An inviting entrance hall leads to a study, formal dining room and comfortable sitting room, where a log-burning stove creates a warm and welcoming focal point. Barn style arched doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a natural connection between the principal reception room and the outside space.

The fitted dining kitchen is well-equipped with a range of units and integrated appliances and flows through to a further lounge area.

The second floor offers two further double bedrooms together with a shower room, providing an excellent degree of flexibility for family living, guests or home working.

Externally, the property is approached via a gated private driveway, providing ample parking for multiple vehicles and leading to the substantial detached double garage. The garage benefits from an adjoining utility room and WC and offers exciting potential for conversion to a self-contained annex, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents.

The rear garden has been thoughtfully designed for ease of maintenance and incorporates established flower beds and borders, a seating terrace and a summer house, providing an attractive and private setting for outdoor entertaining and relaxation.

Offering substantial accommodation, excellent flexibility and considerable potential, all within one of the Peak District's most sought-after villages, this impressive home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached residence in the heart of Tideswell.
