a stone-built utility, an exterior WC and a terrace for outdoor dining and entertaining and steps that rise to an elevated seating terrace, perfectly positioned to enjoy the surrounding views.
