Detached House - Hope Valley
A substantial stone built house hidden behind a high stone wall on the edge of the village which we understand was constructed circa 1790. A pair of stone gateposts leads to an area of off road parking with further gates to the cottage and buildings, which are also accessible from a separate rear access off the road. A front porch area leads into an entrance lobby and into a wonderful main hallway giving access to all the principal ground floor rooms and a staircase to the first floor. To the left of the hall is a lovely light dual aspect drawing room with windows overlooking the garden and fireplace with working grate. To the right of the hall is the study/sitting room with fireplace and a window also overlooking the garden. At the rear of the house and off the inner hall is the large, part panelled dining room with stone fireplace and the kitchen/breakfast room. A large dining area opens into the kitchen with central island unit, four oven AGA and a good range of wall and base units with granite work surfaces. Off the kitchen is a large sitting /family room with fireplace and built-in bookcase with cupboards below. Also accessed from the kitchen is a second serving kitchen, the back door and a large laundry room. The inner hallway has a guest cloakroom off and stairs leading down to the cellar which has been converted into a playroom. To the first floor is an excellent master bedroom suite comprising: bedroom, bathroom and large dressing room/further bedroom. There is a guest suite of rooms comprising two bedrooms and a bathroom; three further double bedrooms, one with an en suite bathroom, and separate family bathroom. A rear staircase from the ground floor leads to a second floor flat with sitting room, kitchenette, bedroom and bathroom. The back door leads out to an enclosed courtyard with, to one side, a single storey building offering great further potential subject to planning. A doorway from the courtyard leads to a lovely stone flagged terrace with raised border surrounds and steps down to a large lawn to the front of the house, which in turn leads to further stone steps down to another large lawned area. A gate from the stone terrace leads out to a side garden and vegetable garden, which has a wrought iron gate leading onto the parkland. To the rear of the house is a large car port which our clients have consent to demolish and construct a double garage. To the rear of the cottage is a range of garages with space for up to five cars; adjacent to this is a low stone building with potential for various uses. Eyam View Farm is situated at the corner of the courtyard of buildings and briefly comprises: entrance hall with cloakroom off, large sitting/dining room, kitchen/breakfast room, three double bedrooms and bathroom. Adjoining the cottage and to one of the other sides of the courtyard is a two storey, stone built building with to the other side of the courtyard a single storey building with two arched, open fronted car ports. There is planning consent to convert the buildings into holiday cottages or alternatively they could be used for a variety of other purposes (subject to planning). The grazing land is made up of lovely open parkland with planted copses and various other fields and extends to approximately 25 acres.
