Atlow is a quiet ancient settlement some 5 miles north east of Ashbourne in the Derbyshire Dales and close to Carsington Water.
Directions - Satnav will direct you to Atlow village. Once there, by the green proceed over the hump back bridge and up the lane. Take the left fork and then turn left at the sign Atlow Moat and Farm. Proceed up the lane a short distance where there is parking on the left hand side and you can walk up to the property. The property is accurately shown on Google Maps.
This wonderful Grade II listed barn conversion is accessed via a double glazed entrance door directly into the attractive open plan kitchen dining room which has tiled flooring and some interesting character features. The kitchen area is fitted with an extensive range of base and wall units surmounted by roll edge work surfaces with inset stainless steel sink and mixer tap having tiled splashbacks and worktop lighting. There is an inset AEG induction hob with stainless steel splash back and matching extractor hood over plus an AEG competence double electric oven and grill, and integrated dishwasher. There is space for an upright fridge freezer, a useful under stairs cupboard and a hand built pine staircase leading off.
Directly off the dining area is a cloaks/utility room having tiled flooring and low level WC, base and wall units, plumbing for an automatic washing machine, inset sink and mixer tap, and tiled splash backs.
Also from the dining area double doors open into the cosy sitting room which has a double glazed French door out to the front enjoying wonderful views over the garden and grounds. It also has a contemporary log burner fitted to the corner with a tiled hearth and exposed beams.
On the first floor is a feature split level landing having fabulous exposed roof trusses and other timberwork together with a hand built pine balustrade and stairs off leading to a further useful loft room with useful eaves storage and a velux roof light. This room would make an excellent accessible storage area or children's den.
There are three attractive double bedrooms, one with a vaulted ceiling and exposed roof trusses, enjoying wonderful views. Bedroom three has a double glazed door onto an external stone feature staircase and enjoys across the grounds plus an exposed roof truss to the wall. Adjacent to this is the bathroom having a shaped bath in tiled surrounds with thermostatic shower over and glazed screen, integrated WC and wash hand basin with useful cupboards above.
Outside - There are two communal car parking spaces off the drive and a useful storage/workshop space within the adjacent barn. A stone patio and lawn lie adjacent to the front of the barn plus access to the 21 acres of communal grounds.
The Old Stables is one of eight privately owned homes in a co-housing community in this beautiful valley within rural Derbyshire. All of the buildings are Grade II listed with a rich heritage. The owners share 21 acres of land which is managed primarily for nature conservation and increasing bio-diversity on a Nature England Environment Stewardship Scheme. Eco-friendly communal services include a reed bed water drainage system and a central wood chip boiler for communal central heating and domestic hot water. There are also shared outbuilding available for storage, workshop space, community meetings and social events.
The land predominantly comprises a park-like setting bounded by the Henmore Brook and within which lies the Atlow Moat which is an ancient monument together with an additional area of ancient woodland, small pasture, orchards and allotment gardens providing endless opportunities for self sufficiency.
