Description

£525,000 - £550,000 Guide Price

This is a rare and versatile opportunity to acquire a distinctive mixed-use property set within an attractive rural setting, combining a commercial ground floor with residential accommodation above. Located within easy reach of the excellent amenities of Bakewell and Buxton and falling within the sought-after Lady Manners School catchment, the property offers both lifestyle appeal and strong future potential.

Steeped in local history, the building is believed to have evolved from a traditional farmhouse into a coaching inn with potential letting rooms and an events venue. This rich heritage is still evident throughout, with many retained period features adding character and authenticity, while the overall layout provides spacious and highly flexible accommodation suited to a wide range of uses.

The ground floor commercial space opens up possibilities for business use, while the first-floor living accommodation is generous and adaptable, making it equally suitable for continued residential occupation or reconfiguration. The property lends itself naturally to a variety of future schemes, including updating and conversion back into letting rooms, the creation of two holiday lets, or transformation into a large multi-generational home, all subject to the necessary planning consents.

Externally, the setting is just as compelling, with substantial off-road parking including a dedicated car park, along with a paddock and countryside views that stretch across the surrounding landscape. The inclusion of stables and is set within approximately 2.6 acres of land, offers clear appeal for those seeking an equestrian lifestyle, formally a campsite, while also enhancing the property’s flexibility.

Altogether, this is a unique property that combines history, space and adaptability in a highly desirable location, offering significant scope for further development or business use while enjoying the tranquillity of the countryside.
