3 bedroom detached house for sale

A fantastic opportunity to purchase a historic country farmhouse, range of stone barns with previous planning consent, additional outbuildings, a woodland and surrounding grassland all extending to a total of 9.75 acres (3.95 hectares).
The property occupies a wonderful position within the Peak District National Park.

History - The property has a fascinating history. Its existence is recorded in 1244 as Nedham and in 1541 as Nedeham Grange. The dwelling dates to the 17th century whilst the courtyard has a range of 16th and 19th century buildings. There is evidence of the medieval structures in adjacent fields. The house is the origin of the Needham surname.
The property is categorised a Heritage Asset, and belonged to the Chatsworth Estate until the 1960’s. The current owners purchased in 1990 to secure the property back into the ‘Needham name’ and undertook a refurbishment programme to the farmhouse.
In 2021 planning was granted for conversion of the stone barns into holiday cottages and in 2022 consent was granted for an extension to the existing dwelling.

The Farmhouse - The farmhouse has accommodation across two floors, with the previously consented planning permission to develop further living space into the adjoining two storey stone barn.
Entering through the stone surround front door, a hallway greets with entrance into the sitting room, and the spacious study on the right, and a staircase to the first floor. Passing through the sitting room, the kitchen currently lies to the west of the farmhouse with views across the land to the rear of the property.
On the first floor, an open landing leads into three double bedrooms, a family bathroom and an airing cupboard. The adjoining two storey barn has planning consent granted for a further double bedroom on the first floor, with ensuite facilities, and a larger kitchen on the ground floor with a ground floor wc adjacent.
Please refer to the floorplan for further information.
There is a large driveway with ample parking whilst gardens lie to the front, side and rear of the farmhouse.

Outbuildings - The traditional stone barns are situated around the original courtyard, and have planning consent granted to convert into three holiday cottages. The sensitive design will see the vehicles parked to the rear of the property. A more modern building lies to the rear, although this would be demolished if the consent were implemented.

Land - The grassland at the property extends to a total of 6.78 acres (2.76 hectares) and is divided into four paddocks, three to the side and rear of the farmhouse and one just across the road. Bounded by dry stone walling, the land has had no inputs for many years and provides a wildlife haven. In addition, a parcel of woodland (circa 1.97 acres (0.79 hectares)) sits to the rear of the farmhouse and buildings and contains a variety of trees, adding to the amenity of the property.
