History & Setting
Ladyshawe House is a beautifully preserved Grade 2 Listed 18th-century former farmhouse, located just north of the centre of New Mills. Built in the classic Georgian style from local stone, the three-storey home formed part of the original Ladyshaw Bottom farmstead, which dates back to at least 1706. With its symmetrical frontage, stone mullioned windows, and elegant entrance, the house reflects the craftsmanship and proportions of its era.
The property retains numerous period details, including wide-panelled doors, exposed beams, tiled floors, and traditional joinery. A particularly distinctive feature is the cross-window above the main staircase, thought to have originated from an earlier structure on the site. The layout is both extensive and highly practical, comprising a central entrance hall, two generously sized reception rooms, and staircases leading to spacious, flexible bedroom accommodation arranged over two upper floors.
Ladyshawe House sits within a small, secluded community formed from the converted former barns and outbuildings of the original farmyard.
Despite its peaceful, private position, the house enjoys exceptional convenience, within walking distance of local shops, cafés, and train stations offering direct services to Manchester and Sheffield. Its edge-of-town location also places it within easy reach of the Peak District National Park, while excellent road links, including the A6 and nearby motorway connections, make commuting simple. For families, there are some “good” primary and secondary school just a short walk away, adding to the appeal of the location.
The Property
Entry is via an arched stone porch leading into a wide, welcoming hallway, from which you can access both main reception rooms, the kitchen, boot room, cellar, and a ground-floor shower room.
At the front of the house, the main living room enjoys views over the garden and side patio. It features a recently installed multi-fuel stove, deep-set mullioned windows with fitted window seats, and generous proportions. Opposite, the dining room echoes these qualities with another wide window and original fireplace now fitted with a gas fire.
The kitchen is well appointed with granite worktops, timber cabinetry, and a traditional aga. Original details combine with modern and the room opens into a side conservatory, offering additional space for informal dining or seating with garden views.
Across the hall, a spacious boot room offers excellent storage and links to a walk-in pantry and a ground-floor shower room, perfect after walks or outdoor activities. Beneath the kitchen, a vaulted cellar provides excellent cool storage or potential wine cellar use.
First & Second Floors
The first-floor landing is bright and open, currently arranged as a reading and work area with views over the garden. To one side lies the principal bedroom, which features south-facing views, deep window seats, and fitted wardrobes. Directly behind is the large family bathroom with a roll-top bath, walk-in shower, and countryside views.
On the opposite side of the landing is a self-contained apartment originally designed for a dependent relative. Comprising a bedroom, living room, kitchen, and shower room, with independent access from both the rear driveway and side garden, it’s perfectly suited to multigenerational living, guests, or potential rental use.
A further staircase leads to the second floor, where four additional double bedrooms are arranged around a generous landing, currently used as a small library. This upper level offers spacious and adaptable accommodation, ideal for families, guests, or home-working.
Outside
The gardens are a rare and tranquil feature, private, well-established, and thoughtfully landscaped. A large formal lawn is bordered by mature planting and a walled path leading to a gated entrance. The grounds include a natural brook, an old well, and several patio areas ideal for outdoor dining or quiet reflection.
To the rear, a private driveway provides off-street parking for two vehicles.
Additional Features
Recent upgrades include a state-of-the-art boiler system and whole-house WiFi mesh coverage, ensuring connectivity throughout
