Denise White Agent Comments

A truly individual three bedroom detached barn conversion, enjoying a wonderful rural position at Town Head Farm in the hamlet of Elkstones, surrounded by open countryside within the Peak District National Park. Offering a superb combination of character, modern living and generous outside space, the property is an excellent opportunity for those seeking a home with a little more to offer than a conventional rental property.

Internally, the property provides a spacious open plan lounge and kitchen, creating an excellent main living and entertaining space. The lounge area is generous in proportion and benefits from two full-height windows to the front of the property, whilst the modern fitted kitchen provides a stylish and practical space with a substantial central island, range cooker and patio doors opening directly onto the rear garden.

The first floor retains the original character of the barn, with exposed stone walls, wooden beams and an attractive combination of natural wood and black metalwork to the staircase and landing. There are three bedrooms, including two good-sized doubles. The master bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, with a further bathroom serving the remaining accommodation.

Externally, the property continues to impress, with an enclosed rear garden providing a paved patio, established planting and lawn area. A gate leads through to a parking area, together with a substantial agricultural storage building providing an exceptional amount of storage space. Beyond the storage building is a further extensive garden area belonging to The Barn, enclosed by agricultural fencing and enjoying impressive countryside views.

Situated in a peaceful rural setting, the property is ideal for enjoying the tranquillity and beauty of the Peak District, with extensive countryside and walking opportunities close at hand, whilst retaining access to everyday amenities in nearby towns.

The Barn is a rare rental opportunity, combining a peaceful setting with characterful accommodation, generous outside space and excellent additional storage. An early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the setting and the space this property has to offer.
