Woodeaves Cottage

Step inside the entrance hall with tiled flooring and useful under stairs space. A delightful sitting room has a Derbyshire stone fireplace with open fire and hearth, laminate flooring, cosy dining space and dual aspect windows overlooking the garden and brook.

The kitchen is in a cottage style and equipped with a range of base and wall units with worksurfaces incorporating an inset one and a half bowl sink with mixer tap, tiled splash backs and worktop lighting together with a built in glazed unit that has cupboards below and illuminated wall cupboards. Integrated appliances include a gas hob with extractor hood over, electric fan oven, dishwasher, fridge and automatic washing machine. A door opens to the staircase leading to the first floor.

The bathroom has a three-piece suite, a useful built-in cupboard, tiled walls, tiled floor and a chrome heated towel rail.

On the first floor are two very attractive cottage style bedrooms each with distinctive views over the garden and brook. The master bedroom comes with built in wardrobes.

Access to the property is off a lane with gates to a block paved drive immediately in front of the cottage. Further up the side lane is an additional extensive block paved driveway with parking for several vehicles and giving access to the detached brick garage/outbuilding which comprises a garage/workshop, utility area with cupboards, sink and appliances spaces, power points and lights. Within the building are three former stables currently used as a store together with a separate office and gym all with power and lights. Ladder access leads to a large loft area with windows either end and a full length carport to the side. The building is of modern construction and subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission has the potential for conversion into an annex or possibly a holiday let.

The delightful gardens extend to 1.06 acres overall including a separate paddock/orchard across the road which comes with its own well.
The main gardens are laid extensively to lawn and have paved patio areas with mature tree screening bisected by the Bentley Brook. Adjoining the cottage is an attractive patio area and garden accessed via a picturesque foot bridge with views of the stone bridge located on the lane. The cottage sits well above the brook and we understand includes Riparian rights.

Planning permission was granted in 2016 by the Peak District National Park Authority ref NP/DDD/2016/099 for a two storey side extension to the cottage and it is likely that this could be renewed, subject to discussion with the authority.
